      Thank you for laying this out. I feel like a lot of WFPB doctors tell us how much protein we need to survive. I want to know how much protein I need to thrive as I age. This is the first time anyone on the channels I followed laid out the struggle of getting enough protein for those of us in our 50s/60s/70s. And thanks for showing us how we can address it for ourselves.

      I have found that eating grains whole allows me to eat less calories because they are a lot more filling. I cook 3 or 4 cups of oat groats for the week (I’m hungrier in winter), I use bulgur, spelt or sorghum instead of rice. I Add them into soups too. I do eat quinua everyday too, but it’s not as filling.

    Congrats Joey. I am a bodybuilder , I am wfpb, and train folks. You are are on the right track. Many wfpb folks don’t understand the critical protein fact , ie it protects your muscles as well as grows them. I do use a very clean protein powder (vedge is good) to get to my 200g/day. I weigh 225 at about 12-15% body fat. Kudos for making this video and committing to achieving your goals FOR YOU. (And I am 60 too!!)

    As a very short, elderly woman, I'm in the same boat as you with a BMR of about 1100 calories per day and a much worse percentage of body fat. Add to that fibromyalgia which makes working out excruciating at times. My diet has been all over the place but keto/carnivore were disastrous for me so I'm now going plant based and am hopeful. Looking forward to seeing what recipes you come up with for us oldies. Thanks.

      As a senior female with FM and 5 years WPB, I’m 73 lbs less. I’m also hypothyroid. I have learned that Dr McDougall and Naturopathic practitioners like the TSH to be around 2 -2.5, when others allow it to be around 4. Thyroid really slows your metabolism

    I'm right there with you Joey! Over 60, WFPB, healthier than my peers (and those younger), but down to the last 15 lbs to lose and only losing 1lb or less than 1 lb a month and working out with a trainer. Totally stumped as well. Thanks for looking for answers. It's fact that , that as we grow older our protien needs go up. Can't wait for next weeks video!

    Hey, Joey, I am with you all the way! Since first watching your video on August 29 2023 I’ve lost 44 pounds but in the last month hardly any weight. That is ok as my body adjusts. I am a 79 year old woman who averages around 30 grams of protein a day. I can’t wait for you coming videos showing me how to improve my protein intake. I think that it is important for me to add that I’m following your lead after consulting with my doctor who has so far approved my course of action. Thank you, Joey. You have shown me how to make healthy changes to the way I eat. I’m very grateful. Starch Solution all the way!

  • @emilygainor7228
    @emilygainor7228 4 місяці тому +8

    I don’t usually comment but saw your video and felt the need to say thank you for being so honest about the protein issue! I am currently 48 and have been Whole Food Plant Base for over 4years now. It has Changed my life! I was able to reverse my Lupus because of my diet change and will never go back! Unfortunately, all the information out there is so confusing and never seems to address the protein issue. I don’t want to bore you with the details about my WFPB journey but want to mention that I did lose a lot of weight when I started but I think I was losing muscle as well. About 2 years into being WFPB I became weak, started being exhausted all the time, noticed hair loss and started gaining the weight that I lost(not what I wanted to happen). I met with a nutritionist/trainer found out my protein was too low and so were my calories. Looking at my height and the goal weight that I want to be at I have to take in about 120-130g of protein and taken in about 1300 cal. I need to also do less cardio and more weight training to increase my metabolism (due to the muscle I have lost). I am allergic to soy (which is tough being WFPB) so I have been supplementing with pea protein called “Naked Pea”. The only ingredient is peas but it has leucine, which I have learned is an important amino acid for muscle gain. One serving has 27g protein and 120calories. I put it in everything and have been able to meet my protein goals. I have been feeling so much better! I have noticed changes in my body and I am on my way to meeting my goals! I am stronger, have more energy, my hair is growing back and still Lupus free! Protein is important but you just need to pay more attention to it being WFPB. It can be done!😉 I wish more people addressed the protein in Plant base diets to meet everyone’s goals.
    Thank you again for addressing the protein issue and I look forward to seeing you meet your goals. Stay strong!💪

    I’m new to this channel. It was a pleasure to see another senior vegan that’s focused on eating more protein. I’m 57 years old and definitely noted the difference in wanting more whole food plant based protein after menopause that started at 51. I love tempeh, tofu, nuts and beans daily along with all the other wonderful plant based foods of course. Working out at the gym and swimming always helps too. Stay strong Joey. I appreciate your honesty. Would be nice to see you start an online high protein group for vegan seniors. :)

    Very important video thank you for being vulnerable and sharing what you’ve learned. I’ll be 70 next year. I am 5‘5“ tall 120 pounds. I don’t need to lose weight but I am losing muscle and have been diagnosed with advanced osteoarthritis and both my knees. I struggled so hard getting enough protein in my diet. I use a ton of Chia seeds, I drink about a cup of soy milk, a day in my tea and fresh edamame couple times a week. I hate tofu so that is out for me. I ended up adding wild caught salmon once a week which was hard for me since I’ve been vegan for 20+ years. I was pretty freaked out about the osteoarthritis. I’m so glad to hear you’re talking about this… Thank you so much!❤

    Yay! Thank you so much. I just signed up with a trainer 4 weeks ago and I'm starting Simon Hill's Challenge 2/1. The first week is focusing on protein. He is plant based, but focuses on more protein. Like you, I have trouble getting enough protein on a whole food plant based diet and trying to stay in a calorie deficit. I have resorted to plant based protein shakes. I will be thrilled to learn some new recipes.

      How did you get the tests done like your voz 2 to do the Simon Hill challenge. I wanted to do it, but don’t have the numbers to do the assessment

    • @karensturm

      I already had the labs. My trainer had the grip strength gadget. For Vo2 max I used my heart rate monitor. I know it isn’t that accurate but will save getting the professional Test done after the 12 weeks. The Polar H10 is great for the Zone training.

    I love this content as I am in peri menopause and was told to increase my protein to build and sustain muscle mass for my older years. I have had to make and incorporate my protein sources so I don't go too high in calories or fat! This is perfect timeing and content for me right now. Thank you, Joey!
    I have been watching you silently for years and will continue whether you eat like me or not, I love your family! ❤

    Hi Joey, thanks for sharing this! I too am having this issue on a whole foods plant based diet. I'm also in my 60's. I stumbled on a channel Sinmett Nutrition, he's a Vegan body builder on a whole foods plant based diet. You may have already seen his channel but in the off chance you haven't just thought I'd share it. I've been learning a lot since watching him. Good luck on your journey, I have no doubt things will improve, already looks as though they are!!
