Guest guest Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 Hi, I'm Lynn. I've been doing this program for a long time (4yrs? 5yrs?). I am a single mom with 3 school age children that I homeschool. They do the program with me. To offset my burgeoning food bill, I've started eating more vegetarian. I have some questions about how to count protein in some foods: Beans - can I count them as protein AND a brown? Eggs - do egg whites have less protein than the entire egg? Ezekiel bread - Does anyone here eat this? It is a high protein bread with lentils and soybeans in it. It is 4 g of protein per slice. Can I count any of this as my protein? Thank you for helping me. I think my food may have slipped a little because I am confused about these things. Also, does this group enjoy sharing recipes? Thank you so much. -Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 I just wanted to clarify the egg question. OK, I always thought that the egg whites contained all the protein in the egg. Do I have to eat the entire egg - yolk and all - to get all 6g of protein? Thanks again. -Lynnnewsong02000 <newsong02000 wrote: Hi, I'm Lynn.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Lynn, I just made my veggy lunches for the week. It's amazing to me that for $6.25 I have 6 meals for the week, balanced in protein and browns. If I go out for one meal it's at least $7-10. I really like making my food.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Hi, Bob, May I ask what you made for your veggy lunches? I could use some new ideas. And, by the way, if I eat a bowl of pinto beans (1 1/2 c.) and salsa for lunch, can I count the beans as my protein and a brown? I am afraid that if I ate a brown with that then I would go into carb overload. Thanks for the help. -Lynn Bob <yogabob7 wrote: Lynn,I just made my veggy lunches for the week.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Lynn, you can't count the beans as both a protein and a brown. So if the amount of beans you are eating is the amount you need for your protein, you'd either have to add more beans for your brown, or another brown.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 That probably wouldn't be enough for me. When I use bread as a brown, I usually have 2 slices, and if I have brown rice, I have 2/3 cup or more. I very seldom use beans as my primary protein source. I usually add some cheese or tofu or TVP, some kind of denser protein source. However, I am not a vegetarian, I am just someone who eats some meat free meals. Someone who eats a vegetarian diet all the time can probably tell you better. Allison Lynn Kahl Feb 26, 2007 7:24 AM Re: Re: How to count beans, eggs and protein bread Thank you, Allison.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Lynn, What I'm having for lunch this week is a small spinach salad, wild brown rice, Lentils, & garbano beans.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Hi Lynn, I suggest you experiment to see what your body needs for your meal to last 5-6 hours. There is no set answer or formula, there's only what works for you and your body. When I started this program, I focused a lot on getting the right amount of protein, and the browns were an afterthought. Somewhere along step 7 I really tuned in to how much better my body feels when I get enough browns: more than what I had been eating. I say this by way of encouraging you to not be stingy with your browns. :-) I'm interested to know what you mean by "carb overload." Are you saying your body reacts a certain way if you have "too many" complex carbohydrates?

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Hi, Sharon, Thank you for your reply. I think I'll have to experiment also with how much brown I need. What I meant by carb overload was that overly full, uncomfortable, drowsy feeling associated with eating too much - especially carbs. But, I ate a slice of Ezekiel bread with my almost 2c. of white bean salad for supper, and realized I didn't have that feeling. I actually felt pretty good! I also ate some broccoli with that. It was a lot of food, but I didn't feel stuffed. I think I might be getting the hang of doing the program vegetarian.
