I am also a vegetarian and I think that it is important that you increase your protein intake, but I was also noticing that your caloric intake is rather low; so if you are training, you may want to bring that up a bit or your body will remain sluggish. It looks to me like this is about 1200 calories (of course I don't know all your portion sizes) and you should probably get between 1600 and 1800 a day (depending on your weight/height/age/goals etc).

As far as protein goes, I do not agree with the theory that you should take in 1g/lb; unless you are a bodybuilder. Those levels are excessive for the average person just staying fit. I weight train at a moderate level and consume about 90-100 g protein per day. If you can stomach egg whites, they are a very good sourse of protein. Personally I don't eat eggs, so my protein mainly comes from soy products (ground soy, veggie burgers), beans, whole grain pastas and rice, protein shakes, and some protein bars (try to find ones low in sugar, with at least 18 grams of protein). You should also avoid eating things with a high glycemic content in the evening (fruits, certain vegetables and anything with sugar). If you add a protein to your 2:00 meal, it will help stave off fatigue as well. Hope this helps

thanks fitmonkey! I enjoy eating the protein that you say you eat, so I'll incorporate those. I've added a protein bar the last few days, (low cal/fat, 12 g protein) and I've felt much better. But I'm also going to Cumberland lake this weekend, so I'm excited anyway. Will have to test it out on a regular week!
