    How so? Also, would it make one crave healthier lower calorie things more? I notice when I’m hungry I will eat raw sprouts that I grow from melon seeds and sometimes bean sprouts.

    Idk if this context helps: I’m on medicine that makes me fat and I get really miserable if I don’t meet enough protein and carbs needs. I’m also one of those meat eaters who has hangups about eating meat and I want to start transitioning to non meat protein because of that. I’m very lucky to be able to eat all of the things people listed.

      Generally, any new restrictive diet will cut down the amount of processed food you are eating so the lower protein density of, say, lentils is offset by no longer eating processed meats and things to an extent.
