We have been 100% successful in keeping Ryan's meals Vegan. It has been a lot of fun preparing his meals and making them so that he gets enough protein and of course, that his calorie intake is above 4,000 calories (as of now). He tells me that is likes the meals and he never feels "deprived". Last night we went to the Diamond Backs Baseball Game with the girls and before we left the house Ryan ate a bowl of brown rice with tempeh, edamames, peas and corn with Vega EFA Oil drizzled over it. He also had a Sunwarrior Protein drink and then we were off to the game. At the game he wasn't hungry and didn't feel the need to snack. When we got in the truck I had a 2 cups of fresh strawberries for him 1 cup of almonds and a Sunwarrior Protein Drink. If you take the time to prepare your food ahead of time, then there is no room for failing on your diet. Stick with it and be consistent.

I have to be honest, the tempeh made me nervous. I wasn't sure if I was pushing Ryan with adding it sense he hasn't had it before. And sense the bowl was full of rice and veggies... I just wasn't sure what his reaction was going to be of it. But to my surprise, Ryan really liked it. He said to me "This is really good. I like this one Babe." :) NICE!!! Tempeh is so high in protein and all around super nutritious, so this is very good!!
