serving of lean protein tonight
 
Hi, I have been on ideal protein for approximately a month and have followed the diet pretty religiously and lost 20#. Tonight we had turkey breast for dinner and I probably ate 12 to 14 oz of it. I have not had my snack yet. Should I eat my snack or forgo it since I had the extra protein. Thanks for any help. Kinda bummed. :?:

You are fine. Tomorrow is another day, but make sure you get your 3rd packet in. No matter what!

Measuring the meat is a must. A scale can be purchased for 10 bucks at Kmart, shopko, or target. What ever you have close by.

Good luck and stay OP!

I would have my snack and forgive yourself! Ive gone over my protein allowance several times (much better at eyeballing serving size now than at the beginning). Turkey breast is a great, lean protein - not a bad whoopsie to make, just use it to get your serving sizes calibrated!

You guys are awesome! I will have my third packet. I actually have a scale and measured my portion but then gave into temptation :( Thank you both for your encouraging words :)

Confession from a butchers daughter...I've been known to succumb myself. Beef fajitas are meat candy to me, I have to buy chicken fajitas to reign myself in!
