[@PlantBasedDads]

Well here it is. The whole story with numbers and data to show why I am changing for now and where I am going with it. Let me know your thoughts below.

[@normalopez2856]

Joey your face and neck look a lot slimmer. You look good. Keep up the good work.

[@GriefCoachCindy]

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.

[@cece4967]

Such a helpful video! Thank you!

[@nathalierey7663]

This is absolutely the basic info (not losing critical muscle) that WFPB ignores. Starch based, at least. Thank you for sharing this. Particularly as you age.

[@coraleigh9661]

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.

[@sinnaayhynmaki]

Am I the only one who thought Joey is about 40 years old??🤯

[@letitiacipolla2765]

Yes

[@CassandraCassandra.]

You are not alone! WOW! He could seriously pass for 40/40-ish.

[@WilliamsPinch]

Yeah you are lol

[@WilliamsPinch]

But he does look great for 60

[@gracielaloughridge5054]

60? Wow, he looks much younger.

[@carolannfox1644]

All the best on your new chapter! Just remember that no part of you is “grotesque”. Be kind to yourself as you transform! We love you!

[@kirstenwarrencarrell3283]

I came on to say the same thing. Bodies are bodies and they're amazing no matter what size!

[@tsebosei1285]

3:39 you don't look 60 you look like many in their 50's

[@charlottehuddleston3310]

I can’t wait to see what you have created. I’m in the same situation as you. I’ve been eating plant based for over six years and I’m still overweight, even with eating healthy and exercise. I will be 70 in September and I wanna see a healthier me. Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I’m pretty sure I’m gonna be eating your new recipes. Hugs to you.

[@rogerfitness5534]

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!!)

[@PlantBasedDads]

If Nimai calls me, i'll switch to Vedge too!!

[@esullie]

Can you share info about training with you?

[@chrystalthornton1502]

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.

[@coraleigh9661]

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

[@nathalierey7663]

Can you take long walks?

[@maryingram3249]

Hi, you’re describing my story, too. Wishing you well on this journey!

[@suzyn9119]

That's great, joey. I had to quit some plant based food like white rice , noodles, and bread and eat more beans, red yams and squash to add more vitamins and minerals to my diet.

[@antonisanastasakis5963]

Yes, I am with you in this journey, 3 years on LFHC ans I can't see my muscle definition for my work on gym 😂

[@teachertrx1204]

This is me, Joey. I'm 5'2 60 years old and weigh 165. When I hit menopause I gained weight and I became hypothyroid. I'm so glad you're sharing this especially those numbers!

[@laurenwarren9434]

You MUST check out Dr. Stacy Sims!

[@christined2495]

I lost 22 lbs eating plant based, i am at goal weight now, and my BMI is in range …I am 72 but I have noticed I lost muscle, and was just researching about this yesterday I think your doing amazing, look great, and will lead the way for us all

[@dennysmith5284]

I'm 72 as well, and started higher protein WFPB SOS, adding organic pea protein powder, as I started working out with weights. Got buffed in short order--well worth it.

[@scienceislove2014]

​@@dennysmith5284woah...so many 72 year olds here.. great to hear that you're excited about getting healthier..

[@Healthnutpb]

You lose muscle if you're not weight training and only doing cardio regardless of diet

[@dennysmith5284]

Ye, gotta' do resistance training--muscles don't build themselves, and, much worth the effort. @@Healthnutpb

[@kathleenphillips7145]

I just turned 70, am fully plant based gluten free. I’ve never had a weight issue but do weight resistance exercises 5 days a week as well as long walks to stay fit.

[@lizannechance2934]

This was THE MOST valuable information for Vegans EVER! Thank you SO MUCH for this. I definitely will be watching your upcoming recipies. Thank you for your persistence. I’m struggling with the protein weight loss issue as well. Good luck on our journey.

[@LilithSumeria]

Absolutely! What works for one does NOT work for EVERYONE. Please don't let anyone deter you from your goal. I'm right with you. I'm so glad you're being so transparent. It's such a big help.

[@norak5767]

We are all individuals. You do what works for you. You are still vegan. You are still eating mostly whole foods. You have a specific goal and are working toward it. It's your journey you are sharing with us. Thanks for just being you!

[@slbourdon]

I wholeheartedly encourage you on this journey! Your kindness reigns through all you do!

[@createdgrowth]

Thank you! This is exactly what I need for my own health. I was told to increase my protein intake to 120g/day and lower my caloric intake. I just purchased Soy Curls, Chik'n, and Seitan last week. I need to start logging my numbers every day and weighing my food. I am looking forward to all of your recipes. They are going to be a great help to me. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your journey with us and what you are changing for your overall wellness.

[@IssaMas]

One of the things I like most about you is that you keep it real. Thank you for this video, Joey, and I'm looking forward to the new high-protein recipes. 💚

[@missieseymour6949]

Thank you for your transparency and clear, sensible approach to presenting this topic. You are an inspiration. There needs to be more conversation about weight loss and muscle gain in the plant based community. Thank you for highlighting this.

[@angelsayswhat]

I watch ALOT of plant based food videos, I mean ALOT! Mate, this was eye opening and something that ALL plant based food people need to know. Great information here, thanks for sharing!

[@judyirick8186]

Thank you for being so transparent. I remember your video when you went to 1200 calories a day - broke through the myth that all a person needs to do is go WFPB and massive weight will effortlessly drop off. I'm also an ethical vegan and looking forward to seeing how the higher protein change works out!

[@earthbybike]

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!

[@CourtneyRobinson]

Thank you so much. I’m a 53 year old menopausal woman. I’m also trying to up my protein as I start doing more strength training. Studies show as we age we absolutely need more protein. Thank you, I am looking forward to your new videos.

[@bekinddogoodeatplants]

I support! Excited to see what’s coming 😊

[@patriciasy9397]

[@jillianminor5476]

Thank you so much for doing this video I am in the same place trying to figure out how to do more protein. Can't wait to see what you have come up with.

[@amyrizzo869]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for sharing this! I am in a similar position and I am looking forward to your new recipes because it has been such a struggle.

[@andreavalenowords]

You're spot on; keep going. My BMR is similar as is my age. What an eye opener! I'm following you & Tim closely and enjoying the content...best of luck-

[@es-hs9fd]

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. :)

[@judithberiahmichelson7268]

I'd join that too! Great suggestion 🏆

[@susanfoley3018]

I look forward to hearing more about this journey and your recipes. It's all very relevant to me and my current struggle.

[@sherih9470]

Best of luck, Joey. Will be watching to see how it goes and if it may benefit me to do this. I completely understand and support your reasoning here. I know you will do great.

[@kdingo5215]

looking forward to the new receipes. In same boat as you and hoping this will give me a kick in the butt. Thanks bunches.

[@Coxfamuhlee]

Oh my gosh, this is so me! Makes complete sense. I can't wait for your recipes.

[@katiesledge1721]

Such a great , informative video. I am excited to follow and hope to add some of the protein ideas.

[@childofdestiny2811]

I love the video. I love the format. I am with you on your journey! PS, you are not grotesque. I’m looking right at you! All I see is commitment, love of family and love of life. None of that is grotesque!

[@nikkibiedenbach9066]
