As far as the amount of shakes. Its hard to get her to eat enough protein. Its like pulling teeth.
To be more specific in what we're doing she is trying with weights mwf and performing supersets with opposing muscle groups with 1 minute rests between supersets. We are alternating upper body days and lower body days. Then fasted morning hit cardio for 15 mins the other days. She's very agreeable to everything suggested and has embraced the lifestyle. Has only had one cheat meal in 6 weeks. When she feels the need we make protein ice cream or something. She really likes a wide variety of fruits and veggies but getting protein down is her problem. That's why we use shakes.
We track all of her calories and all food is weighed and measured. She is eating 1650 calories with the above macros with meals split into carb/fat or pro/fat. Most meals include fibrous veggies. I can get her to sub one of the shakes for lean meats occasionally, but she prefers to use shakes for pro and eat the rest.
Progress this far is very good. I just wanted advice where to go from here. I know if i keep cutting her calories then we will get stuck with super low calories before she reaches her goal. She wants to get lean and maintain a good amount of muscle. The bikini/fitness look.
