DD is 13.
Breakfast was 2 eggs on naan bread with cheese 24g protein
Lunch ramen with veggies (corn/carrots/edamame) 14g protein

Mango smoothie just now with greek yogurt, mango, almond milk, chia seeds. 16g protein
That’s 54g already today and hasn’t had dinner yet.

Eggs and milk products on a vegetarian diet? Ok.

What’s wrong with eggs and milk? OP didn’t say vegan diet.

Vegetarian diet = no meat of any kind including fish. Eggs are classified as "meat" as they are embryos.

Vegetarian diet shouldn't have milk products really, but that's a fine line.

The most common type of vegetarian diet is the lacto-ovo vegetarian diet. That includes eggs and milk products. Vegans do not consume any of these.

The eggs we eat aren't embryos. How can you possibly not know that?

There are no roosters on egg farms.

You eat those kind of eggs? Ewwww. Pale yellow goo. I eat only free range real eggs.

Whether a chicken is free range has nothing to do with whether a chicken has mated. Free range chicken farmers, including people who keep birds in their backyards, don't have roosters.

This would not be enough to sustain my 40 year old moderately active self. Shame on you OP.

Yes it is. You’ll end up on a GLP by 45 because of your overeating.

This person who thinks eggs are embryos is so weird.

Tell us you are a suburban person with no experience at any sort of ranching, by being so obvious about it.

OP was specific that her kid is eating eggs from her suburban neighbor’s backyard, so ranching isn’t relevant.

But outside of that, the vast majority of laying hens, including those who are “pastured” are virgins.

Sooo you have "ranching" experience?

Who cares? That's not where OP gets her eggs from. Your post helps me understand how so many posters seem to lack reading comprehension in this forum these days.

OP's eggs come from suburban chickens

You honestly couldn’t even google this to make sure you weren’t saying something stupid?

Eggs are not chicken embryos unless fertilized. The eggs you are eating are not fertilized and you would for damn sure know if they were.

Does that also work for stupid idiot?

Why, yes! HTH.

I'm not a trainer, but it's going to be very difficult for a growing 13 year old to be a competitive athlete as a vegetarian. Some chicken or fish solves a lot of issues. A good steak would be best. My kids - boys - are athletes and there's no chance they could compete at their level as a vegetarian. Their caloric and protein intake is insane from an adult perspective. Adolescence alone requires a lot of nutrients. And then add heavy workouts. Almond milk and chia seeds don't do it. A vegetarian is going to be competing at a severe deficit. You can be a perfectly healthy adolescent as a mindful vegetarian that priorities other sources of protein. But I don't think you can be a competitive athlete in the teenage years as a strict vegetarian. We evolved to be omnivores for very good reasons.

My kids are vegetarians and highly competitive athletes. There are a lot of elite athletes that are vegetarian.

What sports? I don’t know why people don’t name the sport or sports.
