Struggling to Lose Belly Fat? My Protein Rules for Guaranteed Fat Loss

About this video

Kane sets out the protein rules she says she uses with coaching clients for fat loss. She argues animal proteins are complete and bioavailable while plant proteins are incomplete and must be combined and eaten in much larger volumes, so she builds intake around animal foods. Her target is one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight — the weight you want to be, not your current weight — and she warns that the weight of meat is not its protein content. Her framework is a pound of meat, four eggs and one to two cups of dairy, swapping in more eggs or meat if either is not tolerated. She suggests at least half the meat be beef so fat energy is not too low, and advises people who eat little to ramp up gradually over weeks.

Key takeaways

• Kane’s target: 1g of protein per pound of ideal body weight
• Kane claims people keep eating until protein needs are met, so low-protein eating drives snacking and cravings
• Kane’s daily baseline is one pound of meat, four eggs and one to two cups of dairy
• Kane warns that 140g of ground beef contains only about 35g of protein — food weight is not protein weight
• Kane suggests making at least half the meat beef to avoid an overly lean, low-energy intake
• Kane advises increasing intake gradually over weeks if you currently eat very little
