    Any vegan fighters out there?

    Are there any vegans on this forum? Care to share your diet and stats? I feel like I'm not getting enough protein after training. I mean I can only eat so many beans and nuts...

    Turn vegetarian and eat eggs

    Broccoli, asparagus, mushrooms

    Lentils, chickpeas in moderation as they are pro-estrogen

      Quinoa is a good 'grain' source to add to your meals.

      Green vegetables such as spinach and kale have good levels.

      Sprouted grain bread with almond or cashew butter packs quite a bit of protein.

      I know that some aren't keen on it but I often have scrambled tofu as a breakfast.

      If I'm training I'll have a post workout shake that contains hemp protein. There are also alternatives such as pea or brown rice protein.

      I noticed a few days ago that there are now quite a few books aimed at vegan athletes on Amazon. It may well be worth trying a few of those.

            This. Lentils is filled with proteins and good carbs.
