Protein

I’ve been tracking what I eat on www.fitday.com. Does anyone else track what they eat? I have found that I’m not getting enough protein. The nutritionist says 20% protein, 20% fat and 60% carbs. My fat to carbs ratio has been nearly 50/50, not 60/20. I eat avocados, once a day for the good fat but it really throws off my fat ratio. How do you get enough protein through out the day??

Good sources of protein are as humanimal says, greens. Green smoothies are powerful too. It’s pretty hard to consume the amount of greens normally, and making smoothies is an excellent way to get that amount of whole foods into you. Just make sure you chew. Some greens I’d suggest are sunflower sprouts and wheatgrass. They’re both pretty high up there in protein and nutrient capability.
