Do you weigh all your food

i have a food scale and i use it EVERY time i cook

i have a food scale and i use it EVERY time i cook

weird although there are a few options that could be causing this
a) food scale is wrong
b) regular scale is wrong
c) water retention (common early in a diet)
d) your metabolism is cooked

400 gram of breast chicken .

Also it’s not only about calories. Walk at least 15,000 steps a day and look how you will lose weight

Nothings wrong, it’s just that it’s too much and won’t be any better than 200 gram for example

Are you gymming as well?

Protein is HELLA overrated.

400 g breast chicken will only make you eat more calories it won’t give any more than that in terms of muscle mass. Your body has a plateau for how much protein it can absorb, for 99.9999% of people eating more than 140 grams of of protein (considering they’re natural) will only give them useless calories that they could instead exchange with carbs (which is FAR more beneficial for muscle mass). Your MPS has a certain point (plateau) where after specific amount of protein is absorbed, it won’t contribute to anything except for MAYBE, just maybe some energy which carbs is better for anyway. So once you hit that plateau it doesn’t cause further hypertrophy, you’re just eating pointless calories atp.

People overrate protein SO FUCKING MUCH.
You need to eat your minimum effective dose of protein and leave the rest of your calories for carbs which are FAR MORE IMPORTANT FOR BUILDING MUSCLE, so stop overeating protein and torturing yourself and start eating more carbs.

If you want you can DM me or talk to me on your profile/here and I will help you

So true especially nattys overrate protein so hard

Are you tracking food as cooked or raw? 300g of raw chicken breast is around 300-330 calories, 300g cooked chicken breast is around 500 calories.

Eat fewer eggs, less chicken breast and more rice and do your cardio
