I agree!

Thanks for the replies everyone... I will check out that link. I feel more energy then I ever have in my life! I went from needing like 12 hours sleep per night to 5 hours sleep per night. I went from being tired and lazy all day, to going to the gym and running. I love being a vegan

I recently became a strict vegan (like 2 months), and now I am moving towards raw/whole/organic side. Here is what I eat daily: - Lots of veggies (carrots, brocolli, tomatoes, lettuce, etc) - Lots of fruits (bananas, apples, peaches, strawberries, etc) - 2-3 small pieces of whole wheat bread - 6-8 bottles of pure clean water I refuse to take protein powders, dirty supplements, canned foods, or any of that stuff. I am happy with where I am at. People keep warning me that by doing this diet I am going to miss out on calcium, protein, and other vitamins - WHAT DO YOU THINK IS ANYTHING MISSING?

Thanks so much for the response. My issue is I want to stay away from all the stuff you mentioned I stick to whole, raw, & organic only - No supplements, no canned stuff, no refried beans, chips, dip - none of that stuff. I should've been more clear when asking the question. What's the best source of protein & calcium that is whole, raw, & organic only? Thanks.

I am new to the vegan lifestyle and am loving it already... Two things concern me. 1. Protein What is the largest source of protein that I can take daily? 2. Calcium I don't want my bones to become weak - what do you suggest for this? I try to stick to raw, organic, and whole foods - please keep that in mind when answering protein/calcium questions above. I don't really take supplments, I am sticking to a natural lifestyle. Thanks.
