Optimally, you want to eat enough P and workout hard enough to retain muscle. How much P are you eating before it's "too much?" Maybe it's enough. If you want to really get more P someday, drink protein powder to fill in the gaps. There's no need to force yourself to eat meat.
Thanks, that sounds like a good solution. And you make a good point, we are trying to do something that isnt natural. I guess that is key and I need to remind myself.
I weigh 140lbs and I tend to stop around 100g protein, so I am shy about 40g, which a protein shake will easily take care of....
