From the whole list only two times a week. I understand how you feel, though--I wanted to eat salmon and red meat much more often than I was allowed.
Have you tried bison? I used ground bison in my MRC Texas chili, as well as with a mock-spaghetti made with spaghetti squash. I even made bison burger wraps once in a while--grill the ground bison as patties, the wrap it in a tortilla (or open-faced on the 45-cal bread) with tomato, lettuce, and mustard. I also made buffaloaf (bison meatloaf) once in a while, with my veggies hidden in it--and now my husband actually prefers my MRC-friendly buffaloaf to regular meatloaf.
My husband also hunts deer, so we did venison once in a while, too. You have to be careful with venison, though, as it can get tough during cooking.
You will get through this! Check the recipe thread for some ideas to change it up--eating plain chicken or fish gets really boring really fast. Have you tried the ranch chicken fingers yet, for example? Yum!
