Hi! I'm new, too, and newly vegan (my whole family) thanks to the Engine 2 Diet. So easy!! weight is FALLING off of me. I've been trying to lose weight for a couple of years w/ little or slow success, some illnesses caused by an attempt at paleo (stupid...), a vegetarian recovery period, and now vegan as I eliminate the rest of animal products from my diet. I don't drink, tho.
Good luck! There are a lot of fat-free vegan resources out there: Happy Herbivore (who has weekly 1200 cal menu plans), Post Punk Kitchen (who has a book Appetite for Reduction (plus a couple non-diet books), Fat Free Vegan Kitchen website, Vegan Dad, Unethical Vegan, just to name a few. A lot of vegan athletes have websites and blogs, too.
