High protein, low fat foods?

I've completely ignored the fat counter and haven't had any problems losing weight. Keep the sugar, white flour, processed food out of the diet and the fat intake becomes much less of an issue.

My opinion.

I think someone somewhere makes natural whey protein powder. Milk. Fish.

White fish, such as Cod, Dover Sole and Swai....Very high protein, very low fat and calories... :flowerforyou:

Halibut, Tilapia, Tuna, boneless/skinless chicken breast, extra lean ground turkey are all high in protein and low in fat.

Optimum Nutrition makes a 100% Natural Whey Protein. Even though it's a powder, it's still an all natural protein you can add in oatmeal, fruit shakes, scrambled eggs, and pancakes.

I think someone somewhere makes natural whey protein powder. Milk. Fish.

I use Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate, unflavored. It has 2 ingredients: Whey protein isolate (milk), and soy lecithin. Per scoop Calories: 40, Fat: 0g, Protein: 10 g

I was having the same problem finding protein rich foods that were lower in fat and calories. I add this to my Greek yogurt/fruit smoothies and I find I'm less hungry between meals.

Try beans-also white chile is good!

I know some of these have already been said, but thought I'd reiterate what others have said:

Almonds
Lentils (Black Beluga from Trader Joe's are REALLY HIGH in protein)
Greek Yogurt
Eggs
Quinoa
Beans
Peas
Tofu
Fish
Tuna

One of my favorite things to eat is Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh meats. The rotisserie style chicken is only 50 calories for about 6 slices (51 g) and only 1g of fat!

Beans...beans..... and more beans. There's one thing for sure....beans are not going to give you a heart attack and clog your arteries. I'm not anti-protein. I am anti-HIGH protein if this involves an extremely high diet of fat. Beans and vegetables don't do this.

Also, broccoli actually has more protein per 100 calories than new york strip. - check it out.

Read "Eat to Live" by Dr Fuhrman - this explains a lot of information on nutrition - extremely helpful.

Again - I'm not anti-protein (or anti-meat) - but we all have to be knowledeable - it's not just about losing weight - it's about protecting yourself against cancer, stroke and heart disease. America is the leading country for all these diseases - and our country is plentiful IN MEAT. There's a reason we are also number 1 in these diseases - and we need to start examining the causes instead of begging for a pill to solve it.

I eat 50% fat and my cholesterol is 151 my triglycerides are 56 so I guess your heart disease being caused by fat is totally wrong. Don't believe me?- read the research fat (except for transfats in margarine and vegetable oils like canola which when heated produce transfats) does NOT cause heart disease and has been proven by several studies by Duke, Stanford, and other universities. On the other hand sugar not fat causes heart disease because it causes excess insulin and insulin then causes inflammation in the arteries which then allows the heart disease, plaque build up to occur. The beans you are touting as very healthy are full of sugar yes sugar all carbs when they hit your intestines are turned to sugar and not to mention beans are the seed of the plant and contain harmful poisons to protect the seed so the plant can replant itself. This is even stated in books on vegetarianism which tell you to make sure you pre-soak and then precook and drain beans several times before eating to rid them of these toxins. So no thank you I will stick to my lower fat chicken that has plenty of protein and since it's natural has no toxins for me dump off while cooking.
