Why beef? And why cubes? I like beef. chicken is okay. Lamb is my favorite. Seafood (salmon, tuna) is something I have to push myself to eat. Which provides the most Protein with the fewest calories?

Variety sounds like a better bet. Have you tried mixing beef with lentils, onions, and a healthy grain like quinoa? Make a meal instead of just meat.

Congratulations on being so active. I have a three-wheeled trike, but I have to be under 200lbs before I can use it. Not there yet. I don't feel comfortable swimming in a public pool with men sharing the same facility. I would like to try lifting some weights, but I'm afraid of overdoing it and injuring myself.

I also have a chronic ankle injury that prevents me from weight-bearing exercise on that ankle. My stationary bike is boring.

Do you have someone helping you plan your exercise program?
