Adjustments to vegan, how long does it take?

Once someone removes meat, dairy and animals products from the diet, how long does it take the body to fully adjust to vegan?

I've been vegan for a year now and I'm still making adjustments. I'm finding that fruit drops my blood sugar down which makes me tired and eating only vegetables leaves me hungry for fats, and eating fats makes me sluggish. It drives me crazy sometimes. It's a slow battle and I'm starting to wondering if this "10% protein is all you need" is a bunch of hype or not.

Society has balanced our food for us for so long, maybe it's going to take us a while.

My best advice is to listen to your body, when I don't I pay for it.

Maybe I haven't been vegan long enough, but I haven't noticed any of those things. The only negative things I experienced, like the ones you describe were from refined foods, animal products before trying vegan. I'm not 100 percent raw, maybe not even 50%. But I dont know I havent even estimated from calories. But its enough for me to maintain vegan for now.
