    It was extremely difficult to follow the Paleo diet as a vegan (for me). As it eliminates grains (including seed-like grains like quinoa), beans, and legumes. I didn't have any protein sources left! And yes, there is protein in everything but for someone like myself who lives an extremely active lifestyle, I loss strength. So I modified it to a "Vegan protein with Paleo carbs & fat". It was much more successful for me that way even though it was only 75% Paleo. I didn't lose my muscle while I got the benefits of the abundant, unprocessed fruits and veg.
