What is a nutritional, consistent daily meal plan I can use to transition to a vegan lifestyle?
i am looking to adopt a vegan lifestyle, among other things. i believe it would be beneficial for me to develop a single, daily meal plan that i can use every day. to clarify, i wish to eat the same meals every day. i hope this will allow me to become more sensitive to the needs of my body and adjust my diet accordingly. does anyone have any suggestions, either for individual meal ideas, a whole days plan, or way to investigate this goal further?
I am vegetarian for 19 years.
I cook beans, chick peas, peas, lentils at home, as the tin beans, and other ready meal are junk. They are full of protein, a handful is like a beef in protein.

Also brow rice, brow floor.
Soak the beans, peas or chick peas overnight. Than wash it. Cook for 15 min in pressure cooker.
Lentils you can cook straigt up for 15 min.
Brown rice: Wash it, cover in water, let boil in the closed pressure cooker. When it makes noisy, turn down the heat to very low and let it cook for 40min.

My child is vegetarian by birth, she is the tallest and stronger of her class, she is 10.
If u don’t cook at home, you will lack protein, if u eat refined food, you will get fat.
We don’t need soya in our diet.
luke, don’t go to the dark side…

You said vegan lifestyle but you only talked about diet so I am guessing maybe you aren’t aware of what veganism actually is:
"The word ‘veganism’ denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to end the idea of animals as property and exclude all forms of intentional exploitation of, use of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing, research or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, including people and the environment.
In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals."
This should give you the info to help start off veganism a lot easier:
Here is a list of animal ingredients to avoid:

More things to avoid:
Animals as clothes:
Leather, skins, furs, wool, silk, down, feathers…
Animals as entertainment:
Circuses, rodeos, zoos, aquariums, animal fights, animal races, hunting…
Companies that DO NOT test on animals(however CHECK INGREDIENTS they only verify testing not ingredients):

Vegan products:
http://www.veganstore.com/ (I know them well and they aren’t doing as well in this economy but they are a great source for awesome hard to find stuff and they are very friendly and giving even if they really don’t have much if anything to give)
