    Lean proteins like chicken breast, ground turkey, etc.

    Perdue Perfect portions are pre-cut, boneless chicken breast. You can eat two, get a load of protein for under 300 calories. Of course, you can just buy regular chicken breast.

    most days you are way way way below a healthy net calorie day.. you can eat more

    proteins = anything with a face, protein powder can help to.
