@cdlara381 Several things are true: Purely from a physical health standpoint - any amount of alcohol is harmful. The negative health impacts of a single drink is so negligible as to not be noticeable. From a social health standpoint - it's individual. I personally don't drink anymore...

@seinfeld Swap out the nuts for nut butters.

@seinfeld You're eating a lot of high fiber, high satiety, low calorie foods. cut out some of the fruits and seeds, replace them with nut butters. Add olive oil to your food. Eat some tofu and peanut butter. Replace some of the beans in your last meal with tofu or Seitan. Easier still, just...

@minidom TrueNutrition Vegan blend is about $11/lb

@reneaz Search the sub. This gets asked every week. Have some protein powder.

@adamhurst Have you tried it? I'm curious about this bothers other people's stomach the way animal whey does. Even before I went vegan I had switched to soy or pea protein because whey isolate always gave me stomach issues - discomfort, gas, diarrhea, etc, - even when it was lactose free...

@modsiwevoli 5 grams*

@bridgette26 Get one of the balanced vegan protein powders from a reputable brand like orgain, myprotein, etc. They're blends of pea, rice, etc that give you the same EAA blend as whey. Study after study has shown they're just as good as animal sources.

@iowakid8401 Yeah, you don't need that much protein. You're also more likely to stick to your diet if you aren't struggling to eat a lot of protein. Your priority should be hitting your calories goal, followed by protein.

@iowakid8401 Do you have much muscle already? If not, and your weight is mostly body fat, you can get by with a lot less protein. The optimal range is likely 0.7-1g/lb of bodyweight, which for you would be 165g-237 grams. Since it sounds like your primary goal is weight loss and you're a...

@runningwithfire I doubt there is a food that I eat every day, without fail, other than water. But these are foods I eat almost every day, less because of a specific nutritional content, more because they just fit into my diet broadly, they're relatively cheap, and they're versatile: Fats...

@felicitypenny Doesn't matter. It's about having enough in your system. You get that by taking it consistently. timing makes no difference, just take it when it's convenient for you. You don't need to take it in the car.

@ginger1108 Just add the powder to your protein shake along with your protein powder. It doesn't have to be a separate drink.

@nbabkina Try getting better coffee. When I drink cheaper coffee, it needs more creamer and sugar to taste good. Maybe change your method of preparation too if you can. Pour over is so much smoother. Also just try to slowly transition to having less cream and sugar. try it with 75% for a week...

@icameforhelp 3 possibilities: You are not actually eating that many calories, either weighing your food incorrectly or using the wrong entries. You have a very high metabolism or are just burninga lot at your job but are otherwise healthy and just need to eat a lot of food. You have some...

@flyingforjesus You mean you are planning on doing 300 days in the gym. And that number doesn't mean anything. Someone doing 150 days in the gym can make more progress than someone doing 300 days if they're working harder. My point is that you are putting a lot of effort into the 2%...

@flyingforjesus My advice? Spend less time trying to optimize and go start lifting. Lift heavy thing and put it down. Eat lots of protein. Get strong. I made my best progress when I pushed myself harder in the gym and ate a lot of food consisently. This is a good article though...

@unaidedbean Thanks for providing such thoughtful feedback. I started listening to SBS when I was still an Omni and had the same fear but there is actually a decent amount of vegan-friendly content on there. I think it's partly driven by Eric's recent lifestyle change but also that there has...
