"The Importance of Meeting Your Daily Protein Goal for Bone Health"

The author decided to challenge herself to consume 120 grams of protein daily for 30 days after realizing she likely wasn't getting enough. By tracking her intake and adjusting her meals, she found that prioritizing protein made her feel more satiated, stronger during workouts, and emotionally stable. However, she also experienced stomach aches and found it challenging to maintain variety and consistency in her diet while closely counting macros. Ultimately, she concluded that while protein is valuable, a strict approach may not be sustainable for everyone, and it's important to prioritize protein without becoming overly fixated on hitting a specific number.
