Becoming Vegan!!

Hi!! I would really love to reach my goal of becoming completely vegan by my birthday June 6th. I've been slowly phasing meat, eggs, and dairy out of my diet, although I have not yet completely. Its currently 4am and I am going to try not to consume anything that isn't vegan starting tomorrow morning, Wish Me Luck!!!

    You can do this :) I made the switch to fully vegan a week ago and I am loving it. So glad I did.

    Good Luck! Hope it's going good for you! I went vegan "cold-tofu". One day, I was eating fried chicken...the next day strict vegan. I'm an all-or-nothing kind of person, so I knew phasing wouldn't work for me. February 22nd will be my 4 year veganversary :smiley: You are welcome to send me a friend request, if you'd like!

    Good luck. You can do it. The way your body will start to feel will help push you along.

    My best advice is try new things, don't just expect to eat the vegan versions of SAD foods and expect it to be satisfying (ie fake bacon, fake cheese and such). Also your taste buds will change as well, (they do for everyone anyways but they will even more so once you change your diet) so even if you don't like something today you may love it a week or four from now.

    I'm doing a slow phase out as well. We can be buddies. My goal is to be completely vegan by August.
