Hello everyone! I am a senior in high school and 5 months away from being out on my own. I've been a vegetarian for almost 3 years now, and I have been using myfitnesspal for a little over a year. I've never ventured into the social aspect of the site, but considering I'm going to be a college student before I know it, I think I should probably start getting more of a support base with my healthy lifestyle than what I have. I would love to have friends to cheer on and share recipes with. So anyone, please feel free to add me!

    :flowerforyou: It's easy and fun. Just check out your library or bookshop for some recipe books. They are very inspiring. Good luck

    Here is a link I found, if you are familiar with the "Skinny *****" books:

    http://thecollegejuice.com/tag/skinny-*****/

    Also, I KNOW I have picked up a book in Barnes & Noble's that was specific to college campus and being vegan/vegetarian. It had all kinds of college recipes. Here I just googled and found it:

    http://www.amazon.com/PETAs-Vegan-College-Cookbook-Delicious/dp/1402218850

    Then you can just google or go to the bookstore and I'm sure you can find plenty. I did read some of that PETA book though, and although maybe not the cleanest food that you may way, it's DEF college and veg-friendly.:wink:
