Goal: 2 lbs / week loss and aim for 155 lbs, lose fat, keep muscle & water

Diet summary: emphasize protein, fat, carbs in that order; 1500 calories consumed

Breakfast:

Question:

I hear protein quality is different from animal vs plant based. Is protein from egg whites, lentils, chicken breast the same? If i have high protein and water diet, will i lose mostly only fat?

Comment:

My weight has been stable for years so I want to “reset.” I feel like the 30 lbs overweight is like having a $30,000 loan. Pay it off for me, give me a reset, and then I can maintain by acting like a normal person.

THANK YOU!
