Tried to get her to knock pepsi on the head but there are some vices people have to keep I know what you and ElDude mean about her "not being a vegan cause of eating pet chicken eggs", but she chooses that lifestyle more out of morale reasons, than health reasons.

    Her macro splits arent far off those numbers you got there, except for the fat ratio which is a bit down, hence why ive recommended she start taking some Seven Seas Omega 3 capsules to boost her fat levels along with some iron tablets, as low iron is a common factor in veggie/vegan diets. Though i know Tofu does have some high levels of iron in it.
    Fish oil is good supplement to have as well as good daily vitamin. I struggle with low iron and I am not a vegan. I was taking a prenatal vit but that was too much iron so I had to stop. :/

    I think the plan you put together is solid ESP since she isn't eating meat. Well done!

    Ps: other vegans also use pea protein.
