Vegan Diet Update — day 10

It has been 10 days since I adopted a vegan diet and it has been around 40 days since I last ate meat. Although, meat intake was reduced substantially beginning November of last year. This vegan way of eating is going well. The only thing to complain about his lack of meat and dairy in my diet! The dietary changes that have occurred from adopting this diet are as follows: no meat, no dairy, increase of fruits, vegetables and tofu.The only physical change that has occurred so far is the loss of libido, which started perhaps in January. This can be attributed to either the lack of meat or an increase of soy protein in my diet. Diets high in meat and garlic have been shown to increase levels of testosterone while diets high in soy protein increase levels of estrogen. So maybe a vegan diet will create a girly man of me.
Actually, an interesting tip I learned regarding desert survival is to never trust a legume. They accumulate metals and produce toxins. This principle holds true with soybeans as well, since they too are a legume. Therefore I wish to eliminate soy products from my diet and instead further increase the amount of fruits and vegetables in my diet, which I am beginning to prefer anyway (for the first time in my life!). One step at a time, however.
Yesterday I accidentally ate a health bar that contains whey protein isolate as listed in the ingredients. Technically, that no longer qualified me as a vegan for that day. Oh well. So i ate another bar of the same. :)
