  1. Thanks so much for your replies and advice, i really appreciate it I'll look at all those links you guys posted, thank you !! Yes i agree I think that giving up dairy is key, I find it addictive which is never a good sign, and I think it cause a lot of digestive problems for me. I suppose my main concern is that I am already lean, I'm not looking to loose weight, the diet I eat now keeps me lean and I'm worried changing this will have a negative effect, but I suppose there is only one way to find out and thats trial and error. I will keep my vegetable intake as high as possible and slowly ad fruits and grains and see how i react to these. Thanks again guys !!
  2. Hi Everyone, I'm new to this website and am considering becoming a vegan again. I was a vegetarian then a vegan for most of my life, then approx 4 years ago I started to eat fish and then chicken 2 years ago. During the past 4 years I managed to get very lean, eating a diet of mostly vegetables, protein (chicken, fish and low fat dairy) and getting all of my carbs from veggies. I rarely eat grains or fruit. I train 6 days a week. I have just read Dr. Joel Furhams book Eat to Live and it has made be want to adopt my vegan diet back. However I am terrified that I will gain weight as it seems to be so carb heavy compared to how i eat now. The main difference for me will be removing chicken, fish and dairy from my diet and the adding of fruit and grains such as oats and rice in moderation. Dr. Furhams diet is heavily plant based, which wont be a great change for me, as my current diet is heavily plant based now, most of my meals are 70% vegetable, 30% Protein but I do avoid fruit. My concern about me gaining weight on a vegan diet lead me to this website....Its been such a pleasant relief to find so many vegan bodybuilders out there. I am wondering if anyone can offer me any advice on the transition from my current high protein/lo grain (NOT LO CARB - i eat a great amount of cards through my veggies) diet. I believe I will be much happier eating a vegan diet again as these are my preferred foods, and I have had digestion problems for the first time in my life since I added fish/protein and dairy to my diet. I believe removing these foods will resolved my digestion issues. I'm just terrified that I will loose my body composition and gain fat and lose muscle. Any advice will be much appreciated. Many Thanks
