Need some protein suggestions!

So I really enjoy smoothies for breakfast, but I’m conflicted on adding protein powder. I know smoothies can be high in sugar, but I usually limit the ingredients so it’s natural sugar and that’s typically all of the sugar I have in one day. Here’s what a typical day looks like for me:

  • smoothie (mixed frozen berries, spinach, Maca powder, unsweetened almond milk, mint leaves)
  • dark chocolate granola bar (I don’t eat this every day)
  • celery and carrots for lunch w/ light ranch
  • for dinner I alternate between turkey burgers and baked chicken breasts with roasted veggies
  • a bad snacking habit I’ve gotten into is chips and salsa. The salsa isn’t an issue, but the chips get me. If you have any suggestions on alternatives to dip in salsa let me know!

I was doing good losing but I realized it was because I wasn’t eating until dinner. I started to get overly exhausted mid day and realized I need to eat something.

Will too much protein prevent me from losing?

Thanks!
