usually everybody gives advise regarding how much calories one should eat but no one tells how a common man can calculate the calories in the simple and effective way from the commonly used VEGETERIAN items.

Buy a calorie counter - these days, these little booklets include values for Tofu, TVP, grains and beans. # of calories is the same regardless of if they are from V egan or Carnivorous sources. Watch your amino acids if you are strictly vegetarian.
The best cookbook-philosophy book on vegetanarianism i know is Laurel's Kitchen, and Diet for a Small Planet by Frank Lappe is also a great source of nutrition info.

I just picked up the Biggest Loser calorie counter book. I have found it to be very helpful.
Good luck
