How do you eat/hit your protein goals every day? (hackertalks.com)

I'm on a program right now where I'm supposed to eat 150 plus grams of protein everyday.

It's unreasonably difficult to eat enough protein to hit the target. I get full and stuffed, I don't want to eat anymore, I still have like half the protein to go.

For people who are eating their target protein levels, how do you do it? How do you keep it palatable? How do you prevent satiety from stopping you?

Don't get me wrong, the food I cook tastes great, for the first 10 or 20 bites. But then, much like sailing across the oceans, halfway to plate clear, I hit the doldrums. The fork is heavy, the food is dense, the stomach is sending off leave me alone signals.

Maybe try eating 4-5 smaller meals a day? "Grazing" rather than large filling meals
