High protien diaries

Hi, I'm looking for anyone that is eating 100gms or more of protien/day and has an open diary that I can look at to get more ideas. I prefer to try to eat regular unprocessed foods to meet this goal...prefer to stay away from powders and things like that. Thanks:smile:

    Hello, I usually try and get more than 100 g of protein a day. Sometimes I don't make it though either. But my diary is open and I usually get close :happy:

    You can look at mine, too. Sometimes I think it's nice to look at what other people are eating when you get bored with food and need some new ideas.

    Greek yogurt. One cup has 100 calories, 0 fat and 18 grams of protein.
  • That's me--140g. a day. I get quite a bit from powder, but I think they are perfectly healthy when used in conjunction with other proteins from nuts, dairy, poultry, fish, and meat. The deal with eating 'unprocessed foods' is that you often get unwanted fat from them. I'd be UNDER my fat totals for the day if it wasn't for the meats and poultry--even the lean kinds have a fair amount of fat content.

    Another thing on powders: some are way better than others in both ingredients, absorbtion, and flavor. You have to do some research and read some reviews. Then do your own taste tests until you find ones you like. So far I am a fan of Optimal Nutrition Gold Standard. Worth every penny.

    On MOST days I do, but some days I fall short and I do use protein powder on lifting days, feel free to add me.

    mine is not open right now since I am kinda taking a mental break from logging but I have ideas that helped me:

    Breakfast- I would add cottage cheese to scrambled eggs and use low sodium ham or low sodium bacon as well. The sodium is still high so if you watch your sodium this may not be for you. Around 30 grams of protein!

    Lunch- One of my favorites was salsa chicken with avocado on top of a salad and I used a little greek yogurt on top instead of sour cream. This meal usually was 59 grams of protein!

    Dinner- One of my favorites was Greek Yogurt Chicken, my version of this recipe was 96 grams of protein!!!
    If you dont like greek yogurt don't worry you can't taste it here is the recipe: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/682756-greek-yogurt-melt-in-your-mouth-chicken

    Snacks: Cottage cheese, Tuna, Almonds

    Hope this helps :smile:

    Mine's public, I usually get 225-250g a day with no protein powder (though I do have a bar for a snack before pre-workout). Sometimes I will supplement with powder if needed.

    I always have 100+g of protein a day, feel free to take a look at my diary.

    On strength training days I aim for about 180g.... on non strength training days I'm usually around 130-150

    ETA: I DO use protein powder, regularly, works wonders, more people should use it!

    I aim for 110 or so a day. My diary is open to friends.

    I generally get my protein from low-fat dairy (skim milk, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, etc.); eggs; lean meat. I occasionally use a powder for a smoothie.

    I eat about 130-160g protien. My diary is open to friends. Add me and you'll be able to see it.

    I do use protien powder and I don't eat meat 4-5 days of the week. I do eat eggs and dairy but do not drink milk.

    My main sources of protien are fage 0, eggs, tofu, seitan, whole grains, cheese, soy based products.

    My range of daily protein for the last two weeks has been 120 - 180.

    I have 1 protein powder drink per day, but other than that I eat mostly unprocessed foods.

    My diary is open to friends if you'd like to add me. Good luck! :-)

    Me too. 298 grams is my daily goal. I do have to have some powders to get there, but eat lots of other high protein natural items too!

    Take a look at mine. I hit 150 often, usually with one scoop (25) from powder.
