    The only thing I have noticed that has changed is that my energy is not as strong when I go to the gym. Can anybody give me some advice about this please?

    Thanks in advance. :smile:

    I don't know what you eat, but assuming this is a sudden change, you probably don't have a deficiency (though it's never a bad idea to look into it). It is possible that you're not eating enough calories! Vegan food is less calorie-dense and you need to eat a larger amount of it to get the same amount of calories. So it is possible you haven't been eating enough.

    Gluten free, dairy free, pesctarian here. My fish and eggs are exceedingly rare (very particular about sources, it's in my profile) I'd say less than 10x a year, but they do happen.
    Being GF/LF/Pesco forces a reasonable amount of clean eating on my part, but it's all good, I feel better because of it anyway :wink:
    Anyone feel free to add me.

    I am a vegetarian who is slowly transitioning towards veganism. I try to eat as clean as possible and have noticed a dramatic change in my health because of it. Looking for friends who are all of the above for both support and also so I can look at your diaries and get food ideas!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE meat, BUT we try to eat vegetarian suppers as much as possible (family medical conditions require it).

    (not a clean eater though, I eat a mix of it all)

    I've been lacto-ovo vegetarian my entire adult life, eat vegan most days.

    I haven't been able to lose any weight since my last baby was born (he's 16 months), I'm 20 pounds overweight & need some inspiration! I feel like I already eat very healthy (lots of fruits, veggies & beans), so I'm starting to do the exercise thing but I don't have much experience. :)

    I've been vegetarian for a little over 3 years and love promoting it and educating people! Feel free to add me, I need more friends anyway :) Going vegetarian was the best thing I ever did! I grew up on a lot of meat, especially steak, I thought I could never do it. Literally halfway through a ham sandwich I realized I was eating a poor piggy and never ate meat again! I did it for animal rights and my boyfriend did it for health reasons. I'm happy to share ideas, answer questions, etc. I like to share my meals in my news feed sometimes too. For all the newbies, you can do it!

    I will admit, just because you are vegetarian does not mean you are always healthy. Meat didn't put me at this weight, but I did add a lot of it while eating a poor vegetarian diet.
