Teen looking for a vegan meal plan

[veggie_runner_girl]

Hey, I'm 18 and I want to become fit.
Now I'm weighting about 175 pounds and my goal is 135, but I don't know where to start.
I'm trying to exersice about 3-5 times a week but because I'm new I need some advice.
Any help would be great!

Welcome.
What kind of advice do you need?

Exercising 3-5 times a week sound like a good point to start to me.

Basically I need advice in food choices and what to avoid

[morg]

basically eat healthy vegan foods as natural as possible, try avoid fried foods, and foods with lots of added fats or sugars

That food pyramid is only a guide, some people have hardly any grains concentrating mainly on fruit vegetables nuts seeds and small amounts of grain products, others go completely raw
