[quote=Anonymous]Ok. If you are vegan, what protein sources do you use?  The paleo people hate soy but I kind of think you might up it a bit:  the usual goal is .5-1 gram of protein per lb of lean body weight.

I lost bunches of weight, gained some back and then lost it and more:  one of the most helpful things to me was some sort of exercise. At first I walked/ran/limped on a treadmill and then added a light weight routine. Then I joined a gym and added first machines like nautilus and then free weights when I had the muscle to do so. That really helped because I saw results a lot sooner: I'm thinner at my current weight of 128 than I was as a teen at 120 and I'm in my 50's!  And yes, I do know this because I sew my own clothes and am still using some of the same patterns.

Try roasting your veggies with olive oil and garlic, too. It's really yummy. And use olive or nut oils, not canola or corn of such.

Good luck!  I couldn't do vegan to save my soul, but lots of people feel that way about paleo too. [/quote]
