Eat More Protein

Finally, the last weight loss strategy for fast weight loss that we’re going to look at today is to eat more protein.

Protein is essential for muscle growth and repair, and as we discovered earlier, lean muscle mass increases will result in an increase in your metabolism, so you burn calories faster.

Not only will protein assist with weight loss in this manner, though, but it turns out that it can be beneficial in other ways too. Protein is thermogenic, which means that the body struggles to digest it and break it down as quickly as fats and carbs. To digest protein, the body will be forced to work harder and your metabolism will be forced to increase, resulting in more calories being burnt.

Not only that, but because protein takes longer to digest, it stays in your system for longer and keeps you feeling full for longer so you’ll consume fewer calories and will stay full for longer.
