The first question people usually ask me when I tell them that I've turned into a six day a week vegan is, "How are you getting your protein?" Well, I get my protein from soy and beans. I eat tofu, soy sausages, soy ground beef. The soy substitutes really aren't bad. It's been almost two months since I went vegan, and my body has taken a drastic change. My arms have gotten more defined and my stomach has leaned up big time. And I'm still getting stronger! My weight is holding steady at around 190-195 pounds although I'm keeping the weight on because I eat like a horse! I'm not sure if I would call myself a six day a week vegan anymore though. I allow myself up to five "cheat" meals a week. I've never been chiseled in my life except when in my early childhood years when I looked like I was malnourished. If I can become lean, I think anybody can. Of course, diet is only part of the equation. Rest (which I neglect very often) and how you exercise are the other parts.
