I was on a IV for 24 hours when I was in
Mexico, so I actually gained 3 lbs.
Protein will build muscle which in turn will burn the fat on your body. I know when I did Nutrisystem they actually added protein powder to 99% of their food, thats why their food works so well. They add soy bean protein powder. You almost have to get used to the slight taste as its in your dinner, your evening brownie etc. You need between 60 - 80 grams of protein a day once you are able to get there on this diet. I know Im not there, and not hardly losing because of it. Maybe it would be better to say Protein will give you more energy?
