I've been trying to eat more vegetarian for ethical reasons, but my body doesn't tolerate the extra carbohydrates very well. I have pretty bad insulin resistance, even with exercise. My doctor wants me to eat a small carb & protein (10-20 grams) meal every 3 hours. Do any of you manage a higher protein vegetarian/vegan diet? I'd love ideas.0

I'm a higher protein veggie. I'd probably ethically prefer to be vegan, but my body needs the balance of moderate carbs and higher protein. I'm not sure how I'd do that without dairy and eggs. I also have celiac disease, and that would cut out some good sources of vegan protein.

Vegan here. Heyoooo.
Question is, what don't I eat?
ETA it's for ethical reasons. Veganism is not a diet. It is a way of living that excludes animal products and exploitation from all aspects of life, not just your diet. If you're just doing it for diet it's not vegan, it's "plant-based." Not one for labels but I just thought I'd clear up some confusion0 -
Smoothie for breakfast with some Sun Warrior protein has been helping me stay full until lunchtime. I have been vegan a few years and vegetarian 10 years in May. I am not having a hard time finding foods to eat but I cook a lot. Also am lucky to work near several good vegan friendly places. Happy to see so many vegans here0

Good to see so many vegans and people who want to eat plant based and also are aware of ethical treatment of animals.0

Another vegan here: mainly ethical. I love the cookbook Veganomicon, so mostly cook from that. About to start on 'Vegan Eats World' by same author.
Feel free to send a friend request.0 -
Hi! Ethical and environmental reasons here (plus milk is weird. It's just... why does anyone drink that.) I might also have been a little influenced by Arch Enemy >.>
And you can get more than enough calories on a vegan diet! Ahem, chocolate granola.0 -
