How much protein a day to lose 20 pound?

When I started trying to improve my weight, I thought eating more protein would give me fast results. However, I learned that protein works best as part of balanced meals. I began adding eggs or yogurt at breakfast, chicken, beans, or lentils at lunch, and a simple protein source at dinner. These foods helped me feel satisfied for longer and reduced my urge to snack. I did not follow a protein-only diet or expect quick changes. I also focused on vegetables, fruit, water, sleep, and regular movement. Before choosing an exact daily protein amount, I would speak with a doctor or dietitian because my age, body, activity, and health needs can change the right amount for me over time safely.
