One of the other boards I am on, I was told that you could substitute estimated lean body mass for your BW on the protein equation. That would drop your protein requirements a little bit (but I don't know how accurate that information is).

I used Protein Powder, egg whites and seafood (tilapia and shrimp) to help increase my protein intake. I generally get the flash frozen tilapia and cottage cheese at Sam's because it's cheaper than going to the local market. Shrimp however, I generally go to the fish market to get, cuz I can get a better deal there than I can anywhere else.

I also do ground turkey. Honeysuckle Ground turkey runs 3.59/lb for the 93/7 mix and 3.95/lb for the 97/3 mix. Jennie O (at least in my area) Runs almost $6.00 a lb.
