Where are the vegans at?

I'm looking for vegan friends to add on here.

I was a vegetarian for 10 years, switched to eating meat for a year (I though I hit a wall but looking back I got into restricting around that time) and gained weight and all these crazy PMS/IBS/health issues which was one of the reasons why I stayed vegetarian for so long. Now I'm 6weeks vegan and I feel fantastic again while slowly upping calories.

    I'm kinda a vegan. I do ate eggs tho... add me, if I'm good enough for you. :(
  • I'm a vegetarian but trying to go vegan...slowly.
    Have tried 3 times before but failed (lost hair, memory loss, etc...).
    It's tricky to try and lose weight and change a diet at the same time.
    For me, at least.

    Here I am. I consider myself macrobiotic, but it is pretty much a vegan diet. I try to eat fish a couple of times a week. Basically no meat, dairy, eggs, sugar.
    Feel free to add me.
  • I'm a vegan and have been one for a very, very long time. Feel free to add me!

    I eat mostly vegan. Been vegetarian for 20 years (since I was 9) and never liked dairy

    Hi :smile: since Christmas, I've changed from an omnivore diet to a fruitarian one, which was a bit of a shock to my system, to be honest :laugh: anyway, now I'm transitioning to Vegan :smile: feel free to add me if you like :bigsmile:

    Whole grains, vegetables and beans are the mainstays, All organic when ever possible and locally grown. Sea vegetables, tofu, miso and tempeh. Fresh fish is OK. Brown Rice syrup and Barley malt is used for sweeteners. No highly processed foods,chemicals, no GMOs. It's kind of a hippy diet that has been around for a while but recently made famous by celebrities that are now macrobiotic.
