at night nonfat cottage cheese is a good choice...it has cassein protein which is slowly digested so your body gets a nice steady source while you sleep

cheese is easy and has the calcium and protein

almonds are good..the fat in those is agood fat that we need

oregonlady

oh! i love the cottage cheese idea!

and almonds.

Try putting the almonds into the cottage cheese and an apple...thats one of my favorite lunches-lots of protien and you get the juicy sweet crunch of the apples and almonds...very tasty and filling!

I also usually start the day with eggs- whether it's whole eggs or egg whites.

Other things I try to make sure are in my diet are chicken, lean meats and fish.

Some of my snacks include, protein shakes, cottage cheese, cheese, lunch meat (usually turkey) and natural peanut butter (be careful about the amount though)

Hope that helps!

Whey powder
Greek yogurt also has a lot of protein, tastes a bit sour though so might want to mix it with something.
