Anyone vegan here?
I've been eating plant based for the past week and feel dizzy/weak despite eating enough calories. I already have a good foundation of muscle and have been lifting for 3 years. Any tips?
>>34990866
My experience with vegan diet is the same plus muscle loss in the long run. I don't recommend it.
>>34990866
>vegan diet
>>34990875
This
Vegetarian now and feel a lot less terrible
I tried vegan and it didn't work for me. Not enough proteins and my recuperation were shit. I went from 5 times a week to 3 times a week since my muscles were always sore. But then again I'm 5'11 215lbs... I think vegan is only good for ottermode
I still eat a plant based-diet, but include egg whites and fish and doing damn fine at the moment
>>34990866
pro tip those so called veganz cheat and eat meat every now and then
like that fraud vegan gainz. it's a gains suckrt get out now friend
>>34990866
You need to eat some food, son.
>>34990866
Are you telling me you went full herbivore OP? You're trying to rebuild your masterspecies omnivorous body with plants? PLANTS?
How can you gain the strength of the Beast if you do not consume the Beast?
Do you want to flap in the wind like a leaf?
Or do you want to soar like the TurboFalcon?
>>34990924
so I should just eat meat like once every couple weeks as a cheat meal?
>>34991207
Every three days or so is my recommendation. To avoid fatigue and muscle loss.
>>34991207
Not necessarily meat but eat fish and maybe eggs and dairy from time to time when you feel weak. It will help.
>>34990866
How much fat and protein have you been eating OP?
>>34992126
30-50g fat 70-90g protein
>>34992147
alright that's reasonable
what are your carbs at? for 215 pounds you should be eating well over 700g of carbs especially if you're doing cardio or relatively active at all
>>34992147
I mean you probably need somewhere around 900g of carbs or more depending on what your goals are
>>34992186
>4410 kcal daily
Are you retarded?
>>34992273
>depending on what your goals are
>>34992273
My point is that if you're getting the symptoms you described you're plain and simple not eating enough
Weird how only herbivores can get clogged by cholesterol desu senpai
>>34992289
You're right. OP's goal might be to become a whale.

Dont bother, fit.has an unhealthy obsession with macrod
>>34992311
Whats your point? Is this meant to moot veganism lol
>>34990866
Was vegan for 6 months. Ended up hospitalized because I thought I could just eat all plants and make no effort with micronutrients and vitamins and shit. Everything was low. Doc gave me a choice: regimen of vitamins and pills and supplements and stuff along with regular blood work to make sure I'm not fucking up my body, or start eating meat again.
>>34991207
I legitimately don't understand....
Wtf!?
Why just why? Force yourself go vegan
But you want to eat meat (note: nothing like craving meat. Or obsessed with meat. Just normally eat it)
So why the fuck??? Why go vegan???
Is that American life is so boring that people literately have to force themselves do some stupid fuckihg none sense?
>>34992328
potato chip and coke diet huh?
>>34992328
Or jus eat do the vegan thing properly
>>34992340
Wow
>>34992301
>My point is that if you're getting the symptoms you described you're plain and simple not eating enough
No.
Anything else?
>>34992343
Never was much for junk food. Greens and beans and fruit and whatnot. I have nutrient absorption problems that popped up when I stopped eating meat.
lmao Amerikeks are so funny
I bet you also don't eat any gluten
>>34992340
Keeping eating that yogurt, muhammad
>>34992349
Doing the vegan thing "properly" for me would have been the pills and vitamins and supplements and bloodwork. Or did you not get to that part of the post?
>>34992340
We are evolving, catch up, use your head
>>34992364
eat more for a few days and tell me im wrong
just because you calculated your BMR on bodybuilding.com doesn't mean it's anywhere near right
The answer is kale.
Grind kale up with rice milk and berries to really get it all in.
But make sure you are getting enough vitamins.
Anything that could be added to the diet;
Pistachios
Activated almonds
Rice milk
Broccoli
Look into complete and incomplete proteins as well
>>34992391
Or just eating a balanced vegan diet, most other people get it, and I thought someone with fitness would be.able to.do something quite simple.
>>34992391
You're literally just a little baby you can't eat his vegetables
the only thing you need to supplement is b12
kthxbye
>>34992410
Ps I would go vegan but I love my greek yogurt
>>34992422
This is correct.
If you are vegan you have to basically eat shitty vegetables, literally, to get b12.
>>34992428
Be alpha and accept sacrafice has to be made for the greater good.
>>34992420
B12 supps, leafy greens, fruit, whole grains, beans, algae omega threes? Those aren't a balanced vegan diet?
Tell me, oh lord genius vegan, what you know better than a nutritionist who specializes in vegan diets. Not me, the nutritionist who consulted on my case while I was in the hospital.
>>34992405
I recognize your writing, Pedo Vegan. Shoo.
>>34990866
>I've been eating plant based for the past week and feel dizzy/weak despite eating enough calories.
>he fell for the vegan meme
>>34992455
>nutritionist
>scientist
pick one
>>34992402
Maybe that's the reason why Amerifags are mostly manlets
>>34990866
god damn dude what did you do to yourself? you looked pretty good in sept 14 but you look weird as fuck right now
>>34992422
Except I was supplementing B12.
>>34992459
>>34992455
If you get the nutrients and calories you need, your body wouldnt of fucked up
>>34992468
"registered dietitian"
sorry, I forgot "nutritionist" was anyone who called themselves that
>>34992479
it probably wasn't cyano then
>>34992489
According to the nutritionist's breakdown of my diet, I was eating the nutrients I needed. I just wasn't absorbing them.
>>34990866
>Grows an inch
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>34992506
so that's definitely the vegan diets fault and not your shitty digestion's
>>34992481
No. Shoo. Away, before I set the feral manlets on you.
>>34992504
Doc tried a B12 shot first thing. Made no difference.
>>34992380
Eating meat=Muslim?
Top kek you fuckers need vitamin supplies to support your absolutely useless diet
>>34992523
Never said it couldn't work for some people, just that it didn't work for me.
>>34992526
U should make sure you get enough zinc. Try taking supplements or better eat these since you are a vegan.

the greater good being your shitty physique that you think will get you laid but wont because youre still just a beta hanging out on 4chan.
That´s the last thing anything should be sacrificed for.
>>34990866
I'm vegan - for almost 10 years.
How about you post what you eat, incl macros, calorie intake. Then maybe can give advice.
But if it's immediate reaction, could be your body adjusting to no meat no eggs, it's a huge transition.
If it's from longer term veganism, you should experiment with increasing cals, changing macros and maybe considering eggs like someone mentioned.
