    I don't label my way of eating really but I follow a mostly plant based diet and am also interested in befriending vegans and vegetarians.

    I love the pepperjack between two corn tortillas - just pan fry and eat. Extra yummy stuffed with BBQ soy curls.

    I have been "plant strong" for 2 months now. I would say vegan but my daughter always points out that I wear leather shoes : ) I love the Daiya cheese as well for when nothing else will do. I also have a recipe for a great nacho-y flavor cheese if you'd like it. Dairy was by far the hardest thing for me to give up. I love all dairy especially cottage cheese. I am struggling now because I gained weight since giving up meat and dairy, I think I just need to track what I am eating so I know where my calories are coming from...so here I am!

    I'm a vegan of 1 1/2 years. I enjoy raw everyone once in a while, but definitely like my cooked beans and tofu. If anyone would like to add me, just send a request. I have an open food diary and love to give and get support on here from other vegan-minded friends :)

    I've been Vegetarian my whole life. Never ate meat in my whole entire life. Not even as a baby. I just never wanted it.

    I was vegan for almost a year...then was convinced to start eating fish, eggs, dairy, and some chicken...after about a month of that I realized it was the worst decision I ever made. I've been vegan again for about a month and a half. I've been looking for more vegan/vegetarian friends so anyone feel free to add me!

    Hi I am in the beginning of the transition process of becoming a raw vegan. Looking for vegan friends seeing as where I live vegans are not around me and this lifestyle will be considered weird. Looking for support from other like minded individuals. Please feel free to add me.

    Hi!


    I have been vegan for almost 4 years now and when I take my vitamens and eat well, I feel great. This past year in college I gained 20 pounds :/ (alcohol, bread and nuts were my way of diet most the time! awful) I have now decided to be raw vegan until haloween, as kind of a detox and beginning to my 30 pound weight loss goal.

    Any one else a raw vegan and struggle on the 80/10/10? I go over on my fat everyday, I think I am addicted to avocados. I am getting sick of berry/green smoothies and salads. Any recomendations for dinners that are low in fat And taste good?

    Aloha

    I'd like some pointers on the 80/10/10 as well...I only lasted on the 80/10/10 diet for a couple weeks. I was irritable all the time, with a constant headache. The entire time I physically felt like I wasn't getting enough nutrition somehow. But I was only on it for a couple weeks, so maybe I was doing it wrong.

    With the 80/10/10 you need to consume tons of calories. You should be eating 3000-3500 ideally.
