    I'm not big on seafood. I make an effort to work it into my diet occasionally but it's not something I really enjoy... unless it's batter dipped and deep fried and I don't do that anymore.

    I struggle to eat boring and poorly made food.
    If you have something unusual to offer me that was made with passion and zest, I say bring it on!

    Vegetables. I usually drown them in sauce to make them palatable. Or mash them like baby food. And I still hate them. But they are easier to eat that way.

    Fruits/Vegetables. I have improved on this, but I am picky and only like certain fruits/vegetables. Mostly it is a texture thing, I am trying to expand my palate though.

    I struggle to get enough fiber from any source. 25g is actually a lot when you're averaging <1450 calories / day, and worse trying not to cook multiple meals and living with people who are actively against vegetables.

    Protein for me as well. I'm allergic to eggs so I can't have them often and I don't like meat unless it's attached to a day's worth of fat and carbs. I tolerate chicken and fish, but "tolerate" is the keyword. Not somethig I would enjoy having often. I like beans and dairy but they would need to make 100% of my diet to hit anywhere close to my preferred protein goal. Solution: I don't sweat it. I eat protein when I can and don't when I can't. Losing weight is more important than fussing and stressing over grams of of protein.

    On the flip side, my diet is very rich in fiber, leafy greens, various grains and grain products, various fruits, and all kinds of vegetables cooked and raw (plus lots and lots of tomatoes).

    Try adding in Greek yogurt or quinoa. They are great sources of non-meat protein.

    OK, there's one: brussel sprouts, I won't buy that again though. Even as soup, the bitter flavor persists.

    I really struggle to eat enough protein too, no matter how hard I try! I guess I don't really like cooking with meat, which doesn't help, but it's still hard even when I do and no matter how many other 'high protein' foods I eat.
