Hi- I am new to Vegetarianism. I dont eat meat however I do eat dairy on occasion and I do eat eggs. I am looking for friends of all types of Vegetarian hoping to learn from your experiences and may one day switch to Veganism. I think it is difficult to practice a vegan life style without knowing a lot more about Healthy Vegan nutrition.

Anyways please friend me if you are interested in the same.

    Hi,
    I'm brand new to this site, but I've been a Lacto-ova vegetarian for 37 years now. Oh course I'm here because I want to lose some weight and after lurking for a couple of days it seemed like a pretty useful place to be. How long have you been a vegetarian?

    You can add me... I'm pretty new at vegetarianism too- since Jan 2011. I'm exploring veganism too. Lots of research, books and documentaries out there and so much to learn! :)

    I'm not quite a vegetarian--think "flexatarian" is the appropriate term. I eat mostly a plant based diet, I don't eat dairy, and seldom eat meat or eggs, though vegetarian is my ultimate goal--maybe even veganism, but one step at a time! Add me if you wish! I would love to have friends with similar diets--at this point I have very few and lately have been in heated debates about diet choices!

    I'm mostly vegan, the only reason I'm not fully vegan yet is because some gluten-free products contain milk or eggs but I try to avoid those as much as possible.

    Vegan for a few years now : ) I have a VERY amatuer blog where I am starting to write down all my recipes that are currently on scraps of paper stacked in various places in my kitchen so I have them all in one place. Feel free to use them if you want. The web address is http://favouriteveganrecipes.blogspot.com/ and I will be putting more up as and when I have time!

    Any time you want advice just drop me a message : )

    Hi there,
    I'm not a vegetarian for any ethical reasons, I just don't like the taste of any type of meat. I do eat eggs, though. Occasionally I may go for a piece of bacon or something, but its not very often.

    Vegan for over 10 years. It's easy. No clue how to add people as friends (new to this site).

    Hi! I'm new to MFP... and I don't really understand how community works. That being said, I've been meat free for about 6 years now and would love some vegetarian friends who understand that it's possible to a vegetarian and still need to loose weight. ~Amber~

    Not vege or vegan but dairy intolerant so have grown to love soya milk/ yoghurts etc. I am also intolerant to gluten and eggs so don,t eat those either. I have no problems sticking to the diet at home but find eating out a nightmare, egg in particular is always hidden in something. It can be done but i have to ask loads of questions. I eat very little meat but love fish. I was vege for 5 years but craved meat whilst pregnant never quite got back there and as my family are true carnivores this is difficult.

    Hi! I am vegetarian and have been for several years.
    I make all of my dinners without fake meats. I do eat cheese, yogurt and eggs. But I don't drink dairy milk. I use almond milk for cereal, cooking and baking.
    Friend me if you like!
