in Food and Nutrition
I'm a vegan and want to befriend some peeps with similar diaries and active exercise logs. If anyone has some some tasty food recipes or vegan-oriented tips that would be awesome too. :)
P.s. As a vegan or vegetarian what is your biggest nutrient concert and how have you overcome it?

    My biggest concern was the high amount of carbs compared to protein and fat I was consuming (not saying carbs are horrible or anything, just generally not as filling and it was causing me to miss out other places) but I've mostly eliminated grains (personal choice,, once again, not saying they are horrid) and that has helped me focus on more nutrient rich foods. (nuts, avacados, etc.)

    i've been a vegetarian who eats mostly vegan for over 2yrs and just joined this site. the month of december i ate way too many carbs, sweets and overall crap. so i'm trying to refocus my "back to basics" diet on fruits vegetables and beans.
    fatfreevegan.com and vegweb.com are where i get alot of my recipes
    and i have my own blog geekswhoeat.blogspot.com with some vegan recipes
    nutrient wise i worry about not getting enough b12 so ive started taking supplements

    There are loads of veg*ns on here. Try searching in the posts for vegan or vegetarian and you'll find posts from lots of people you can send a request to, and look under the groups - there are some veg*n groups as well. Good luck!

    I've been a vegetarian since I was 7 years old. I do cook meat for my husband and kids, but most of our meals are veg. I occasionally cook with substitutes by quorn...also do a lot of tofu, beans, and veggies. Adding you!
