All,

I've got my workouts pretty much on track and have been at a steady weight (9st) for about 6 months. I'd like to loose a little more and as such am tinkering with my diet. I'm lowering my carbs and fat and upping my protein. The carbs are there but I keep coming up short on my protein and higher on my fat - carb 45%, fat 25% protein 30% is my goal. I'm adding protein into all my main meals and I'd like some help with snacking - help please.......

    Turkey, whey protein powder blended with ice or mixed with water, and jerky!

    Thanks for the ideas. Have just popped out and bought myself some jerky!!!!!!!!! First time for everything. So used to snacking on fruit so fancy a change. Have also gotten myself some almond nuts. Am going to avoid the animal protein for snacking and generally have that at lunch and dinner.
