    only 30%?

    anyways...um, besides meat and beans?
    Cottage cheese
    Grains but grains are overrated and I don't recommend alot of them.
    Nuts, but they are hard to digest, and the protein isn't as accessible for the amount of calories.

    Truthfully, there's not a lot of ways around this. Meat. The degree of leanness is up to your fat intake.

    Me: Steak, eggs(with the yolks), chicken breast, seafood, lentils,

    i am trying a 30% protein 30% fat 40% carbs on 1800 calories a day whether i exercise or not
    weight loss has stalled and trying something different

    These are great recommendations I try 40% protein and 30 fat and carbs

    I NEED TO CHANGE MY DIET TO WHERE I GET 30% OF MY CALORIES FROM PROTEIN.

    NEED SOME GOOD PROTEIN CALORIE CHOICES

    I CAN COME UP WITH SOME BAD ONES ON MY OWN...LOL:devil:

    WHEY PROTEIN POWDER!!!
    I use Dymatize Elite....I love the taste.....it's all Gluten-Free....easily digestible....mine only has (per scoop) 120 calories, 5 carbs, 0 sugar, 21 grams of protein!!
    Here's the link to check out the products....go for the XT or the Gourmet Whey/Casein Blend Protein. They fill you up, and stay with you longer!!
