    Ha! I'm only a week in, but I will tell you that I've already boosted my energy and no longer need coffee/energy drinks.

    I just posted something myself asking for recipes. If I get anything good, I'll share :smile:

    I'm thinking about trying vegetarianism again, but I'm worried about getting enough protien. Even thouh I eat fish amd chicken at the moment, I rarely make more than 70% of my protien goal. In the past I've fallen off the veggie wagon because I get anaemic :(

    How do you guys do it?

    I don't worry about such things... but to answer the source question: legumes, tofu/tempeh, non gmo soy products, nuts and seeds, etc.

    I'm vegetarian/pescatarian(I eat fish/seafood).
    Protein was an issue for me before. There is protein in everything, even veggies. I love Chia seeds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds. I do eat tuna (pescatarian) egg beaters. There's always whey protein powder, or a protein bar. I also love lentils and split peas, as well as other beans, also cottage cheese, Greek yogurt.

    Protein-wise: I eat SO many beans. I add cannelini beans (lowest fat) to my salads and soups and stir frys, make black bean mexican salads, make my own hummus for sandwiches and dips, and I make roasted chick peas for a crunchy snack.
