Secret # 9: Get Enough Protein

Decide which kinds of lean protein you enjoy most and have them available in a convenient form at all times. Try some new kinds of protein, like protein powder, protein bars and hummus. Remember that one ounce of protein is about the size of one-third of a deck of cards. If you like fish, make it your new best friend. If you don't, find other lean protein sources to love. Package chicken, turkey and other frozen meats in single-serving bags in the freezer. Always have some hard boiled eggs in the fridge for a nice, filling, healthy snack.
