What's behind this expansion of our offerings and the increased focus on protein? What does this mean for you in your day-to-day meals?

Bret describes the rationale for increasing protein, such as greater loss of body fat and preservation of lean muscle. Importantly, by prioritizing protein, you may prevent weight loss stalls.
Kriste shares how she has been experimenting with higher protein meals the past few months, what she has found easy, and what she has found challenging. She also shares that by increasing the amount of protein she has been eating, she has indeed been able to lose a few more pounds.
