I've lost a little under 40 pounds in the past 8 months, trying to hit 135ish before switching to maintenance (I'm 5'6 and 141 currently). I average about 1500 calories daily with 70 grams of protein, 200 grams of carbs, and 50 grams of fat, plus 31 grams of fiber (generally without supplements).
I know this fits within broad recommendations but most advice and recommendations I see for weight loss encourage significantly more protein, usually around 100 grams. Whenever I see people online post high protein meals, they're low fiber, like 5 grams or less. But most of the high-fiber meals I fall back on have less than 25 grams of protein, which makes hitting 100+ grams feel impossible without adding significant calories or supplements.
Does anyone have advice for cheap meals that are high protein and also actually high fiber? Also, should I even be that concerned about changing my macros/upping protein?
