Any vegans here?

My knee surgery in February changed my diet completely. I am all about protein both animal and vegetable. I have almost eliminated beef because of the cost
but I am heavy into chicken and fish. Since my knee surgery I couldn't drink my alcohol anymore so that changed things a bunch. My fasting bloodwork it the best
it has ever been at 71 years of age. My weight is the lowest it has been in 25+ years. A week from today I get the other knee replaced and I expect to lose another
10-15 pounds in the process. I will stay with the common sense nutrition program of lots of vegetables and lots of protein before and after my workouts.
I have never seen a healthy vegan--------------
