Protein is in most every food-so you don't have to eat just meats. One meat like food that is good cause you can fix it tons of ways is Portebella mushrooms. Mushrooms are low in carbs and are pretty tasty. I don't eat ANY meat and I average around 50g or 51g of protein a day. According to my current weight, I need around 53g of protein. I looked up how to calculate what I need and according to what I have read you take your weight in pounds divide it by 2.2 to get your weight in kg and multiple that by .8. So, If I use my weight as 146/ 2.2=66.36 kg 66.36*.8=53g of protein per day.

Maybe you should try widening the types of foods you eat. Use this as a time to figure out what kinds of veggies you like.
