What This Meal Plan Is All About
The great thing about eating meals rich in high quality protein, fat and fiber is that it removes the “need” to count calories.
Each of these food sources raises our satiety hormones peptide YY, CCK and GLP-1 that signal to our brain that we don’t need to keep eating.
This approach is called “ad libitum” eating, which means you get to eat until you’re satisfied. And there’s a lot of research showing that it’s a great tool for sustainable fat loss.(1)
The reported benefits include:
- fat loss
- reduced hunger
- reduced sugar cravings
- increased fat burning due to less muscle loss
- reduced waist circumference (aka belly fat)
- natural reduction of intake due to reduced hunger (as high as 440 calories lower per day)
High protein is great, but to reap all of the weight loss and wellness benefits of food, I’ve also created this meal plan to be rich in high quality sources of fat, low glycemic load carbohydrates and fiber.
These help to provide important micronutrients needed for longevity and health, the fuel our gut bacteria needs to thrive and antioxidants to help reduce inflammation.
This is the same structure our Body Recomposition Program follows with over 50 recipes and 6 weeks of meal planning.

Today’s free 5 Day High Protein Meal Plan also emphasizes a three meal structure without any snacks. This is because research shows we feel more satisfied with 3 larger meals instead of 6 smaller meals throughout the day.(2) It also allows you to get some gut rest between the meals to help prevent bloating.
We focus on a three meal structure with all of our meal plans, which have helped thousands of men and women around the world to achieve their weight loss and wellness goals.

FAQ’s
Yes! Each meal provides around 30 grams of complete protein and all focus on protein, fat and fiber. So if you feel like swapping one out for another, go for it!
If you find it easier to prepare one or two meals for breakfast and lunch throughout the week, you certainly can. Some recipes (like the dinner recipes) make more than one serving and therefore can be used as leftovers the next day as well. However, I do recommend trying to switch up your meals as often as is comfortable for you so that you can prevent food fatigue.
The recipes don’t provide calorie information for a reason. It’s incredibly easy to get lost in calorie counting and lose sight of satiety cues and the hormonal effects that the ingredients have on the body. After all, calorie trackers are a fairly new invention that we didn’t have access to for thousands of years until now. Each of the recipes are focused on using ingredients that naturally don’t trigger the urge to “overeat” while boosting satiety hormones. This is a long term, lifestyle approach to help you learn to eat foods that make you feel satisfied and reduce sugar cravings while allowing the body to naturally shift into using fat burning mechanisms — all while reducing your reliance on calorie trackers.
