Out of curiosity, how do you get 150g/day of full proteins?

For instance, eating lentils, which is one of the most proteinated vegetable, bring 18g of proteins per 100g, along with 40g of carbs. You also have to eat a comparable amount of cereal to get a full protein chain.

Given that amount of proteins you mention, this requires eating a very large volume of food (cereals and graminacae swell with water during cooking).

I always wondered how vegetarians could reach a highly proteinic diet as a result!

Tofu, 100% peanut butter with no added oil or additive, skyr yogurt (10g of proteins for 100g for around 50kcal !), there are a lot of options What's hard is not protein intake but to moderate carbs intake in my opinion

I’ve eaten 124g of protein so far today, no meat no protein powder.

I wish I could tell you one food, but it’s not primarily from 1 source.

Egg whites, chickpea salad, Greek yogurt - lots of stuff has protein in it.

On the flip side, I’ve never understood how meat eaters can hit their protein goals without frequently exceeding 50-100g fat per day.

Ok, so mainly animal products, but not meat. Regarding fat, lean meat cuts are easy to come by.

For vegetarians it's much easier, they just go for animal derived products (eggs and milk based), so it's a bit bullshit if you ask me.

For vegans it's extremely hard, a lot of them that I know are proper skinny fat. Rarely overweight (or just a little bit) but with a terrible body composition.
