I just joined FatSecret. I am primarily vegan, so no meat or dairy. This is because I believe eating animal products is killing us in large numbers. I eat mostly fruits and vegetables. I use some soy products, mainly soy milk, drink a lot of green tea and eat a tablespoon of black-strap molasses 2-3 times a day. My goal is to attempt to get all of my nutritional requirements from my diet. I want to keep track of the major nutrients in the foods I eat everyday and keep track of the calories I am burning from exercise. My main form of exercise is running. I like to run at the track because I can easily count the miles and I'm obsessive like that! I have nothing against taking a supplement but would prefer to get everything I need from food if possible. Is that a lot to ask? :)

I am interested to watch your diary to see what you are eating to get your nutritional requirements. I am not vegan - but am interested in learning more about the types of foods one would eat if they were vegan!

Hi Yacki, thanks for the comment! I am still learning my way around the site. I'm afraid my diet may be very boring, I tend to eat the same stuff all the time. You sound a lot like me accept I have two girls. I was around 175 after my second daughter. I gradually lost weight and got stuck around 140. Being vegan really works for my body, but I know everyone is different. I don't know if I can get the nutrition right, but all my blood work is normal so at least its not killing me :)
