I wouldn't call myself a vegan yet, I'm on my way there. It's funny, in the midst of all the protein craze, I never think about how much protein I'm getting. You're right I don't eat enough. I'm actually going to up my dairy for a while (some lowfat cottage cheese, 1 cup a day). I find it sooooooo difficult to get enough protein, stay lowfat, plus not eat awhole lot of processed carbs. It's like you have to have one and give another up, never both. So my diet, has been nothing put veggies and fruit practically. I can't be low fat, AND low carb, unless all I ate was veggies and tuna. Who can do that?? I can't, nor do I want to. I don't eat meat because of the hormon content and just the awful things they are doing to meat. And dairy forms a lot of mucous in the body. I wanted to be a raw foodist for the longest, but it's not for me. It just too extremely hard to live that way. It's already hard enough being a vegan.
