Low Calorie & High Protein Foods To Stay Full 💪🏼

When you’re in a calorie deficit, it’s so important to make sure you’re still getting enough protein to stay full and support muscle recovery. Here are some of my favorite low-calorie, high-protein foods that help me hit my goals without going over on calories:

🍗 Grilled Chicken Breast – The OG high-protein, low-calorie option! Super versatile and easy to add to salads, wraps, or bowls.

🐟 Tuna – Packed with protein and low in calories, canned tuna is perfect for quick meals and snacks.

🥚 Egg Whites – All the protein without the extra calories! Scramble them up or add to an omelet for a lean, filling meal.

🧀 Low-Fat Cottage Cheese – Creamy, filling, and packed with protein, it’s great as a snack or paired with fruit.

🫘 Edamame – A plant-based protein powerhouse that’s perfect steamed with a sprinkle of sea salt!

🍶 Non-Fat Greek Yogurt – High in protein and super versatile! Eat it plain, mix it into smoothies, or top with fruit for a filling snack.

🥩 Lean Ground Turkey – Swap out higher-fat meats with lean turkey to keep meals high in protein but low in calories.

These foods make it so much easier to stay satisfied and hit my protein goals while eating in a calorie deficit. What are your go-to high-protein foods? Drop them in the comments below! 💬👇
