Cut the sweet stuff out.
Cut the booze right down (out if possible)
Stop over eating....
Lift weights every so often to maintain a a bit of muscle mass.
Done
so by your idea...if i eat 4,000 cal's of protein a day i cannot get fat......? Right that's what you said.
Sorry....i disagree
That could be possible in theory and if you only see calories, as i mentioned, as numbers on paper and not as molecules that cause reactions in your body, but in reality you will experience rabbit starvation (protein poisoning) way longer before your body has the chance to add bodyfat.
Plus, protein is always accompanied by either fat (ex steak) or carbs (ex beans) so no, your argument is invalid, you cannot eat isolated forms of protein. There is no way you will eat 4,000 cals of protein alone. Period. And even if we set aside protein poisoning, protein is highly satiating. To consume such a vast amount of protein in a single day would be, you guessed it, impossible.
Convinced yet?
