One easy trick? Look for the word “loin.” Cuts like pork loin and sirloin are typically leaner than fattier options.
Other great lean protein choices include:
✔️ Skinless chicken or turkey breast
✔️ 93–99% lean ground turkey or beef
✔️ Pork tenderloin
✔️ Fish and seafood
A few simple swaps can help you get the protein you need while keeping calories and saturated fat in check – especially after bariatric surgery.
Remember, protein first!
