Ive been thinking about trying a diet consisting of only seasoned chicken breast, and drinking only water.

pros:
>large protein intake will leave me feeling full sooner and for longer, so i binge eat less
>no carbs, so I reduce dental plaque formation (which i seem to be very susceptible to)
>easy to prepare and dont have to think about it.

cons:
>would probably get extremely boring very quickly
>limited nature of the diet means that perhaps I would suffer malnutrition

thoughts? anyone here tried meat only before?

sounds like something an incel would do

Brine is your friend with chicken breast, get creative and use jalapeño juice in the brine. mixing the prep up can add lots of possibilities.

mainly im just sick of eating and never feeling full, at least for long. I heard protein is really filling so maybe its worth testing.

Too much protein will get converted into sugar.
Eat brussel sprouts, broccoli and other steamed veggies with your chicken. The fiber will also prevent you from becoming constipated.

If you're doing that too I recommend supplementing your new diet with vegetables. They're mostly low calorie, packed full of vitamins and minerals, and very filling. They can also add variety to your diet depending on the dish you make, as the dishes you can make with vegetables and chicken are almost endless.

chicken never gets boring because you can do almost anything with it. Mix things up by doing thighs and wings once in awhile.

Yes, I am definitely open to the inclusion of vegetables.

Chicken and veggies is good enough. Sea food is also something you should consider. Its got a lot of good fatty acids and Omega 3s. Just go easy on Tuna, that stuff has mercury in it.
