Today I went to Jenny Craig for my "monthly" check up. I was telling her how unsure I am of how much protein I should be eating for breakfast and lunch (especially if it's not straight-forward like weighing a piece of chicken). So here's what I learned that I'm sharing with you:
1 oz. of protein for breakfast
2 oz. of protein for lunch
4 oz. of protein for dinner if you're an active person
When I'm eating cereal or some other kind of meal that does not have any protein then you must add it to balance your diet out. Examples of lean protein JC suggests to have with your meals: fat-free cottage cheese or low-fat string cheese.
