How can you consume 200 grams of protein?

[rockin813]

Can someone give me an idea of how to consume 200grams of protein (no more than 1 whey shake).

I had bowl of kashi and skim milk this am - 15g protein
3oz of deli sliced chicken breast - approx 20g protein?
3oz beef stirfry (thai food) - 25g protein?
4oz Tilapia - 20g protein

going to have whey shake post w/o - 22g protein
chicken for dinner - 25 g protein

that's roughly 120-130 g protein give or take.

adding another shake would help. what else can i eat? that's a lot of food as it is!

thanks

Drink milk every waking moment.

[rockin813]

Drink milk every waking moment.

I guess i only get a cup (at most) in the am with my kashi cereal. maybe need some before bed. isn't it a lot of carbs also?

getting bison meat today (97% lean) so that'll help get me some more protein. but damn...its hard to get 200g in one day (without taking more than one shake...maybe i need two whey shakes).

double every portion you mentioned.

[PowerD]

double every portion you mentioned.

exactly. 4oz of tilapia? i have 12 oz baking in the oven right now

[nakedsnake]

throw 1/2 scoop of whey w/ 1 cup milk that's 31 grams of protein right there and ~ 140 calories. you have 4 cups of milk like that a day and you are already almost 3/4 the way there.

chicken for dinner - 25 g protein

You seriously consider 3oz of chicken to be "dinner"? A decent chicken breast is around 7 oz, which has 60g of protein. If you eat 2 cans of tuna fish (in water), add another 60g protein. A shake with 3 scoops of whey gives you about another 60. Already with these three things you're up to 180. 1 tilapia fillet is 20g of protein, with only 100 cals. Eat three fillets and you have yet another 60, for a total of 240.

200g of protein a day is simple.

Eggs / egg whites, cottage cheese, canned tuna, yogurt mixed with some whey, ...

[brett_]

a large can of tuna has 75g of protein, add some bread and you're looking at over 80g in one meal

[patv]

Add eggs, oats and milk.

[k9nacl]

have a lean, complete protein source with every meal. if you eat at LEAST 5 meals a day, and have a complete protein source with each one, you should easily hit at least 150-180g. most complete protein sources, ie; chicken, beef, eggs, etc. all contain 20-40g per hearty serving (say 6oz chicken, beef, steak, etc.), plus, add in protein from your fats and carbs and you should be well over 200. every meal MUST have a complete protein source.

I like cottage cheese (though I limit it due to the salt).

1 serving: Add 15grams


Eggs are nice (I eat no more than three due to cholesterol in them)

3 eggs: Add 18 grams

Tuna filets aren't bad (I buy the precooked/flavored ones):

Add (around) 40 grams


My protein shakes have 42 grams of protein (in other words, add 20 grams to yours


That is a total of an extra 115 grams right there, if you like those foods (and if they work with your overall diet plan).

[Who?]

Your not eating very much actually, throw in some Peanut butter, eggs, oats, and some cottage cheese.

[rockin813]

WOW...thanks for opening up my eyes!

I may have been doing the math wrong (protein in chicken breast is more than 25g). Also, more whey isn't that a bad idea. Increase in my Tilapia intake works (as it's not filling). Gonna get some egg whites in my am breakfast. Lastly, gonna pull out the cans of Tuna from the closet and eat straight from the can.

Thanks everyone!

[benz5521]

TUNA! One can has like 40g. Peanut butter is another good choice and your going to have to drink more protein shakes.

[Calipe]

Chicken Breast. 6 oz have like 40 grams of protein. I never have a problem getting enough protein. Eggs, milk, fish, are all good sources too.

[Appetite]

This is House from animal paks off season diet. Not done the maths but fairly sure its more than 200g.

Meal #1 twelve egg whites, half cup oats
Meal #2 real gains and some fruit
Meal #3 16 oz of beef, 1 cup of greens
Meal #4 Sixty gram whey shake, half cup oats
Meal #5 16 oz of chicken, 1 cup of greens
Meal #6 twelve egg whites and some peanut butter

Here is a quick look at my fitday journal, I haven't used whey at all today.

I'm about to go grill up a nice New York Strip Steak (9 oz.) and that'll give me like an additional 40-50 grams of protein.

It's definitely possible man, I wasn't even using whey until recently and I was able to get in a decent amount of protein. The shakes help, but they aren't necessary.

[baby matty]

check out the vid on youtube of that dude eating the 106 oz steak! that would be what, like almost 700 grams? the dude is actually a member of this forum

[br0_r0gan]

you just gotta eat more food!!!

1 cup of cottage cheese is 30 grams and it's easy to throw down

[Contrastyle]

Meat is your friend. TONS OF IT.

[Ryall]

Milk, peanut butter, Whey, Chicken, Tuna. Repeat.

Lol, seriously though, if you eat the right stuff (looks like you are?) you can get in basically as much protein as you want..Just eat more of it.

[ThaifooN]

that kvk guy ate ****ing 700 grams of protein in ONE MEAL

thanks

4oz of protein at each meal is about 25-30g of protein.. eat 6-7 meals a day and your set.. add your PWO shake

Eat oats in the mroning instead of cereal, and eat more meals

[Sleepstream]

Why only one shake? Protein shakes aren't a bad source of protein. As long as the EAAs are covered, then there should be no worries about the source.

[BlueFenix13S]

Check my log

Sample:
Eggs, lean meat, cheese with breakfast
1-2 scoops of whey protein as snack
6-8oz fish with lunch
6-8oz turkey as snack
7-8oz chicken for dinner
1-2 cans of tuna and/or cheese before bed

I EASILY get 230-240g a day

I prefer to eat my food. Supplements only serve me in crunch situations. Whey isn't bad, just not ideal for 1/2 your daily protein intake IMO

[U295]

For me ....

2 whey = 5o protein
2 more whey after workout
2 chicken breast
10 eggs

[EddyGordo]

200 grams is nothing my friend.

I eat 1 bag (500 grams) of cottage cheese during the day, thats 20grams of protein per 100g, so it adds up to 100grams of protein just from cottage cheese, mix it with natural jam's and its delicious.
I eat 6 eggs every day, adds up to approx 36grams
Then 1-2 wheys which gets me 25-50 grams
And obviously some red meat or chicken aswell, always gets me above 200 grams.

The secret is cottage cheese

[Blowmahheadoff]

You can probably consume moar protein by eating more proteins.
