    Feel free to add me! I am a vegetarian. :flowerforyou:
  • I've just decided last week that i'm going back to a vegetarian way of eating. I was when 17/18/19,and last year did about 3 months off meat purely because I went off the texture. I too have been doing a lot of reading the last couple of months and have decided that eating meat is no longer for me. I always feel healthier when I don't, and find I eat way more nutritious food! My husband is an absolute carnivore and my children are to young to make the decision, so it's just me here too!

    Anyone can add me! I became a Pescetarian in March, and now am eating almost entirely plant based (no dairy, no eggs, but sometimes sushi). I'm loving my diet and cook almost everything from scratch but we also end up eating out which makes some challenges too!

    I'm an ovo vegeterian/ pescaterian most of the time- mostly for health reasons. On occassion I will eat meat as a splurge. I would love to be buddies! I eat a lot of gardein and smart products. one of my faves is Daiya Cheese Shreds. They melt and everything, but they're tapioca based! Makes my tummy happy while giving me that cheesy taste i sometimes crave!

    I'm trying to go vegetarian, it's difficult sometimes. My Dr has told me no more meat, no green leafy veggies, no soy, pretty much everything that I used to eat. I am allowed pastries though -go figure. My husband is a vegetarian, so I have support. It's just so hard not to eat meat. I have been doing poached eggs -so no fat- and had one chicken sandwich this week. #fail

  • Why would your doc tell you NOT to eat leafy greens, Tjantik?

    I've been a pescetarian for years now. I get a lot of my protein from the Morningstar and Boca brands of fake meat. I eat fake meat sandwiches, sloppy joes, tacos, pizza, hotdish, hotdogs, corndogs. My favorite right now is a veggie reuben. I use fake lunch meat, sour kraut, fat-free thousand island dressing, rye bread and a slice of swiss cheese. Toast it all together like a grilled cheese. Yummy!!!
  • Hello

    I've just started on here and have been an ovo lacto vegetarian for 10 years. I'd love anyone similar minded to add me to their friends list - be great to swap some recipies and tips!!

    Cheers all

    I have to avoid things that develope crystals in my kidney, I only have one that works so anything that can damage the tissue he wants me to avoid. Which includes quite a few things that I like :(

    HI: I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian and have been for 20 years. I'd almost aspire to be a vegan because I don't drink dairy milk (except in a pinch), except for the travel hassles, cheese, baking and pancakes! Please friend me if you'd like other veg friends!

    Hi all, I've been veggie for 20 of my 32 years - more habit than anything now I'm sure!

    I've got a super-supportive non-veggie husband who'll happily eat my non-meaty food, so I'm always on the lookout for tasty meal ideas (not keen on too much processed food - I like to COOK!).

    Feel free to add me if you like, just pop a little message in there :-)
