Hello! Ok I'm 15 years old, 5'7" and 188-190lbs. I've been really wanting to go vegan for a while now but the only problem is, I don't want it to hurt any potential I have to make it into the ifbb world of bodybuilding. (Yes I know it's a VERY unrealistic goal, but it's my dream and I want to try). I am not working out so I can just have a better or fit body or whatever, I really want this to be a big part of my future, to become pro and see how far I can go in the ranks. I really want to be vegan but I really want to reach my highest potential to go far in this sport. Would going away from meats really hold me back? My diet right now is this. Meal 1: 1 can tuna 1, 1/2 cup oats 8oz V8 fusion juice 1oz Almonds Meal 2: 6-8oz Meat (chicken, steak, or fish) 1 cup oats 8oz orange juice Meal 3: 1 scoop Protein shake Meal 4: 6-8oz Meat 1, 1/2 cup oats 8oz orange juice 1oz Almonds Green beans Meal 5: 1 scoop protein shake 1 cup oats 8oz orange juice Meal 6(PWO): 2 scoop protein shake 1 cup oats 16oz V8 fusion juice Meal 7(right before bed): 6-8oz Meat 1 cup oats 1oz Almonds And I would be switching it to this. Same exact thing, just different protein sources. Meal 1: 3 serving hemp protein 1, 1/2 cup oats 8oz V8 fusion juice 1oz Almonds Meal 2: 1 scoop soy protein 1 cup oats 8oz orange juice Meal 3: 70/30 gemma/rice protein shake Meal 4: 1 scoop soy protein 1, 1/2 cup oats 8oz orange juice 1oz Almonds Green beans Meal 5: 70/30 gemma/rice protein shake 1 cup oats 8oz orange juice Meal 6(PWO): 70/30 gemma/rice protein shake 1 cup oats 16oz V8 fusion juice Meal 7(right before bed): 1 scoop soy protein 1 cup oats 1oz Almonds (I can/will switch some protein sources up, That is just an example pretty much.) Not sure if I should keep the hemp protein though, I've been reading that the amino acid ratio is bad form one of the threads here comparing hemp, soy, 70/30 rice and ect... I'm still trying to figure out which vegan protein sources are best and are as close as possible to meat/whey. I also take a multi vitamin, creatine, glucosamine, and BCAA's. And would continue to do so on a vegan diet. Btw, here is what I would be taking Hemp: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/nutiva/hempprotein.html Soy: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/univ/soy.html 70/30 gemma/rice from Trueprotein. BCAA: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/now/branch.html Vitamin: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ast/multi-pro.html Creatine: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/hp/creatine.html Thank you so much if you can help. Sorry if these questions don't belong in this section. I just figured I might as well place them in here since I'm new.
