This includes helping you pick recipes, meals and snacks to help you reach your goals, no matter if it’s to lose weight or gain muscle. The High-Protein Plan is basically exactly what it sounds like - it’s designed to help you build a diet that contains more sources of protein. Long story short, for the cost of a couple cups of coffee a month, you essentially get access to a dietitian, meal planner and motivator, all wrapped up into one. Here I’ll talk about what MyFitnessPal’s High-Protein Plan includes, my initial thoughts and my reflections after completing the 28-day plan. MyFitnessPal graciously supplied a beta version of its app, and after installing it on my iPhone, I was off to the races (I mean, grocery store). Protein is the macronutrient I’ve subconsciously always known I should eat more of, so when I was given my pick of options (including nutrition, steps and habit-building plans), I went for the High-Protein Plan. But what does eating healthy really mean, and have I been going about it all wrong? Bread, pasta, you name it - there’s nothing I like more than a plate full of carbs. I’m a two-time IRONMAN finisher and a self-described endurance junkie, so naturally carbs are my best friend. I’ve always prioritized eating healthy and exercising regularly. As someone who’s been in and around the fitness scene for years, I’ve tested shoes, recovery devices, bikes and more for some major publications, but when the MyFitnessPal team reached out to me to test one of its new in-app meal plans, I was, let’s just say, nervously excited. I’ve been somewhat of a guinea pig throughout my career as a writer and editor.
