Mahi mahi or any type of grilled fish like that works well for me.

dense protein includes chicken, fish, meats, cheese, eggs.  You'll have to see what you can tolerate.  Like others have said, it will be difficult to get the amount of protein required in.  I still have problems doing so 11 years out.  Good luck.

How do,you add in veggies, etc when still working toward protein goal? Or depending on vitamins for that?

thanks

Im a make it easy girl, and honestly I hate to cook...  so something I can throw in a baggie and take to work is best for me.  A few frozen shrimp Precooked. or Some lunchmeat, or a few oz smoked salmon, or a hard boiled egg (did you know you can get them already boiled & peeled?)  I do the protein in my coffee in the AM so its not sweet, and just eat some of the meat out of whatever my "boys" are having for dinner, :-)  Good luck in your journey!!

Shrimp! I'm 3 weeks out and have been having 2oz of shrimp and it's filling and very high  protein. It also cooks very fast. I usually have it with said zucchini and onions, or tomatoes and garlic. 

Shrimp gives me the best bang for my buck.

So good and I just happened to have an avocado, so I chopped it up and added to zucchini, tomatoes and onions. Really good and you are right very filing.

Chicken breast cooked on the Cuisinart Griddler. Pot roast in the Crock Pot. Pulled pork with sugar-free BBQ sauce. Gardein faux "chicken" strips. Those are my super-filling meaty proteins, but even technical "liquids" like Greek yogurt tend to fill me up. I still have a protein shake for breakfast every morning, but I never feel full from it; it's just something easy to grab as I run out the door.

Chicken, steak, pork,harder cheeses like cheddar, fish, shrimp, scallops, or pretty much any meat you can think of are good examples of dense protein. Venison, goose, duck, platypus...yada yada yada....

At the stage you're at now, I didn't worry about calories, but I understand that some plans have people counting calories from the get-go.
