Protein ideas on less meat??
Hi everyone....
I'd really like to hear from those that are managing to keep up their protein intake while eating less meat...and eating more plant sources of protein....from a former raw foodist/semi-vegetarian...I am wondering if it is possible to ever get back to more fruits and veggies....I miss how I felt while eating that way...but I know that my diet was like 10% protein at the time, the rest being healthy carbs & fats from natural sources. Currently, my ratios are just about equally split between carbs, fats, and protein.
If I don't eat meat or protein shakes at nearly every meal, I am way less than my requirements....I do eat dairy now and get some protein that way, but it's still not enough....
Also, I think I saw a post where Dr.Hollywood said she had good labs without eating meat...so if you'd like to tell me how....I'd appreciate it....thanks.
