What is something that is high in protein and low in carbs and fat? I find that I'm typically lacking protein at the end of the day even after i have tried to get enough....

    Protein powder I think is the best way to get the extra protein in without adding to your other macros. I personally use Vega Sport - Recover (chocolate). I am vegetarian though and prefer not to use whey protein due to sensitivities.

    Cottage cheese or 0% greek yogurt also work well

    Eat less plant based food items ( grains, starches, beans ), and more animal based products ( meats, dairy ).

    The plant based protein sources tend to have as many or more carbs as they do protein.

    For meats, the less processed the better. For instance, sausage tends to have a higher carb to protein ratio than a pork chop, for instance.
