    If you eat chicken you're obviously not a vegetarian...why eat so little meat?

    You can use Whey protein shakes, soy protein, cottage cheese, beans/lentils/nuts....though meat is ideal in most cases.

    I never claimed ot be a vegitarian. I honestly don't like the taste. The only meats I would eat were processed like hamburg which is less than health. Other meats like steak and fish don't taste good to me and I can't eat with out getting sick.

    So I guess back to the original question, how can I get around this and still be eating well?

    I know you didn't claim to be one

    Extra lean ground beef, particularly ground sirloin is okay for you....it's not "unhealthy"....make it yourself of course, don't buy pre-cooked or pre-formed burgers.

    Don't forget eggs -- especially whites, and you might give Quorn a try. (I finally found it at a Fresh Fields in my area a couple of months ago, and I really like it.)
    There's one way to find out....

    Soy sausage

    I love "Gimme Lean" Soy sausage. One serving is 50 calories and has 8 g protein. Obviously you can vary the portion size.
