@the_riptor: @Ethan Benard just consumed an entire POUND of ground beef for dinner?! 😳 Debunking myths I see in his comment section on a daily basis ⬇️ 1. “You can only consume low amounts of protein at one time to absorb it” - False. This study shows. 100g of protein is able to be fully absorbed. Potentially there is a much higher upper limit. 📖 PMID: 38118410 ⬆️ However, small meals throughout the day is beneficial to feel more satiated. 2. “1 lb of beef is 1500 calories” - False. It depends on the percent cut of beef. This is a calorie tracking issue. 🚨 Keep in mind eating high amount of beef daily (in this example 16oz of beef at once) consistently can be dangerous to health long term. 📖 PMID: 32814947 #healthylifestyle #Fitness
96/10 ground beef would be around 750 to 950 uncooked. It’s perfectly fine. Also, with how heavy he is, he could eat almost 3000 calories and still be in a calorie deficit.

my only issue is the iceberg lettuce. I don't like iceberg lettuce I prefer spinach. But he's lost so much weight and a lot of his meals look so good!

As a nutritionist/performance coach for over 20 years, when helping someone lose weight, you have to pick your battles. This meal is way healthier, for them, than fast food or a gallon of ice cream. I would recommend something like this to my clients all day. You have to find what works for them, and begin to make other suggestions, as you obtain the victories.

Can I do ground chicken or ground turkey instead. Beef doesn’t sit right in my stomach.

Only stopped to see if you were a giga Chad or a real dude who cares about people. Thank you for being constructive! It's stuff like this that helped me go from 340 to 240 over the last year.

My only thought about that meal was that hot ass beef in a bowl of lettuce is going to make for warm wilted lettuce. Yuck. I’d have let the meat cool off a bit first.

I've been on 1500 calorie deficit for a bit now and it's about the same for 2 pounds of lean meat a day one for lunch one for dinner

I commented on the video asking him why he chose iceberg instead of green cabbage. due to the higher fiber content in the cabbage being more filling. your take on substituting cabbage over iceberg?

Seasoning might not exactly be it (usually high in sodium) but its healthy overall… and the water content in the iceberg might counteract the sodium intake…. So good on the guy for making healthy good food.

People worried about the calories and protein and not the saturated fats of that meal alone. Heart disease at its finest.

Cooked and drained beef is all basically the same fat content. You just end up with less total cooked volume.
