Introduction: Hello! I'm Dr. Cary Yurkiw, a health coach, marathon runner, health professional, business consultant, and author. At True North Coaching, I'm dedicated to helping you achieve sustainable weight loss through holistic and personalized strategies. Today, I want to talk about the crucial role of protein in weight loss. Join me in my upcoming webinar, "Welcome to the Transformative Weight Loss: Strategies for Sustainable Health," on July 4th at 7 PM PT, where we'll explore this topic in depth.

Why Protein is Essential for Weight Loss: Protein is a vital macronutrient that plays several important roles in your body, especially regarding weight loss. Including sufficient protein in your diet can help you lose weight healthily and sustainably.

Benefits of Protein for Weight Loss:

  1. Boosts Metabolism: Protein has a high thermic effect, meaning your body burns more calories digesting protein than fats and carbohydrates. This can help increase your metabolism and support weight loss.

  2. Promotes Satiety: Eating protein-rich foods can help you feel fuller for longer, reducing overall calorie intake. This can prevent overeating and snacking on unhealthy foods.

  3. Preserve Lean Muscle Mass: When you lose weight, it's essential to maintain your muscle mass. Protein supports muscle repair and growth, ensuring you lose fat, not muscle.

  4. Supports Overall Health: Protein is essential for the repair and maintenance of tissues, the production of enzymes and hormones, and overall immune function. A healthy body is better equipped to achieve and maintain weight loss.

Sources of High-Quality Protein: Incorporate a variety of protein sources into your diet to ensure you're getting all the essential amino acids your body needs. Some excellent sources include:

  • Lean meats (chicken, turkey, lean beef)

  • Fish and seafood

  • Eggs

  • Dairy products (Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, milk)

  • Plant-based proteins (beans, lentils, tofu, quinoa, nuts, and seeds)

Tips for Including More Protein in Your Diet:

  • Start your day with a high-protein breakfast like eggs or Greek yogurt.

  • Include a source of protein in every meal and snack.

  • Choose protein-rich snacks like nuts, seeds, and cheese.

  • Incorporate plant-based proteins into your meals for variety and added nutrients.
