How is everyone doing with getting all their Protein in? I am finally taking in some soft/semi-soft foods but am having a hard time getting in all the protein that I need to take in. I start the day with a Protein shake, one of the ones with a higher amount of protein (Pure Protein, OhYeah, others), which gives me about 1/2 my daily need, but I am struggling to get the rest. I have become temporarily (I hope) lactose-intolerant, so I am somewhat limited to tuna, chicken or eggs....and I am getting sick of them!!

Does anyone have any ideas of how I might get some more protein without having to drink another one of these revolting shakes!!!

BTW...3 weeks out and I have lost 31.4 pounds!

I mix the following ingredients in a shaker bottle and drink half before and the rest after my walk:

Premier Ptotein shake: 30 gms protein

1 5 oz container of greek yogurt: 13 gms

1/2 scoop of vanilla flavored protein powder: 15 gms

Total: 58 gms Protein/ 14 oz fluids

Unflavored protein (try plain soy if lactose intolerant) added to soup or broth. Nut butter for a snack. When you make egg salad instead of mayo use half plain Greek yogurt and half mayo. It taste the same but boost your protein

At soft foods I started on baked fish.

I like the Isopure Zero Carb protein drinks in the 20 oz. bottles. They have a bunch of flavors (grape, apple, punch, blue raspberry). they are 160 cals, 40 g protein - lactose free! They are a little pricey but the Vitamin Shop has them on sale now. I bought a few cases of them to stock up.
