I am a 35 year old vegan. I have been since December 29th, 2013. I lost a bunch of weight in the beginning but I have teetered off and I am kinda stuck. I am vegan for all the reasons including health, environment and ethics so please don't try to persuade me to eat meat...I don't wanna get into that here. Just trying to find so like minded folks to share this journey with.

    I just started yesterday. Purely ethical reasons. Been vegetarian before, but not sure what I've gotten myself into with this. If I get sick, tired, or gain weight, Bessie is back on the menu. With that said, feel free to add me.

    I love being vegan. I have so much more energy than when "Bessie" was on the menu. :)

    unless you want the sharks to feast on an innocent thread, divisive comments would be best made in the private groups here.

    it's SO very 'divisive' to state what one prefers. :huh:

    ....AND as much as i hate agreeing w/ John, he's right.

    i felt lighter, cleaner, and more energetic when i was a vegatarian for ca. 2 yrs. come at me. :laugh:

    Hello my fellow Vegans. Since going vegan I have lost 85 lbs in about a years time. That weight was not lost just due to cutting out the animal products and by-products out of my diet but it sure did not hurt the process. Glad to see some like minded people out there.

    I am a semi vegan and this sounds similar to what I'm doing. I love sushi with fish and I have a "cheat day" 3x per week when I eat stuff like burgers and hot wings. It's working great for me!!!!!!

    Pescetarian, that is the word you are looking for.
