I have a problem eating all the proteins recommended.
As at 20 yo my weight was around 50 kg, for a height of 1.70m, I take this to be the number for my lean body mass (or should I have a doxa test?), and I aim to eat 50 g of proteins a day, which isn’t much but I am used to eat way way less proteins. Maybe this was a reason why I got so off-balance, don’t know.
Could I lower that amount? by how much? the problem is that eating 25g of proteins a meal satiates me so much that then I don’t have desire for fats (my metabolism must be really deranged). I am used to european sizing, which is much smaller than american sizing of meals. I wish I had also a european sizing of my belly grr…
I am at a point in the 2ketodudes podcast where they talk of the protein rate controversy, did he get solved? could I have say, 0.60g/kg of LBM or is that crazy? or should I try to get that value to the 1g/kg of LBM?
I am a woman and sedentary, because of joint pain and just too much weight to carry for my small frame.
I guess the difficulty is that I detest steaks, I am used to eat meat asian style, mixed up with vegetables. That or I like chicken thighs, but in small quantity, more is nauseating. I love eggs but, can I eat 180 g of eggs every day (4 small eggs, in france they’re usually quite small)?
In the same way also my 13 yo son, who’s very tall and lean and fit, would have a hard time keeping up with 50g a day of proteins, which is the value I found on the net for his age and weight. He doesn’t eat so much, his friends don’t eat too much either. Here they don’t tend to eat crap, they just don’t care so much about eating and are usually very slender and fit. So I don’t know if I should force him to change things and eat more proteins too.
