I keep falling off the wagon! But I'm still trying. I have definitely cut down on meat, so I guess that's a good step in the right direction!

Sabine, you may want to do some research on your own and possibly consult a dietitian. Your own need for protein varies according to your age, activity levels, and health conditions. While you can get a perfectly adequate diet from plant sources, you may, for example, find that you need more legumes in your diet than you might have thought necessary. Other things that make life as a vegetarian, never mind vegan, interesting are travelling (you don't have your favorite cafe or your own kitchen) and living situation (you may not be able to cook exactly what you'd prefer). People from vegetarian cultures grow up with the knowledge we often have to build ourselves and live in supportive surroundings. We don't have these things, so we have to be our own advocates. Good luck!

Thank you for the link, Svaha! It's good to know I can eat a wide variety of plant foods and still get enough protein.

What are good vegetarian (preferably vegan) sources of protein? I know of almonds and legumes. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Many places also carry algae-derived DHA, which is better than flax's ALA.

Re. Jennine's post of Feb. 24: Instead of fish oil capsules, you can take flaxseed oil capsules. They are a great vegetarian source of Omega-3 fatty acids.
