Do you use Protein supplements? I've had to cut those out of my diet since cutting out meat/diary completely because I was consuming too much protein.
Look into a plant based diet or the CO2 produced from meat consumption?
I use whey protein if that's what you mean? If you don't mind me asking do you track macro's? I can't see how you could eat the amount of protein I do while keeping your carbs and fats relatively low on a plant based diet.
Plant based. You get your protein and cut out the bad fats from meat/diary. Whey is generally cows milk yeh, I guess you can probably get it from goats etc too? There are plant alternatives but not sure what the proper name for them is.
I used to do macros but haven't over the last year, I only get about 2 hours a week to work out lately. I suffered from an eating disorder and macros helped me maintain a healthy weight and then it pushed me to bulk up and go further. I haven't had to do any of that since a diet change, hopefully I can keep that up.
But it is possible on plants for sure. It's a common misconception that meat = only way to get lots of protein. The animals for the meat get their protein from the plants they eat, so it's an inefficient way of getting protein. There are a lot of bodybuilders and UFC fighters and all of those kind of professions now where they are on a plant diet. I follow a few bodybuilders on Instagram and they are absolute monsters
The largest animals in the world maintain their size from eating plants.
