    All food is made of macros. If it has 200 calories it has 200 calories worth of macros in some combination of carbohydrates, fat and protein. Is there a specific macro you would rather fill your new calories with?

    So to clarify, low carb, low fat, high protein.

    ...Good luck with that. All I can think of are boneless, skinless chicken breasts drowned in sadness.

    Just a few ideas, these are things I reach for when I'm carb/fat poor and need more protein to hit my goal:

    7oz shrimp (uncooked): 210 cals, 40/2/3.5 (P/C/F)
    10 large egg whites: 172 cals, 36/2.4/0.6
    8oz deli turkey breast: 200 cals, 44/4/2
    8oz barramundi filet: 180 cals, 46/0/2

    Are you doing low carb? If so, it is almost impossible to do low carb with low fat and high protein. You will see, low carbers are high fat and high protein. LCHF (low carb/high fat)

    Lean meats, whey protein, eggs.

    Greek yogurt, protein powders, egg whites, lean turkeys/chicken, low fat diary products like cottage cheese.
