How do I get more protein?

I’m a pescatarian who is also dairy free and gluten free. How am I supposed to get 150g of protein while eating 1,500 calories a day?

I did the math and it turns out that (on a good day) I’m only eating 60 grams of protein. Today I had about 46g of and I don’t feel agitated or hungry but I know I can’t build muscle like this. I’m told muscle is crucial to the weight loss process.

I don’t like thinking about too much what I’m eating because too much of that can cause me to spiral (I have a binging disorder.) I don’t like eating three meals a day. I’d rather have one meal in the afternoon with some snacks and then a smaller meal a few hours later.

I like fruits and they make up most of my diet but I am willing to cut some out if anyone can suggest some ideas on how I can get my protein up without having to change my diet.
