Hi!
what are some high protien meals with little or no carbs? I want something that will make me full and keep me full. What have you tried? What works for you?

Why are you avoiding carbs?0

i try to avoid obvious carbs (bread, potatoes, rice, cookies, muffins etc) So staying between 50 - 100 gms a day.
you can do meat and all kinds of veggies, cheese, salads. Mashed cauliflower is a great substitute for potatoes....didn't fool my kids though!0 -
Breakfast: omelet with cheese and fresh red pepper, cilantro, and garlic, with sour cream on the side and three slices of crisp microwaved turkey bacon. Add a little milk to the eggs for more protein...I don't use flour cuz the omelet holds together fine.
I like to get the Margarita Grill chicken at Chilis, which has perfectly grilled chicken breats and black beans. I get something else instead of the rice, like salad or broccoli.0 -
There's really no such thing as a "no carb" meal unless you're eating plain protein.
Meals that are healthy, lower in carbs and fat are easy. Stick to a grilled or baked unbreaded protein (steak, chicken, shellfish, etc.) and non-starchy vegetables. Have sliced grilled chicken on a big, green salad. Or steamed tilapia and broccoli. Or a lean hamburger patty with a slice of cheese and some salsa on top with mixed veggies on the side. Or stir fry veggies with shrimp. The possibilities are endless.0 -

Bacon and eggs
Chilli
The biggest problem with low carbs I find is the side dish, if you can get away with only meat and cheese your golden.0 -
My breakfast was 47 grams of protein, my lunch was 54 grams of protein. Diary is open, add me if you wish!0
