No, mine wants me to eat at least half my protein, but wants me to do protein shakes or bullets too. Its hard to eat 80-120 g of protein in a day (depening on your weight).He says you will lose faster if you keep your proteins up because your muscles are burning calories almost like running a track.... Though you don't get the cardio bennefits. I drink and eat protein daily and I am losing more rapidly than my mom and sister... Just make sure it's high protein and low in far, sugar, and calories.
