Biocentric Babe Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 New to forum, have no idea what I'm doing? Been vegan for about 1 year. I compete in fitness ( pre-vegan) considering doing a competition again, but this time all plant based. I am more fearful than anything. I do not want to embarrass myself. I do not know what the diet for the show would look like either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsjustrobbieok Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 What was your pre vegan contest diet? Maybe we can help swap out the non vegan foods! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallen_Horse Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 ...I do not want to embarrass myself.... I don't think there is much risk of that! Most people are pretty friendly, here AND at competitions. Don't get too much into what others might be thinking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biocentric Babe Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 Thanks everyone. I know my macros for the non vegan diet, I followed my friends plan, who won Fitness Universe, but as far as the diet for vegan, I had no idea what it should be. I try not to eat gluten either, but sometimes, I get too hungry.I really appreciate everyones' help. Truly...thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biocentric Babe Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Do you guys carb cycle on a plant based diet? I would feel the vegan diet, the macros would change? I followed my friend's diet, and I think the macros were 60protein/20 carbs/20fats? I just followed her diet plan. The diet was written out like meals. It did work, but i think i would have to have less protein and more carbs. Especially cutting out animal protein and replacing it with beans and lentils. Am i totally off or wrong?
