A study published in Nutrition Metabolism showed that women who increased their protein intake from 10-15% to 30% of their diet ...

Ate nearly 450 fewer calories a day (without even trying)

and ...

Lost about 11 pounds over the 12-week study with no other dietary changes.

Another study found that a diet of about 25% protein
- reduced blood pressure

- reduced LDL cholesterol levels, and

- reduced triglycerides better than a traditional higher-carb diet.

Yet about a third of women don't get their recommended daily amount of protein, (according to USDA data).

Remember,

- A high protein diet can help you lose weight by making you feel fuller for longer

- 1 gram of protein requires 5 to 6 times the calories for processing versus a gram of carbs

- Protein helps prevent prevent muscle loss typically associated with aging

You should be getting 0.7-1 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight, or 105-150 grams if you weigh 150lb.

It may sound really good and may even “work“– but only to a barely discernible degree and with a huge expenditure of your valuable time. Don’t waste your time with isolated spot reduction exercises. Compound exercises (that’s using multiple joints) are far more efficient and effective. Here's proof ... Experimenters asked one group of women to do upper body exercises only while another group did lower body exercises only. Both groups of women lost fat in the same pattern regardless of what exercises they did. Where you gain fat - and where you
