    I think there are plenty of vegetarians/vegans on this website. I'm vegetarian too and it's always nice to meet more like-minded people. :}

    Sorry for the slow reply guys :)
    Just started back at university and only just updated my food and exercise entries.

    On the carbs I also eat alot but I now try to swap some carbs for pulses that are high in protein. The easiest thing I could recommend is just to exercise more to burn off the calories you get from the carbs. For instance I take my dog out for at least 90. Minutes a day, I love doing zumba and other dance games on my ps3 too. It's fun, you loose track of time and you burn a lot of calories.

    :D.

    Technically am neither but since reading the book 'fit for life' - really has changed my perspective, so now i may eat meat but then i can go weeks without it and my mornings and afternoons are filled with fruits and veg - alot of raw veg ..... all you guys should read the book for some interesting recipes if the theory doesnt float your boat.

    I am new the vegan world... started a week and a half ago. Although, I did slip once... I'm also gluten free and I had some Udi's g-free bread; which contains eggs. Other than my little slip it's been easier than I thought! And the lack of a good vegan gfree bread is keeping me away from processed foods altogether :)

    I'm a vegan of almost 4 years, brand new to the site (as in joined less than an hour ago) and would love any low carb vegan menus if anyone would care to share (I love, love, love to bake and I'm just going to have to stop for a while but I am my own biggest fan - literally & figuratively).
