Should you consume 3,000 calories in one meal?

No, you shouldn’t. As stated several times previously, 3,000 kcal is quite a large amount of food, particularly if you consume it through healthy, nutritious foods. Trying to eat this much food in one sitting will likely make you feel sick and you’ll be unable to finish it all.

Can too much protein hurt weight loss?

Not quite. High-protein diets are generally considered to be safe for both weight loss and muscle gain. However, Harvard Health warns that eating too much protein can lead to an increased risk of kidney stones ( 15 ). In addition, if your protein of choice is red meat, then your risk of heart disease and certain cancers such as colon cancer is increased. To prevent consuming too much protein, it’s advised to avoid consuming more than 2 grams per kg of your body weight a day ( 15 ).

Why am I only losing 100g a day?

A loss of 100 g a day is likely due to a loss of water weight and not fat loss. Remember that healthy weight loss means a loss of 1 to 2 pounds a week (454 g to 907 g a week 16 ). Please note, weighing yourself daily while on a weight loss journey is not advisable. Try to weigh yourself just once a month or bi-weekly if you feel a month is too long.
