Answer 2

If you are a sedentary adult, take your body weight (lbs) and multiply it by 0.36, that should tell you aproximately how many grams of protein you need daily. If you are active, multiply BW by 0.4-0.6. If you are trying to build muscle, multiply BW by 0.6-0.9.

Here are some vegetarian foods that contain good amounts of protein. Make sure you eat a variety, so you insure that you get all 9 of the essential amino acids.

1 cup kidney beans………………………………..15 g

1 cup lentils…………………………………………..18 g

½ cup tofu……………………………………………14 g

1 cup soymilk (Silk)………………………………..6 g

1 veggie hot dog (Yves Veggie Dogs)……… 16 g

1 veggie burger (Boca burger)….................13 g

2 T peanut butter……………………………………9 g

¼ cup walnuts…………………………….............4 g

1 slice whole wheat bread………………… ……..3 g

1 cup oatmeal…………………………………………6 g

1 cup cooked brown rice…………………………..9 g

1 cup quinoa………………………………………….21g

I'm a vegetarian too and its so irritating sometimes trying to stay veg and obtaining essential nutrients cause I'm also anemic but  I stick to a lot of Indian foods cause a lot of them are vegetarian but have more of the vitamins and nutrients we need over lots of other vegetarian foods and meals out there...

What's your problem with meat DUDE!!!!!

A lion wouldn't give a rat's a$$ if you were made of meat when he's eating you, and most of them are pretty strong and get lots of protein.
