    I don't know what your diet is (if you are vegetarian my suggestions won't help). But I usually have a protein shake with unsweetened vanilla almond milk, Whey protein, blueberries and diced walnuts mixed in a blender in the morning. Other high protein options are eggs, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, beef. Many people don't like salmon. But salmon is very high in protein and low in calories. It also has omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, etc.

    I hope this helps!

    I’m a 64 female who doesn’t want to starve, lose hair or comprise my food choices. I’m a healthy eater but I have to lose weight. I’ve started to weight lift with a trainer and walk the treadmill at the gym. I’m starting my macros as 35 C; 30 F; 35 P…my question is this a good ratio to gain muscle and lose fat? I too have 50+ to lose
