@jimness Beef, Chicken, Lamb, egg whites and I also have some milk and oats sometimes, but I count only poultry and meat for protein.

@jenfer Why not eggs and dairy? They are both complete animal proteins with an excellent amino acid profile.

 

[jenfer]

@r86 I eat egg whites, one or two yolks a day. I am trying to keep fat intake low.

 

[r86]

@jenfer What I meant is why you don’t count eggs and dairy for protein content

 

[jenfer]

@r86 I do count eggs, infact I eat 10-15 egg whites everyday. Milk doesn't have much protein. I also do not count bread and rice etc stuff. All are trace amounts.

@jimness Almost forgot to complete my daily protein intake, thanks for reminding me

@jimness Parents don't allow , I once bought Nakpro Whey Protein and they threw it in dustbin saying that it's bad for your health and kidney kharab hojayegi blah blah ,... . Anyways, they can't say anything while I am in college tho .

@jimness Currently relying on chicken, eggs and skimmed milk since i got my blood urea on the higher side in the normal range.

@jimness I had stopped taking protein supplements because I can't bear drinking it, I liked the taste but then I couldn't anymore. I have to finish it before it expires .

 

[jimness]

@bucketneck Which one were you consuming

 

[bucketneck]

@jimness Avvatar whey protein mango, before that was my protein coffee and no flavour.

@jimness I don’t take a protein supplement because I’d rather complete my daily requirements from whole foods. I’ve learnt how to do that and it’s going quite well.
