    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    @bankboy100 I've only been running this much mileage for the last several months, but I've been struggling with constipation for years. I've had it through periods where I was almost sedentary, so I don't think the running is to blame.

    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    @clairexu It was Garden of Life that gave me issues. I eat crazy amounts of fiber, averaging about 75 g/day which is 300% my recommended. I have had constipation issues forever, and eating more fiber has never helped for whatever reason.

    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    @sweetmama7896 I have tried stopping certain foods, which is how I figured out that nuts and protein powder mess me up.

    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    @secretpk I drink 4-5 liters of water/day, especially because I run and have to rehydrate. Fiber intake averages 75 g/day which is 300% my recommended daily. I know I need to see a doctor. I've been putting it off, but this has come up multiple times in this thread, so maybe I will finally do it!

    @personalizedbook Yeah I think there is a larger issue going on. I should probably go to a doctor and just haven't gotten around to it yet. High fiber intake is from lots of vegetables, beans, whole grains and potatoes. I drink lots of water, enough that my pee is light in color. I have gone...

    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    @dawn16 Lol no way would one box of pasta be 4 servings for me, but I think the price is totally worth it. Cheaper than powder!

    How to get enough protein without protein powder?

    Everything makes me constipated. This includes protein powder and seitan. Struggling to hit my protein goals. Current primary sources are legumes, tofu and edamame. I also get random amounts of protein from all the kale, broccoli, brussel sprouts and random vegetables I eat, but it's not enough...
