  • For veggies, I usually get frozen mixed veggies, it’s more varied and some even have mushrooms mixed in there making them very tasty. Or I cook some tomato-based sauce.

    For protein, I mostly eat Skyr and Tofu. Eggs, nuts and lentils also have good protein content, but they have other macros as well.

    Unless you’re doing some aggressive 1000kcal deficit every day, there’s also plenty of space for “normal” meals in each day. Just do the math for the macros you need to eat for your goal. I don’t think eating only veggies + protein is a good idea long term.



  • “No, I am your father.”

    “You’re absolutely right! When Obi-Wan told me about my father’s death, he probably meant that the person he knew my father as is dead, since your personality and appearance have changed drastically since then. I’m glad we could clear up this misunderstanding!”














  • I think this is a very valid question. Sometimes the grass really is greener on the other side.

    I like it here in Germany. Laws and social safety are relatively strong. Oftentimes I see an article about some chemical common in food being a cancer risk, and then I research it and see that it is a US-centered article and that the EU already banned the chemical years ago.

    Right wing populism is strongly on the rise here though. Racism and LGBTQ-phobia will strongly depend, with smaller villages and regions in East Germany being worse on average.

    If you’re a top earner, you most likely won’t get the crazy high salaries here that you might expect from the US (even if accounted for cost of living, childcare etc).

    Bureaucracy is annoying.

    Rent can be very high depending on the region.

    Job market strongly favors German speakers. I heard the Netherlands are more open in that regard. I think this will be your biggest hurdle.
