Do THIS for Guaranteed Weight Loss (30g Protein Trick)
About this video
Kane argues the biggest driver of weight gain is not fat or sugar but too little protein. Citing what she calls protein-leverage research, she says people keep eating until they hit their protein needs, so low-protein foods like donuts, salads, and apples leave them hungry and overeating. Her prescription is a minimum of 1 gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight, ramped up gradually, starting with roughly 30 grams at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She gives portion shortcuts (a palm-sized 4–5 ounces of most meats equals about 30 grams), warns the scale misleads because of water fluctuation and muscle gain, suggests tracking waist measurements and photos instead, and walks through a full week of 21 sample meals.
