Hi, I was a vegan for 6 months and was feeling so weak that I decided to go back to a vegetarian diet. Well turns out that I developed some sort of lactose intolerance. I'm not just talking about a slight headache. I am talking a huge headache, nausea, cramps, stomach pains, bloating stomach, and I can't even stand the smell of it right now. I am now a vegan again and I was wondering if any vegans could add me on here so we can talk proper balance and nutrition on a vegan diet so I don't feel so weak. Thank you,

    I know exactly what you are experiencing. I became a vegan over 2 years ago and there was one time i tried to go back to eating dairy just to find out i had developed a lactose intolerance. ( its not fun... lol) I had to really do some reading and dedicate alot of time to learning how to properly be vegan and how to nourish my body in a healthy, balanced way. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to chat with me. :) im always willing to lend out some vegan help
