In this episode we talk about how to make cut phases (intentional calorie deficits) easier with different types of foods and a few KEYS to plan for to make the most out of them!Utilize leaner proteins like greek yogurt (80ish cal and low sugar), cottage cheese (good culture is the best brand I recommend), egg whites, fish, chicken, shrimp and pork chops.A lot of veggies, including less starchy veggies.More fermented foods like pickles, lower carb veggies like cauliflower rice are a great addition to add into regular rice to make it more voluminous without all the carbs. Pick lighter breads i.e. Dave's killer THIN is 70cal vs the regular slice which is 110 cal, high fiber wraps (50-90 cal) which are great for breakfast burritos with egg whites and veggies.Citrus fruits and berries are less cals and more voluminous than other fruits.Water, sparkling water, tea and iced coffee vs lattesIt is normal to be a bit tired, feel not as energetic so just trying to prioritize sleep can be helpful! Join our Facebook community HEREClick HERE to learn more about our Metabolic Prehab™️ program!Connect with us:Website lsn.fitInstagram @lsn.coach@lizromannutrition @beccachilcz_nutritionEmail: liz@lsn.fit or becca@lsn.fitAffiliate partners:1stPhorm - Digestive Enzymes, Greens, Protein (Fruit D Loop is one of our favorites!)Magic Spoon - use coupon code 'LSN'Top Notch Nutrition - Sleep, Hydrate (Orange Mango is our favorite!)Built Bar - use coupon code 'LSN'
