If you end up putting together a well balanced plan for yourself adequate in those nutrients, maybe you'll want to share with the board what you put together for yourself

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.
