Answer

chicken, tuna, protein shake is brill. Eggs are ok but if you’re cutting they’re only around 6g of protein per egg. When I was cutting I was on 155g protein a day so didn’t really touch the sides as the main protein but a good snack! Xx

Answer

Boneless skinless chicken breast, non-fat Greek yogurt or skyrr, egg whites, Whey isolate protein powder, quinoa, lentils, tofu, buckwheat… the list goes on. However, I do recommend having some healthy fats peppered into your diet.
