E,
An easy adjustment with zero sacfifice.
Dump the cottage cheese and greek yogurt (animal).
Make pea-isolate pudding using Almond Milk to dilute. Wisk to consistency, add your fruit or agave necture.
Much healthier, will cost probably less, and has zero fat!

Mack, i have reduced my meat consumption quite a bit over this past year, simply from necessity as I am back in grad school. I only have 2 meat based meals a day of lean chicken breast with steamed vegetables and sweet potato, and my other meals consist of 1 cup cottage cheese or greek yogurt, 3 whole eggs, and 1 cup berry blend. I would say I eat 50/50 vegetarian and meat meals now. Perhaps adding vegan meals as you recommended would be the next step in my dietary evolution!
I find this really interesting, as I'm not really a bodybuilder per say. I've never used hormones before and train mainly for sports performance and just overall health. My family has had a history of diabetes, high blood pressure, and even cancer, so health is very important to me! I've used low carb based diets for most of my training life, as it's been the most effective way for me to maintain a lean physique. However, I think given my performance based goals, a higher carb diet would give me much more energy. I just bought some ezekiel genesis bread this morning and will start adding two slices a day to my breakfast and see how that goes.
Thanks again!
