I'm watching carbs pretty close. I seem to lean up pretty quick on lower carbs. 1/2 cup of chili beans (Bush Brand) has 20gr of carbs but only 6gr of protein. I'm not sure bean protein counts anyway....your body has to process it more than REAL protein from meat.

The fat doesn't worry me, when I did KETO last year I ate nothing but fats and protein (NO carbs) and got down to 7% BF. Felt weird but hey haha.

I may do one can of beans instead of two, or something like that...maybe 1.5lbs of beef instead of two.

I do the 94% lean beef or turkey for my meals using ground meat.
