Am I the only one that finds it hard to eat enough protein?

    I'm also vegetarian, well, pescatarian, as I do eat fish. But, I have added protein powder to oatmeal too. I too have no problem getting the amount of protein I target to get for myself (not MFP settings).

    I hated meat. I had to eat protein bars and shakes at first. I was born a carbivore. I could eat pancakes three times a day.

    After exercising consistently for a few months.....I rip into chicken like a piranah, I can eat 4 pieces of fishe without even realizing the veggies are still in the microwave....I still am disgusted by beef though.

    Now one piece of bread make me feel tired. I am a changed woman.

    I'm not a huge fan of beef but since I discovered ground buffalo I am in heaven :-) It doesn't bloat my stomach like beef and the flavor is simply amazing. It's packs 24 g of protein per 4 oz and it very high in iron which is good for us girls.

    Cheese!

    Nuts!

    Eggs!

    Yogurt!

    Edamame!

    But then, I just finished a Fiber One brownie with a Tbsp. of peanut butter, so, no, getting enough protein is never a problem for me. I never have a meal, and very rarely even a snack, without protein.
