Shit man, 80kg sounds massive to me. I couldn't even imagine being that big ?!

One day maybe...

@Mini Forklift: yeah...that's the point! U gotta try everything for yourself, which is probably one of the reasons this sport takes a lot of time and u gotta spend some years to find the right way for you.
Actually i had quite a good week since my weight is going down and shape's gettin better...

just luv to see this kind of progress. A deeper cut here, a few more veins there... this always motivates me as hell! ^^

Hey, i will feel rather small at 80kg... started out at almost 97! *lol*

How was your week mate?

86,2kg... went up with my calories so i won't lose too much size (about 400 calories more)...seems to work so far.

Okay guys, this is how my diet looks like:

1. meal: a big shake consisting of 700ml water, 1 banana, 125g mixed berries, 150g spinach, 50g soy protein powder

2. meal: 1-2 carrots, cucumber salad with 3 tablespoons rapeseed oil, shake with 50g soy protein powder in water

3. meal: about 500-700g fried mixed vegetables, 50g walnuts, shake with 50g soy protein powder in water

4. meal: shake with 50g soy protein powder in water (before i go to sleep)

All in all: 1840kcal, 69g fat, 86g carbs, 215g protein

Hi Arvid, how long have you been eating such an amount of soy p.p. for? Haven't you experienced any sides like loss of libido? I'm impressed and scared at the same time thinking I might have to eat similar quantities of protein powder to achieve certain results.

what's your body fat?

I don't know the percentage, i don't measure... i mainly use my mirror to check if everything works out the way i want.

Actually i use soy protein powder since i turned vegan. U don't get so many different vegan protein powders here in germany, and most of them are really expensive!! So i always used soy protein... can't report anything negative up to now...

At the moment i use soy isolat by pnc-europe... it's made in germany and only available here, but i'm gonna try the soy 80+ by weider now. U get various soy proteins in germany, but everything else (rice, pea, hemp etc.) is quite hard to get... only for very high prices.

Thanks!! How long have you been vegan for?
Ever tried hemp protein powder?

Arvid Beck · **Posted:** Tue Mar 12, 2013 1:30 pm

I'm vegan since 2011... no, haven't tried hemp protein up to now. But i'd like to try various protein powders!

I make my blends on truenutrition.com, not sure if they service out your way though.

Great shape! I didn't know that kind of massive musclemass was possible on a vegan diet (or without roids for that matter).
