Plus I can't eat gluten / wheat, oats, or broccoli / cruciferous veggies. As a result it's hard to get enuf protein. I'm now 67, but a only a few years ago I was pretty fit.

@wil_driver 2 year vegan here. I start my mornings with oatmeal, with protein powder, nuts and fruit. Lunch is typically veggies and pasta, a shake, or some sort of sandwich. Dinner is almost always veggies, beans, and a grain. I get anywhere from 110-135g protein per day!

I'm not vegetarian, but eat a lot of meatless meals. I don't find a vegetarian diet challenging in terms of protein as you can still eat eggs and dairy on top of plant based sources.1 -

legumes of various forms will be your go-to for protein (specifically: lysine requirements). peas, lentil pasta (processed), seitan, etc. You should fairly easily be able to reach reasonable levels of protein with a little planning if you're not strict on carb intake.2 -
