As the title says , nurse said I should be drinking 3 litres a day from yesterday and up my protein.
Just wondered what any of you lovely ladies ate on a typical day to up your protein.

Eggs, hummus, chicken, red meat, yoghurt, milk, chickpeas. Greek yoghurt is best, higher in protein than most yoghurts. Scrambled egg with avocado is really good with a dash of Tabasco.
I drink sparkling water to help water intake and sometimes add cordial. I find it helps having a big bottle to see how much you're drinking or else use a pint glass. I also have a recipe for protein rich pancakes where you add some whey protein powder. I've already been through treatment but I continued the habit of eating these pancakes every Sunday. Protein will keep you fuller for longer too so you tend to eat less crap. You could think about going to see a dietitian for some advice too. x
