For snacks I have:
low fat cottage cheese with a fruit cup no added sugar.
hard boiled egg
greek yogurt (I had a hard time finding one I liked...but Dannon light and fit is good)
low fat cheese sticks
For meals, right now I depend a bit on lean cuisine....they have some pretty high protein ones that take a lot of guess work out.
good luck!0 -

Those have a heap of sodium. Omelettes with veggies, chicken with salsa is my go-to (especially fruity salsa), ground turkey, salmon with mustard, there is a lot of deliciousness0 -
thank you i am trying to keep my sodium down because of my blood pressure : )0

Re: Lean Cuisine...I know they are rather high in sodium...taking one step at a time. I do not have a problem with BP or salt intake...and sometimes when life gets in the way it is a better option for me. And some are not too bad re: sodium. But if you have high BP to begin with, yeah, I would avoid. :ohwell:1

I'm going for more protein than carbs too, and so my diet consists of A LOT of chicken breasts! I just cook or season them differently so I don't feel quite like I'm always eating the same thing... I also cook like 5 - 6 chicken breasts on the weekends so I have them ready for lunches with a quick veggie or salad, or dinner if I need to.
I also eat egg whites with chunky salsa in the mornings, which seem to sustain me more than a bagel or something! I also eat a lot of tilapia- same idea as the chicken- it's such a mild fish you can flavor it in so many ways.0 -
I'm new here and 73. I have stage 4 copd so nearly impossible to work out. I must lose 80 lbs to improve mobility and live longer. Anyone have suggestions that would do this but not require alot of everyday cooking?0

I only eat God's foods.... no packaged meals. My husband is the opposite and he came down with Crohn's Disease. I see the sodium levels in the prepared foods as very bad for my health. I prefer to take a little extra time for myself and eat real food from the garden or the farm.0
