I've found some salvation in MET-Rx protein plus bars, Carnation Instant Breakfast mixed into 2% milk, drinking up to 2 qts of milk alone, and BeneProtein (from the makers of Metamucil and Benefiber) mixed into milk, iced tea, water, etc. Oh, and peanut butter works well, along with sardines (but not at the same time). These protein boosters have helped me eat normally, and not forego the carbs and veggies because of needing so much protein.

God whispers in your soul and speaks to your mind.
Sometimes when you don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at you.
It's your choice: Listen to the whisper, or wait for the brick.
