Looking for Vegans

Hi, I am new to the app and would love to connect with vegans and share experiences, recipes, etc.

    Hello, and welcome!

    The most relevant, recently active group I know of for that is this one:

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/145477-herbivores-of-mfp

    It's only lightly active now, but there have been posts this month, and the more people who participate the higher odds it will pick up in activity. If nothing else, there are lots of posts there about experiences, useful recipes and strategies, etc.

    It is true that it's not strictly vegan, though a large fraction of participants are vegan. It allows and invites vegetarians and plant-centric omnivores, though the omnivores don't push meat-centric ideas.

    Personally, I'm ovo-lacto vegetarian, have been for 50+ years, thin to overweight to obese and back to thin. I eat large amounts of plant foods, including plant protein sources. I've posted in that group some, and if I mention vegetarian recipes with non-vegan details, I will comment with possible substitutions to vegan-ize.

    Whatever your goals in being on MFP are, I wish you success!
