Hey
Past history is that I'm a lifelong vegetarian who was vegan on and off many years ago. I'm now breastfeeding 4th child and re-joined SW at 6 weeks postnatal. Baby is having tummy troubles so I'm trying to eliminate dairy in my diet for a few weeks to see if it helps but.....
I can't stand vegan milk/cheese alternatives. I like tofu, and dairy free yogurt/dessert but that's about it and they're not HE's. I'm concerned about how on earth to consume the 4 HE A's I'm supposed to be eating and get enough calcium. If I take a calcium supplement (and eat plenty of green veg etc) can I just not have the HE's? or should I replace them with B's?
Does anyone have any experience of this?
