Hey! New to MyFitnessPal. I've really been feeling motivated lately to log my eatings so I can stay on top of it with exercise but I'm newly turned vegan and was just wondering if there's any other vegans on a healthy journey as well?? Lemme know! Say hi (:

    I am newly vegan! And you can add me if you like! My caveat is eggs, as the protein burst helps with my hypoglycemia. Hoping to eliminate them eventually though.

    Hey folks! Vegan here, absolutely not for health reasons though, which, funnily enough, is why I now need to lose weight!

    Telling people I'm vegan is far easier than explaining EVERY other restriction that comes with the territory. And if you read my post, I said I'm working on transitioning them out. No need to be condescending.

    Me either! I didn't transition for health reasons but now that I'm starting this weightloss journey, it's a bit tougher. I definitely wanna make sure I get my proteins and stuff but I'm so new! Idk where to start! Lol

    From what I've read, you can replace honey with agave or maple syrup

    why cant vegans eat honey?

    Honey comes from bees and we don't consume anything animal derived including bees (:
