  • I'm starting to encounter the same problems as above. Lost 4kg so far tracking with myfitnesspal after being stuck at 93kg but 0.5kg of that is lean mass if my scales are to be believed. Problem is my girlfriend is vegan and I try to only buy what I consider to be ethical meat/dairy, so I want to find something like 40g extra protein a day compared to what I'm eating now.

    Apart from stacks of eggs, what's a good supplement? Looking at protein cookies and things but they can be kind of expensive.

  • Why not go for some protein powder? Organic or vegan varieties exist.

  • pole and line caught tuna - includes tesco basics, weirdly. 64p per can.
    bulk powders protein shakes are from grass fed cows
    GOMAD (gallon of milk a day)

    ethical and expensive are both subjective, so those suggestions might be completely off point

  • Black beans, or other beans. Excellent source of protein.

    I'm currently trying low/no meat, minimal dairy and mainly plant based as haven't had success with other ways of eating. Based on the "eat fruit/veg when you want till your full" idea.

    Will report back in a month to see if it does the trick (initially seems to be working)
