    I was a vegatarian throughout highschool and started eating meat again in college (very limited amounts). I recently (Dec 21 2012) started a vegatarian diet agian. I've always felt guilty eating animal product... hoping one day to have a strict vegan diet.

    Hello,
    I have been a vegetarian for 3 years and went totally vegan 6 months ago. I have had 2 back surgeries, heart procedure and knee surgery. I was not able to stand without a cane and even then there was pain. I was way over weight. Since I joined MFP and started the exercise and nutritional program I have lost 22 lbs so far and now can walk 3 miles a day without pain. I want to be able to climb the beautiful mountains that surround me when the snow melts. I refuse to be my age (71 years old). I love creating and modifying vegan recipes. Today I made what I call chili plus which gives me the same protein as my protein powder. I go to the gym 3 days a week and walk the other days. I want to holler at the people younger than me to get into shape because it will only be harder as you age. I don't say that everyone should go on a vegan diet, but I do say that everyone should look for nutritional food that will give them protein and fiber. Good luck to every one of you out there. It is never too late to start growing young. All you need is commitment. Surround yourself by motivated friends and you can do anything.

    These are both so cool to read. My fiance and I are both vegetarian, and were just discussing raising any children we have as vegetarians. Of course they are free to choose a different path when they are older, but hopefully not : )

    Vegan who has lost 131 lbs.
    Just base your meals around vegetables and lean non-animal protein and it is easy to lose weight while having the energy to work out and not want to keep snacking between meals.

    I aim to add more to my profile etc later, so feel free to add me anyone.
