Hey looking for some friends who follow the plant based lifestyle? I recently saw forks over knives and it changed my life! I've been in this lifestyle for 5 weeks and have seen such amazing results! I lost 26 pounds and feel fantastic! Looking for others who understand the transition, offer support, and exchange recipes!! Friend me please!

Fellow (3 year) vegan here. Started out vegetarian about 6 years ago and 3 years in I made the switch to vegan. I just joined MFP a week ago and I love the food and exercise tracking system (especially the food system). They have a very extensive data base and I have found alot of vegan foods are in it as well. It was a pleasant surprise. They also have a vegan section (link) with alot of recipes I'm looking forward to trying. Feel free to add me as a friend! :flowerforyou:0

I don't think I've seen the movie (maybe I did a long time ago, but I don't remember it if I did), but I've been plant based for 5ish years now. I was vegan for about a year and I'm transitioning back to that. Cut out dairy as of this week (that is the easy one for me), but I'm still eating eggs for now.
My recipes are simple and I use the recipe module of the site often so you can't see my ingredients all the time, but I'll share if you ask! I'm happy to collect veggie friends!0 -
Send me a friend request if you want to be buddies to check in with each other. I just moved to plant-based/ vegan 5 weeks ago. I have been veggie (ovo-lacto) for years but now going vegan who-hoo!0

Why is it that when someone asks a simple question about plant based, a non-plant based HAS to put in his 2 cents? Plenty of successful vegans out there @Wetcoaster. No need to give your useless opinion
OP, I've seen the movie and liked it a lot. I'm not plant based but I stopped eating meat about 4 years ago. I would like to eventually stop dairy completely and eggs.
Meanwhile, check this guy out! SO inspiring: Jim Morris. 78 year old vegan bodybuilder:

Because it's an open forum?
Edit: Did westcoaster's post actually get flagged? I wonder for what reason...strange.

Perhaps because one shouldn't be making lifestyle decisions based on a "documentary" that is fraught with bad science and misinformation.
