I can't eat that much!?

That's based on raw data. Not everybody is the same. If you feel fine with what you are eating, then go for it provided you don't overeat or eat to capacity.

It sounds like you have a very healthy diet and lifestyle. But I hope you're not fixated on calories. It's good to know about what goes into your mouth, but counting calories in everything often leads to trouble. If you're struggling to maintain a healthy weight, consider adding some higher calorie foods to your meals, it could be as simple as adding nuts as a snack or crushed and sprinkled over your meals. If your weight is stable, just keep doing what you're doing, make sure you're eating good sized serves, keep the exercise up and get lots of sleep.

Vegetarians usually have lower calories but higher nutrients. Which is a good thing, makes for a healthy body. Means your body gets more nutrients for less work.

Tips for the vegan diet:

You need to make sure you eat pulses at least three times a week and fruits and vegetables everyday.

Have a fruit for breakfast(apart from something else of course) and a vegetable/pulses for lunch and dinner.

Make sure you include all vegetables,pulses,lentils and beans(kidney beans,chickpeas,black eyed peas,green peas and many more)

Don't eat mock meat and soybean as mock meat contains sodium and soybean is bad for health( http://rheumatic.org/soy.htm ).

Mock meat is also soy based so too much soy can be bad for health.

Actually even a little soy is bad for health.

What's wrong with soy?

Soy beans are naturally toxic to humans, but they're harmless when they go through a fermentation process, which is how we get tofu.

But soy is being used in more and more things these days.

Just look through your cabinet. You'll be surprised.

Anyway, most companies aren't putting their soy beans through this process because it takes too much time, and time = money.

Instead, they put it through a chemical process, but this rarely gets rid of the soy's toxicity completely.

Symptoms of a high soy diet are thyroid problems, breast cancer, and other complications.

People get these symptoms because the soy they eat isn't fermented.

Mock meat can never be part of a staple diet(food what you eat everyday).

You CAN have it ONCE IN A WAY.

Its a luxury and not a need.

You need to consume naturally occurring FRUITS,VEGETABLES(cauliflower,carrot, potato, beetroot, okra, eggplant, radish, turnip, cabbage, bitter gourd, spinach,capsicum(aka bell peppers)),PULSES(chickpeas,kidney beans,black eyed peas,green gram,black gram,lentils,lablab bean,moth bean,horse gram,cow pea),NUTS(cashew nuts,peanuts,walnuts,pistachios,raisins) and GRAINS.

Make something like rice and bread your staple diet.

You can have rice with vegetables for lunch and bread(I have Indian bread usually) with pulses for dinner(or you can do it whichever way you like though that's the way I do it).

You can have fruits for breakfast besides something else. You will get all vitamins and minerals from fruits,vegetables,pulses and nuts.

Also,don't fall for the myth that says vegans/vegetarians need to take multivitamin supplements.

Vegans/vegetarians don't need to take supplements as they get all their nutrients from fruits,vegetables and pulses.

Supplements are supposed to be taken by people with deficiencies so do not take them unless they have been prescribed to you by a doctor.
