Thank you everyone! I appreciate all of the advice! I'm trying to put together a daily meal plan, because it's just easier for me to plan ahead and have everything ready, then I won't want to just grab something that won't be a good choice for me. I'm curious as to what you guys eat on an average day. I'll take into consideration that you probably aren't trying to lose weight. And I just really want to try this one:

Hello! I've been an overweight vegetarian for a few years now. Vegetarian longer than I've been overweight. I'm now working with a trainer on losing about 70 lbs and I'm also making the choice to become vegan. My trainer was already worried about me getting enough protein and now he will freak! He says I need 1 oz of protein per lb of body weight. That seems like a lot to me, and it seems almost impossible for me to do it without dairy. I guess I could have four protein shakes in addition to my regular meals. Is that a good idea? What would be a good meal plan for someone new to veganism, trying to lose weight, also getting enough protein? My trainer has me off of processed carbs. Thanks everyone! I can't wait to post my before and after pictures!!! I'm going to be strong and healthy in no time!!!
