Kris M Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) Hello all, I happened across this board. I am a ovo-lacto vegetarian hobby bodybuilder. I would like to become a vegan for ethical reasons, but I am allergic to soy, and I really don't know how to get enough protein to meet a bodybuilders requirements eating only plant sources and no soy. I would be ever thankful if anyone here could point me in the right direction to find more info on diets and high protein soy-free plant based meals. I literally have no idea how I could get 150 grams of protein a day from a soy free vegan diet. Thanks in advance, Kris Edited June 3, 2010 by Kris M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Welcome to the group Kris! Great to have you here. I've been soy-free for 2 months now so I'm sure I can be of some help. Check out my food journal in the journals section. Peace! -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sosso Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Hi Kris, welcome to the forum. Robert wrote some example soy-free meal plans here - http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/?page=article_soyfree Robert mentions Vega in some of those meal plans, but if you can't get it, try rice protein powder.
