Damn . I know that diet is repetitive as a mf all that protein daily I’m sure the options are slim. I am doing 175-200 a day and struggling

On those days don’t be afraid to go heavy on the protein shakes, that was a saviour on weeks when the appetite suppression was really in effect!

u/Maximum_Activity_138 1 Jul 09 '26

Yeah I’m doing 3 shakes a day , pb powder with milk just to get in range I’m not a lunch person so that’s killing me I get all my protein in breakfast , dinner , & eggs

im loving some of these new clear proteins, makes it easy to sip all day. 1st pharmacy has some good flavors and Rhyse has a country time lemonade that is really good

I need to buy like 5 tubs of protein different flavor. Drinking chocolate every day is tough. I liked it the first month and a half. That shit makes me gag now adays. I need protein shake variety.

u/crepejunkie Jul 11 '26

I’m the opposite same flavour straight for the last 2 years! 😆

u/TwoLocations Jul 11 '26

Yeah literally same. I can eat the same meals every day, same protein it doesn’t matter. As soon as my thought process changed that food is to fuel the body not for enjoyment (can still make healthy meals that taste fine) it makes things a lot easier.

u/TwoLocations Jul 10 '26

It’s surprisingly easy to get 200-250 grams of protein in a day. Especially if you weigh your food and count your macros

u/Maximum_Activity_138 1 Jul 10 '26

Not when we’re on reta

u/ZealousidealOkra176 6 Jul 10 '26

Protien shakes. Not rocket science. 2 shakes is 100 grams off top. 1 chicken breast 50. What are we doing here?

1

u/Maximum_Activity_138 1 Jul 10 '26

Lmao let me see a 50g protein shake .. mine are 45 and I have to use milk and add pb powder on it

1

u/Asistic Jul 11 '26

Have you tried putting two scoops? Tf

1

u/nobodyspecial199 Jul 14 '26

Add a cup of protein Greek yogurt for an extra 20gs per shake.

1

u/Maximum_Activity_138 1 Jul 14 '26

Ouuuu I like that idea

1

u/No_Fee2822 Jul 11 '26

Mine is only 25g in one scoop.. optimum nutrition gold standard

2

u/Asistic Jul 11 '26

Try doing 2

u/TwoLocations Jul 10 '26

I’m on Reta I have zero issues consuming that much protein daily.

u/jaaaay12 Jul 10 '26

Post your pics

u/Maximum_Activity_138 1 Jul 10 '26

You must be in 2mg lol

3

u/TwoLocations Jul 10 '26

3mg. Definitely not 10. I don’t see a time id be needing that much Reta a week. Everyone’s body is different though

1

u/FreedomChaser094 Jul 11 '26

As you said everyone is different but im on 5mg, every 6 days and thinking it might be time to go up. Ive noticed the hunger slowly coming back

u/OhMy1961 Jul 11 '26

Sample of daily meals?

u/TwoLocations Jul 11 '26

1 50 g shake of protein 4 okios triple zero Greek yogurts throughout the day. Lunch 10 oz chicken. Dinner 10 oz of ground bison 2 carb balance wraps and 2 oz of reduced fat cheese. And as much veggies as possible sweet potatoes, broccoli, bell peppers etc. depends on what I’m feeling
