This is probably why I normally have better losses on red days than EE. Typically I'd have chilli with rice and no other vegetables. The chilli would have some veg in it but it's mostly mince and beans so the veg would be far less than a third of the meal. Whereas on a red day I'd always have a large portion of veg with my meat and HEXB of potatoes.
This also means that for a fry up breakfast I'll have to have a lot of mushrooms and tomatoes to balance out the sausage, eggs, bacon, beans and toast.
However, so many people have done very well on EE the old way, so if it's working for you there's no point in changing. At least now you know what you can do to boost things if your losses slow down.
