@jacksoncris Happy to help! Increasing protein made such a big difference for me and it took me awhile to figure out how to get to 135 g consistently. I will say that I am not bothered by dairy so my diet does have a lot of it and I also am low carb due to PCOS, but my usual day of eating follows roughly this:
First meal: 3 egg omelette with veggies and 1 oz cheddar cheese (23 g total). Sometimes I’ll add meat to this if I have any leftovers.
Second meal: arugula or spinach salad with avocado, 4 oz chicken breast, olive oil, and sunflower seeds (40 g total).
Third meal: whatever type of protein we have for dinner with veggies, portion size to total around 25 g of protein or more. Usually this is a bunless burger, chicken sausage, pork loin, or fish with veggies and my bf adds whatever carb he’s feeling and I stare longingly at it
Snacks:
Post lifting protein shake (25g)
1 tbs almond butter and celery (4g)
One serving Greek yogurt with berries for dessert (15g)
Other things that have really helped me on days I can’t get enough protein in are canned tuna, protein pancakes, and cottage cheese. The low carb lifting life can be rough and I would not do it if I didn’t need to so eat ya carbs if you can : )
