How do you feel about the new [ish] MyPlate?
Just curious. I was looking for the vegetarian food pyramid today and that innane thing popped up. For the life of me, I can’t figure out how this is considered "moving in the right direction." Thoughts?
How is it Not moving in the right direction?
It is simply 1/4 protien. It does NOT have to be meat, but ANY protien source. 1/4 carbs. Of course whole or multigrian are best sources and 1/2 your plate should be fruit and veggies?
Serving sizes are still the same recomended amount, this is MUCH easier than the pyramid.

how can you possibly eat everything the food pyramid says without having too many carbs?
im a teenage girl and im not trying to LOOSe weight or anything, just balance out my diet however i dont want to get fat and i was wondering how can i possibly eat 7 grains (i mostly only eat whole grain stuff), 3 fruits, 3 veggies, 3 legumes/soy products (vegetarian), and 3 dairy a day (fats or usually low carb) without having too many carbs? can you givee mw like an example?
You can’t. You’re obviously smarter than the average bear. The current recommendations are a guideline for obesity and diabetes. I’m glad you recognize that. Eat a more balanced diet, especially watch the processed grains in your diet. They really don’t do much for you….nutrition wise.
Robert “Sugar: Bitter Truth” Lustig rejects food pyramid but does not endorse low-carb diet

The American Heart Association now recommends that you keep added sugars to less than 5% of your calorie intake. That’s about 25 grams or 6 teaspoons per day for an average-sized adult.

was this breakfast healthy as my start for a balanced vegetarian diet?
I’m giving up the meat slowly so i am trying a few recipes every week until i gather lots of healthy balanced groups for a whole day and then start being a real vegetarian, so i’m starting with breakfast after seeing the food pyramid i’m supposed to get milk or eggs so i made this omlette by whisking 2 eggs with salt and pepper and then i fried a small onion and a small green bell pepper until the onions starting browning just a lil bit then i got it out and spread it on the omlette and ate it with bread but not too much bread, is this breakfast healthy to add to my vegetarian menu? i know it’s healthy but is it healthy for being a vegetarian because that’s a whole new lifestyle im talking about
i fried the eggs with butter and i ate a few apricots and i’ll get grapes and apples , is low-fat yogurt good? i hate drinking milk :\
If you don’t like milk, you might like soymilk. It has a VERY different taste from milk. I don’t much care for milk either, but I absolutely adore soymilk. You can buy it in slightly smaller cartons if you’re just looking to try. SILK soymilk is my personal favorite, but Eight Continent is pretty good too. They come in all sorts of flavors. Chocolate, vanilla…I reccomend regular, but that’s just me.
Otherwise, low-fat or fat-free yogurt is an excellent option. I love yogurt! And I discovered this marvelous thing called Greek Yogurt. I’m a vegetarian too, so I’m always looking for new sources of protein. The Chobani Greek yogurt that I get has 14 grams of protein in a single container. And they are delicious!
Sorry to rant on you. I know you were just asking a simple question. Haha…just wanted to spread some hopefully helpful advice.
