[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and thanks for all the input. I should have provided more context but didn’t want to get in the weeds. I’m an omnivore but I’ve long considered veganism for environmental reasons. I can’t see how to reconcile veganism with my doctor’s recommendation to get more lean protein and my bones are at risk. I may try to find a middle ground, eating more tofu, beans, quinoa, nuts, whole grains, eggs, and seafood.[/quote] If calories are a concern, I found I could eat more, at lower calories and carbs, by focusing on beef, chicken, fish and eggs. Nuts, beans and grains come with a lot of starch and the protein is not as high quality. I'd focus on resolving the health concerns, rebuilding bone and muscle is not that easy as we age, so I'd maximize your chances. [/quote]
