Care to share any suggestions how to accomplish this with a diet that actually tastes good and doesn't require too much preparation time? Most people seem to use yucky protein shakes or huge portions of ham or other bland food and I just can't force myself to eat such stuff.
- githulhu 12y agoI used to work with a guy who was a body-builder type, and all he would eat was chicken breast, breakfast, lunch and dinner. I guess you have to pick what's important to you. I think that if your goal is just to be generally healthy, there's no need to eat that much protein.

- lazyjones 12y agoThanks for the suggestion - these are prohibitively expensive over here (about $15 per single can from amazon.de), but I found similar products at much better prices that I'll give a try.
- toomuchtodo 12y agoExcellent! Best of luck! I also recommend /r/keto and /r/fitness on reddit.
- halfcat 12y agoI use Premier Protein shakes, 30g/shake. I'll say this: when I eat like crap, this much protein is really tough. I was a bad-air machine, bathroom trips all day long, to put it nicely. Once I went to the slow carb diet and basically cut out carbs/sugar, it was very doable to have 3-4 shakes per day.
- wdewind 12y agoAdd a pint of milk to every meal. There's 30g of protein and 900 calories. That plus eggs/omlette, bacon, sausage etc. for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and some kind of meat and veggies for dinner = 200g of protein easily.
