I have recently gone vegan & I am unsure if I am getting enough calories. I never feel hungry even though I am a bit overweight which is surprising.
This is an example of what I might eat on a normal day:
Breakfast:
Maple & macadamia gluten free muesli with soy yogurt + small banana + vitamin b12 capsuleSnack:
handful of dried gogi berries or a handful of raw snow peasLunch:
Big bowl of broccoli & lentil soup with chia seeds + 1 toasted wholemeal pita bread for dippingAfternoon snack:
Peppermint tea with stevia
small piece of fruit eg: apple or a handful of fresh cherriesDinner:
2 Portobello mushrooms stuffed with quinoa, kale,sundried tomatoes, tofutti cream cheese, more mushroom & herbsI feel really good & don’t feel like I am depriving myself but I am worried about not eating enough calories. Any tips would be appreciated.
Do you think I'm consuming enough calories & eating a balanced diet?

Celiac disease – would you be worried about…?
gluten free beer - March 8, 2010
Hi,
I am just wondering if people who suffer from Celiac disease would be worried about cross contamination of bottled non-gluten free beer, in an otherwise guaranteed gluten-free restaurant?
If there is gluten beer in a restaurant that claims to be gluten-free, would you still consider it to be gluten free?

Celiac Disease – Gluten free restaurant serving Gluten Beer?
gluten free beer - March 6, 2010
Hello,
I am making a business plan in school for a cafe that is gluten free. However, my partners and I disagree on whether we should or should not serve beer with wheat in it. She says no because then we wouldn’t be gluten free.
So people with Celiac disease, would you be worried about cross contamination in a restaurant that is totally gluten free, with the exception of bottled beer?
