Haha yes, it can be tricky!! Probably why I'm not a complete vegan.. At least at this stage of my life, it's not quite achievable/sustainable in a healthy way

I'm a pescetarian, but I live the veggie life 4-5 days a week.

You know Gummy Bears are barely vegetarian, much less vegan?

Just trying to incorporate more veggie eating...have done a month following a vegetarian diet, now a month on vegan. And trying to get fitter at the same time so getting a good balance of nutrients is the challenge.

I recently switched to vegan. Would love to be a part of a group that is veggie/vegan to get ideas on nutrition

I am currently (slowly!) transitioning from a vegetarian diet to a vegan diet. I'd love to have a group of like minded people to share ideas with. My diary is currently open as well (although I've never claimed to be the epitome of health!)

Whole food organic Vegan checking in. I started in 2010 with the speech from Gary Yourofsky. This led to me watching countless documentries and reading many books and studies from Earthlings, to Forks over knives, to vegucated, to the China Study, to the blue zones, etc.

I've been working on transitioning to a whole food, plant-based diet. It's hard because I'm trying to win the family over, as well.

Hi! I've been vegan for the last 7 years, and own a vegan restaurant. It's a really great way to live!

Add me! I'm mostly plant-based. I was a vegetarian for two years, moved back home for awhile, and since I wasn't the one buying groceries for most of that stretch, the vegetarian thing went out the window. I've since given up on being totally plant-based, since my body has let me know that it needs meat on several occasions. Still, most meat grosses me out, so I stick with salmon when I need more protein.

I have gummy bears made with agar agar, no gelatin in them.

I've been a science based vegan for over a decade now. And I also love Vegan restaurants... they keep me well fed, although sometimes I wish I could get more protein at them regularly. My goals as a bodybuilder tend to keep me in a high-ish protein diet.

What is a science based vegan?

New to veganism my first week! Anyone can add me!
