Breakfast: 1 to 1.5 eggs scramble with a sprinkle of cheese, and either a piece of turkey bacon or 2 lil smokey turkey sausages.

Snack: Atkins advantage bar or 1-2oz cheese or Quest bar or sf choc Jello mixed with 1/2 scoop of unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein powder.

lunch: 2-4 oz of sliced turkey meat, cauliflower and some hummus

post workout: Protein shake. just Protein Shake mixed with Water.

dinner: 4 oz of Protein, usually ground turkey/chicken/bison, or fish/tilapia/orange roughy. with veggies

i make sure every meal i have protein, and eat that first before i touch anything else. if i'm full off the protein portion, i'm fine with that.

I never have a problem, since I'm a natural carnivore. meat is my favorite food anyway. That and cheese.

I'm right there with you! Which is why low-carb diets were always my go-to for weight loss. haha

I guess I just need to be more diligent about adding Protein supplements of some kind into my diet. I got my goal yesterday but I also had 2 Protein Shakes (I was on liquids from a fill on Wednesday). Thankfully, my fitness pal tracks protein now so that should be helpful for me :)

This may be unpopular, but I believe Americans are overly-obsessed with Protein. My goal is to eat Protein first, then the veggies, etc., but I don't have a goal for getting a specific number of grams in.....

Having just said that, I do jack up the protein in my Greek yogurt by adding a tablespoon of collagen, which I'm taking for arthritis. This adds 6 grams to the Greek yogurt for a total of 18. It is tasteless but thickens it up a little more, then I add a few nuts and tablespoon or so of gluten-free Cereal of some kind. This makes the yogurt not be a slider for me and I enjoy all that texture, the chewing slow, etc. so the message for satiety passes between the esophagus and brain.
