Not vegan per se but I eat a block of tofu a day as well as another several servings of roasted edamame most days. Like 6-8 servings per day on average
Girl that is like so much soy 😭😭😭 you’re like the potato guy* I met but for soy
*potato guy: decided to eat only potatoes for 6 weeks, slight amount of milk and salt being a treat on the weekends. He heard that potatoes had all essential nutrients. He gave up bc he became ill in that last week. Yes he’s heterosexual.
Haha yeah it’s a lot, I aim for like 150g of protein every day for strength training. The block of tofu is like 50g and the edamame is like another 40 so it just makes every other meal way easier. I definitely wouldn’t recommend eating nothing but soy tho lol. I think regardless of what you pick you’d eventually get sick if you just ate one thing.
The rest of my diet mainly consists of a lot of different bags of frozen veggies. Pretty much cycle through every type my store offers, usually pan fried, or soups in the colder months.
Oatmeal and homemade bread, a few servings of fruit each day including frozen berries and dried fruit, and on the non vegan side I have eggs, cheese, and greek yogurt. Weekends I do more fresh veggie prep as well as have “fun” foods like ice cream or whatever.
It works great for me, admittedly a lot of soy but I think that particular neuroticism of mine is actually quite tame in context; most bodybuilders pretty much do the same thing but w/ chicken breast or lean ground beef

How does that compare to the average bovine?
Edit: a quick search says 2-3 pounds of soy a day.

What does this has to do with a potato-only diet 🤣
I feel like the gall and gumption to do a potato only diet is the kind of thing only a straight man could possess. Maybe I’m stereotyping a bit LMAO
He’s not tubersexual.
