Lecithin is important in cleaning the liver (our best detoxing and fat burning organ!) and it intervenes with the body’s ability to form fat deposits. It can be found in many foods such as cabbage, cauliflower, garbanzo beans, seeds, nuts and eggs. Egg yolks are the best source especially when you eat the yolk lightly cooked, like a soft-boiled egg. You can also buy supplements, but it’s not as good and wholesome.

It’s key to have a high protein intake on P3. Protein requires more energy to digest than other foods and helps you to burn more calories which will help with weight loss in P3. Protein foods also help to slow down the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream which reduces hunger by reducing insulin levels and making it easier for the body to burn fat. Yipee for protein!

Don’t overlook having fiber in your diet. Fiber helps to slow down, and sometimes even block, the absorption of some calories.

There are so many sources of fiber. Fruit is good, the best being an apple, but also blueberries, strawberries and raspberries. Green veggies such as broccoli and leafy greens. Other great sources are beans, although some stay away from beans while under maintenance as they are more starchy. Flax seeds and chia seeds are excellent sources of fiber, try adding them to yogurt, protein shakes or my steel cut oats.

Protein is key for our diets especially if we work out. It’s essential for the development of our muscles. Our muscles work hard for us-burning calories & keeping our metabolism up. If we don’t eat enough protein our bodies steal it from our muscles and organs. It curbs our appetite & balances blood sugar. When you eat more protein you feel fuller longer & you have more energy. So make sure you are getting enough!
