I'm one who would disagree. For me switching from a high protein diet to veganism was easy once I established a routine after a few weeks. The first few weeks required some thought as to how I should go about it because I didn't have any formal instructions. Sure there are books with recipes but I really dislike following recipes.

What did I do before switching? I had tried the Paleo diet and then decided to try the blood type diet. Having type O blood called for eating limited amounts of animal protein.

Why was switching over easy? It was easy because I derive a great deal of enjoyment/pleasure from eating healthy whole foods. I like fresh fruit, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts and seeds etc. And I don't require lots of spices. I mainly use fresh garlic, fresh onion and turmeric powder. (No more olive oil; I use nuts instead.)
