vegetarian cutting - effective diet?
i pulled the following diet off of an old thread, and was wondering if anyone has some tips on how to increase calorie intake up to 2200-2500 range, but keep it appropriate for cutting while maintaining high levels of protein intake.
--
veggies:
1/2 c asparagus
1/2 c broccoli
1/2 c bok choi
1/2 c napa cabbage
1/2 c collards
1/2 c mushrooms
grains:
1 T rice protein powder
nuts/seeds/fats:
1 brazil nut (for selenium)
4 walnuts (for EFAs)
3/4 T ground flaxseed (for EFAs)
1 oz sunflower seeds (about 2 T, for vitamin E and EFAs)
dairy/egg:
1/2 c cottage cheese nonfat
1/2 c nonfat mozzarella
5 large egg whites
legumes:
1/2 package mori nu silken lite extra firm tofu
1/2 c black beans
1/2 c kidney beans
4 oz soy protein isolate
Totals:
1642 calories
212 g protein
57 g fat (9 g saturated)
97 g carbohydrate (39 g fiber, 14 g sugar, 44g starch)
overall:
48% protein
29% fat
23% carbohydrate (this total is a little bit deceptive because much of the carbohydrate fraction is fiber).

You can up the cals by eating more eggs, cottage cheese, nuts, legumes, and beans. That would increase the protein, carbs, and FAT...I think it would increase the fat a bit much so to combat that you could add egg whites inctead of whole eggs and go easy on the nuts...maybe increase the cottage cheese too.
Searching for the right balance...

I would also take something like Aminogen if you are trying to get all of your protein intake from plant/vegetable sources...
I train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.
