thanks for the tips everyone! some things I had just for some reason not thought of for a while, and others are new to me. I will try Tempeh for sure.

Thanks again.

btw - how much fat is generally considered OK for a diet which is focused on weight loss? I've been successful with the weight dropping thus far, but again (thanks to fitday) am a little shocked at how much fat I seem to be consuming ... I seem to be averaging about 25 - 30 grams a day (1300 - 1500k per day). This is too much, yes / no? It seem to be "good" fat, based on its sources (grains, seeds etc) for what it's worth.
