I used to get trapped in town between breakfast and lunch way too often. Bored, hungry, and surrounded by temptation, I’d make the classic “poor food choices” (you know, the ones that whisper “it’s just one burger” while quietly adding another notch to my belt).
Then one week, I escaped to the mountains for some hiking. I packed a bunch of MET-Rx bars for lunch—nothing fancy, just convenient protein bricks. After 4-5 days of fresh air and those bars, I stepped on the scale back home and… holy crap, I was down a few pounds! No starvation, no misery—just bars and walking.
So naturally, I did what any rational human would do: I sprinted to Amazon and panic-bought a lifetime supply of these “miracle bars.”
Fast-forward: I started replacing lunch (and the occasional dinner) with one of these bad boys. Sometimes I’d pair it with a glass of milk for a 40g+ protein flex. And guess what? The weight kept melting off like ice cream on a summer sidewalk. Bonus: my wallet got thicker while my waist got thinner.
Moral of the story? 99% of the food options in town are basically edible sabotage—designed to taste amazing and make you buy bigger pants. But little tweaks can trigger massive wins.
If you’re stuck in the weight-gain loop, try something new! Your body is a puzzle, not a vending machine—there’s no magic “easy” button, but there are smart buttons. Hit one. Mine happened to be delicious and called MET-Rx.
You got this. One small change, one ridiculous victory at a time. 💪😄
I know it’s not steak 🥩 and eggs 🥚 and highly processed but it work for now.
* Milk choice should be one with the most protein and least sugar not all milk is created equal
