My prescription has stayed at the same tiny strength since fall, and my meal plan is still fighting me. Dining hall chicken is either sawdust or soup, so I've become the person who microwaves eggs in a mug and hoards tuna packets like they're textbooks.
I tracked 30 days of dorm dinners: average 38g protein, about $2.80 per plate, and at least one sad broccoli moment per week. The weird win is leaving half a quesadilla without a full internal funeral.
I'm not asking for medical advice, just crowdsourcing ideas: what's your cheapest dorm-friendly protein that doesn't taste like regret? Canned lentils are my current MVP, but I'm open to upgrades.
