It is so important to put as much information as possible in this diet and exercise calendars. This gives me a "paper trail" in the event that I need to make a course correction.
Protein and Fiber. Two things I figure out real quick 1) My diet was severely deficient in Protein, 2) My diet was lacking in fiber. I follow a vegan diet, so the Protein, while I was surprised at how great the delta was I expected this to be low. However, I assumed the my fiber would take care of itself. Not so. Nutritionist recommend 14 grams of fiber for ever 1000 calories consumed. My Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) is around 3600. That means I should be hitting about 50+ grams of fiber per day. I was around 30. I've had to make some corrections.
My weight has stayed at 200 since I began. It first glance it might appear to be a plateau or even lack of motivation. What is happening is that I am focusing on getting my diet--my fueling process--in order, while continuing a similar exercise routine.
Finally, water and sleep are seriously underrated. I've found these to be key in ensuring that I have the necessary energy level throughout the day and most importantly, during my workouts.

I did it! 3600 calories. That is a lot of eating. My goal is between 3300 and 3600.
My nutrient ratio is 55% carbs, 35% protein, and 15% fat. This is how today stacks up:
55% carbs today-57%, 35% protein today-23%, and 15% fat today-20%.
I need to work on the fat and the protein, but I feel like I am on the right track.

Vegan high protein seems like an oxymoron. That is my challenge. I want to
1) add 5 to 7 lbs of muscle over then next year
2) drop my body fat from 18% to 10% (+/- 2%)
This week I was on the road for 4 days. Restaurants are good about putting together a vegan meal. However, it is still a challenge with late meals (I don't like to eat after 6PM. 5 hours before I sleep.) I was able to work out on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Friday.
