Depending on how you want to diet but doesn't make much sense to me. Do you track macros?Quote:

I mean it all depends on calorie intake. How about researching tracking your macro nutrients. Check out iifym and plug in her stats. Should give you how many calories she burns in a day. Eat 300-500 calories below that and she will lose. As far as protein shake only as meal replacement I don't recommend it. A meal should be balanced with carbs and fats. Once you learn her macros download the myfitnesspal app to track her numbers daily. It's a lot to learn and get used to but that's how most of the ladies and gents here track what they eat whether it be cutting or bulking.Quote:
