I had my surgery about 5 months ago and am interested in being vegetarian. We’ve been doing Hello Fresh and I’m preferring the vegetarian meals most of the time and all meat besides steak doesn’t feel very pleasant to eat.
I know ethically it’s better to be vegan but I think it will be too difficult with my current dietary restrictions.
I have to get at least 60 g of protein a day and I only have room for about 2-3 oz of food per meal (I eat 3 meals a day). Does this seem doable as a vegetarian? I’m going to talk about it with my doctor, but it feels like it would be. I might need to add a protein shake or 2 into the routine.
Have you ever heard of the site Cronometer?
I think I have when I was doing Keto back in the day but not sure if I’m thinking of the same thing.
It's a good tool for food nutrition. Lists the generalized values for food as well as specific name brans. I usually Google lists for foods that are high in whatever nutrient I'm looking for and then use Cronometer to see how it can fit into a diet.
