How does everyone get enough protein in w/o shakes?

I am

Just curious. I am not at that stage yet but I

Wonder how this is possible. What is a typical menu?

[notmeanymore 629]

I rarely do shakes anymore. A basic days menu for me is a hardboiled egg in the morning or some cottage cheese, a couple hours later I may have another or a couple strips of turkey bacon, lunch I usually have some chicken that I stripped off of a rotissiere chicken, a couple hours later I may have a couple more ounces of that, I munch on turkey Jerky bites, dinner is maybe some meatballs, a tilapia filet, more chicken, crockpot porkchop, lunchmeat rollups (lunchmeat with cream cheeses and a little chive rolled up), for a snack later I may have a glass of milk, a couple pieces of cheese or a small handful of almonds. I keep Protein Bars in my purse just in case Im out and about and need a meal quickly.

I weaned off shakes as fast as I could. I do not like the chemicals.

EVERYTHING I eat has Protein in it. Period. Thats how you get it in.

eggs, cheese, Cottage cheese

Sausage, bacon, Breakfast meats,

lunch meat of all kind. Currently my fav is butter basted turkey from Fresh and easy. Roast beef and cheese.

Soups (easy to add any kind of Protein to that)

Yogurts

Peanut Butter

Nuts of all kind especially Almonds

Fish fish and more fish

Legumes

If I don't do a shake I do a Protein bar. It's usually 1 of the 2 to get it in.

I just bought a few Protein bars to try but I have a stock of cottage cheese, string cheese, tuna, fish, crab meat, and eggs. I also found a decent trail mix which is fabulous and yummy for protein. I am constantly reading labels at the store now!

I eat pretty much high Protein foods...like someone else mentioned...That's about all you have to do.

Never touched a Protein shake... Ate pretty much what other posters have said already - high quality Protein such as tuna, turkey, eggs as imaginatively as I could, yogs, nuts, low fat cheese, milk shakes and so on.

There's actually quite a lot you can do to get enough protein in without shakes. But you have to be patient, chew it all well to actually get reasonable amounts in before being full. But you can do it....
