    Well there is no ceiling on various macronutrient intake, going "over" is only a problem when you are neglecting the other macros and not hitting your minimum amounts for those macros

    but to answer your question

    lean proteins ie chicken, lean beef etc
    protein powder
    tuna and other fish

    Cabs and fats are both part of a healthy diet, but okay..

    Lean meats, egg whites, non-fat Greek yogurt

    Protein.

    However, dietary fat is very good for you so unless you have a medical condition requiring you to minimize it, you should eat up, being mindful of your caloric intake.

    ^ And this is a good summary.

    I am doing the low carb thing and I am eating lots of lean meat, eggs, cheese, nuts, veggies, and berries. Hope this helps!

    WHOLE EGGS! :) i hate that people only use the whites unless its for a shake or something.. there is NOTHING wrong with the yolk, its good for you and its not even high cal?

    I agree. I have been eating eggs for 40 years - usually every day I have 1, sometimes 2. Yolk and all. I have extremely good blood values as far as cholesterol -- both good and bad -- and my triglycerides have always been perfect. There is so much bad reports about eggs which are now being de-bunked by new research. It would be interesting to see how many others have eaten eggs their entire life and have no blood lipid issues. (Not saying everyone will because some people have cholesterol issues even at perfectly healthy weights and BMIs)...
