Product placement

(a) Macro Mike: ACTS — the creator explicitly recommends it for protein pancakes and creatine gummies, stating it makes them fluffy and provides 30g of protein. Removing this would change the video's specific dietary advice. (b) Simply Sima: APPEARS — mentioned in the creator's bio as a brand she started, but does not act or get demonstrated in this video.

full day of eating in a calorie deficit as a short girl who's 5'2

Transcript

You know what's not talked about enough is being a short girl in a calorie deficit. I have to eat so low to be able to lose weight and someone commented, do I need to starve? No. No, you do not, but what you do need to do if you want to be in a calorie deficit is learn how to volume eat. I still eat three big meals a day, breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. So this is a full day of eating in a calorie deficit as someone who's 5'2. For breakfast I'm having my protein pancakes, 30 grams of protein under 400 cals. They taste so good and they're so, so fluffy. No egg white cottage cheese bullshit. If you want the recipe comment down below, followed by my morning tea snack and then lunch which is pasta and prawns. I actually use chickpea pasta because they're lower in cals when I'm in a deficit and have so much more fiber, so they'll keep you fuller for longer. After that I'm having another snack which is fruit. I love to snack on fruit cause it's lower in calorie. For dinner, spud lite potatoes over regular potatoes. This is the trick to volume eating, you can eat so much more for the same amount of calories. And then I also have my creatine gummies too to finish off the day.
