4 those who get in 100g's of protein daily
Early out, I was doing 2 protein shakes a day, one first thing in the morning and one at night. Now at 2 years out, I still start every day with a protein shake. I just feel better, and it's like my "insurance policy".

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
I get between 90 & 110 g of protein a day among 800-900 calories.
Typical day:
2x's protein coffee (1/2 scoop Nectar Capucchino in 1/4 cup milk topped off the mug with half decaf half regular coffee)
Cheese snack, either a mini brie with melba and NSA raspberry jam or a mini babybel.
Protein rich lunch. Usually involving either a little can of flavoured tuna or some concoction made with sliced chicken breasts
Yogurt and some kind of nut snack.
protein rich dinner, usually focusing on chicken, sometimes fish like haddock or tilapia. I rarely eat grains, but when I do it's usually an ice cube's worth of quinoa.
Something desserty, usually a NSA pudding with some cool whip
Protein drink 1 brimming scoop Nectar Iced Tea in 32 oz glass with a packet of crystal light (and added fibre, powdered calcium citrate and magnesium citrate)
On a day where I work out hard (usually aquafit or a training walk) I add an extra shake, usually made like the last one.
