I did Medifast for 2 months and recently decided I can't handle the "food" anymore, so I'm following the Medifast plan with human food. (800-1000 calories, 10-30g of fat, carbs <100, and protein>70. I know I need to get the right nutrition if this is going to work, but it's tough to make the nutrition work on my own.
The only thing I'm really having a problem with is protein. I'm only getting about 30g most days. My main sources are eggs, Boca and Morningstar products, Special K Protein Plus cereal, and peanut butter (1 TBSP on a rice cake for a snack). I suppose I could eat more egg whites, so I'm going to try that. (By the way, I'm vegetarian)
Does anyone have a suggestion for getting more protein without adding too much in the way of calories and carbs? Why can't they make a magic protein pill?! The protein pills on the market are basically useless, as far I can tell...I'd need to take about 40 of them to meet my RDI!
