When I track, I try to prioritize and I struggle to get over 150g consistently. Especially when I'm eating sub 2500-2800 calories. I can see how others might have difficulty..

I’m doing a cut right now and am eating at a 2400-2500 cal deficit. I’m also constantly hitting over 250 grams of pro a day. Yes, supplementing with whey powder helps, but skinless chicken breast, tuna, shrimp and lean beef/bison have an insane protein per calorie ratio. I enjoy eating each of those too, so I use them in different ways and recipes. It’s not really hard.

I don't see many options with a ratio better than 10 to 1, calories to protein (2000 calories- 200g protein). So if your eating 2500 and hitting 250g with room to spare, I'm curious how you are doing it. Unless it's a carnivore/keto diet and your are eating tons of meat. More power to you if so. That would just jack my stomach up..
