    I think there's someone who has an avatar of a turtle eating oatmeal who's always on these threads. I'm sure she'll be here soon

    It's actually potatoes, but I guess they do kinda look alike.

    I was close! I was going off of memory haha

    I am a vegetarian, with vegan leanings (very little dairy, etc). I will admit that I do occasionally cave to my sushi habit, so under the strictest of classifications, I am pescatarian (though I haven't had any in a few months).

    Hi :) You can add me if you like. I've been vegetarian for 5 years now and am attempting to transition to veganism. It would be nice to have other veggie friends on this

    I always thought it was scrambled eggs and I could never figure out why a vegan would have that in their profile picture lol. Thanks for clearing up the mystery :#

    Still in transition from meat eater to vegan. Trying to cope with the man of the house who has no intention what so ever to change his eating.... Big fun..

    So I guess right now I am a flexitarian. Mostly vegan but with a little dairy (cheese) once in a while and very occasional meat. Striving to become 100% plant based.

    Veggie and excited to move towards more of a plant based diet. Oreos are my enemy though.

    you rock do you have an open diary? Would love tips on meals.

    I don't have an open diary but I use a lot of recipes from the cookbook "Isa Does It" (I omit all of the oil she recommends and just use broth instead) along with "The Starch Solution". I love to cook and don't mind spending lots of time in the kitchen :smile: The minimalist baker blog has lots of great recipes (though I didn't like her cookbook because I couldn't modify a lot of recipes - too much oil, sugar, processed stuff) - my favorite being the Bhudda Bowl, Recipe for Parmesan Cheese, and her vegan pizza. Let me know if I can answer your questions better - it has been quite the journey and the best lifestyle change I could have ever made! I've lost 53 pounds in the past year :smile:

    I love the minimalist blog. But yes sometimes hard to adjust. I haven't been to diligent in getting to wipe. But need to work harder.

    Hello! I just posted my own intro and then I found this one! I have been flirting with veganism for about a year and am ready to make the commitment! I would love vegan-minded friends on here for support, encouragement, and tips! I'll try adding some of you -- or feel free to add me!

    HI! Would love to be your friend and see your diary! Our daughter has requested that we support her in going dairy free, with the eventual goal of vegan. I am eating dairy, but have cut down dramatically and am moving toward more vegetarian meals gradually.! Thanks! I tried to send friend requests, but the system is not cooperating!

    I'm trying again to be vegetarian after the last few cycles having to be stopped due to health issues since I have nutrition issues and am intolerant to some supplement types - I'm hoping that with more supportive people and using MFP to track my micros now though I can figure something out. I'd love to be friends!

    Hi all, I've just started MFP (yesterday). I became vegetarian in 1986 and vegan in 1993. I am now eating only wholefoods, I've cut out all processed food and white pasta/rice/bread since 1 Jan. I'm also aiming for sugar free and low sodium. I make my own meat replacement protein (seitan) and I'm trying to eat as wide a variety of vegetables as possible (rather than relying on potatoes, carrots and mushrooms all the time!). My diary is friends only currently, so please feel free to add me. If anyone is looking for some vegan inspiration there is currently a campaign here in the UK called Veganuary and lots of my friends have taken up the challenge to try a vegan diet for a month. If you search 'veganuary' on google or website you can find lots of helpful information.

    I have been a vegetarian for about 20 years and I am mostly vegan now. I have a lot of vegan cookbooks and often post recipes in my diary which is open to friends. I would love more vegetarian/vegan friends for support.

    I've observed Meatless Mondays for years and I'm on the journey towards more full time vegetarian (and vegan)-ism. Right now the step I'm taking is to eat almost vegan at home (eggs, they're the hardest for me), and vegetarian when I'm out and about (which actually isn't all that often; I try to eat at home most of the time). I have an open diary and would love to connect with more WFPB friends!
