I'm trying to eat more protein, other than the obvious meat where else is a good source of protein?

    I just perused your diary - you have the same calorie goal as me. You can look through my diary for other ideas if you want. Be warned, I exercise everyday but I do not add or "eat back" my exercise calories though.

    Egg Whites and Tuna are my go-to high-protein, low-cal options.
