A typical day for me looks like this:
Right when I wake up: Protein shake (25g)
Breakfast: Greek yogurt (I recommend Fage, it's so good! But Chobani is also high in protein) (12g), 2 eggs (12g), some fruit (total 25g)
Lunch #1: Salmon spring rolls, or tuna salad wrap, or turkey breast wrap (15g)
Lunch #2: Same as Lunch #1 (I split my lunch into two sections) (15g)
Dinner: Beef/chicken/fish salad, or chicken pasta (15g)
After gym or golf: Protein shake (25g)
Some other good sources of protein are mozzarella cheese, nuts (almonds are good), dark leafy greens.
I just recently started adding simple carbs back into my diet because I want to gain in my butt and protein alone was just causing me to convert fat to muscle (lose inches).
Hope that helps! I think you should get your temp and your protein intake in line and then re-evaluate after a few months. I'm similar to you, no hormone inbalances as far as I can tell, though it's always been hard for me to grow/gain weight. I start BO nx wk after months on PM and a MT cleanse.. I'm crossing my fingers!
