273. How to Increase Protein WITHOUT Gaining Weight


Listen Later

Is it possible to increase your protein intake and NOT simultaneously gain weight? YES!

In this shortie episode, I’m addressing a very common nutrition concern among women - whenever they try to increase their protein intake up to the recommended amount, they end up “packing on the pounds”.

You’re going to learn:

  • The ideal amount of protein for women and what that actually relates to in a real meal
  • The Big 2 Reasons why adding more protein to your diet might make you gain weight
  • Exactly what to think about with your meals to ensure you’re reaching your goals
  • Taking listener questions!!! Do you have a question about your self-care that you need help with? Just head to www.vigeofit.com/ask to submit your question, and I’ll answer it for you on an upcoming Friday episode.
