So I do partake in at least one protein shake or protein bar a day, however, I've been thinking I'm great at tracking my calorie but I really have no clue how much protein I eat in a day (and am guessing I don't get enough).
So starting today I'm going to start tracking my protein and I'm going to try my best to reach my daily goal of 105g of protein.
How did I come to this number?! Well I googled "How much protein should I eat?" This is what I found:
For a healthy woman whose goal is to tone while losing weight you take .5 to .75 X your body weight to find your magic protein number.
So now the trick will be staying within my calorie intake which for me is 1530 ( I figured it out on my fitness pal its my "lose a half pound a week" number) **I also always do my best to eat back 1/2 the calories I burn when I work out**
On another note we officially kicked of the 2013 Boating Season this weekend!!
I even had time for a #flexbreak
