With chicken it is best if you eat white meat, and remove the skin. Fish is the ultimate in high protein meat, and is lowest in fat. Any type of beans are high in protein. Eggs are a great choice, as well as low fat milk and cheese. When you choose to eat pasta or bread products make sure you eat whole grain. As with any diet get plenty of fruits and vegetables in daily. Exercise is always beneficial to a healthy diet, and lifestyle. Even if it is just walking around the block.

As with any diet consult your doctor before you begin a diet high in protein. Some patients who had kidney problem in the past may want to avoid a diet high in protein.
