  1. I just want to say again thank you to everyone who replied to this post, and giving me such warm welcomes and very helpfule advice, and much needed encouragement. I hope to outgo my expectations, and become a good vegan and a even better person, so again thank you ever one. Best of luck in your goals as well, and be blessed. =^.^=

  2. Hello everyone! I guess I should start off by saying i'm in no way a vegan...yet, but I hope to be. I guess to I should state i'm 21 don't know why, but it helps...?

     

    I became a vegetarian sophmore year in highschool, one because I like being different, plus to loose some serious weight, I was 210-220 at the age of 16 yikes! Thankfully with God, support from family, dedication and a very incouraging counselor and teacher, I lost the weight and sucessfully kept it off for 4 1/2 years weighing in at 175lbs (approximately). Sadly in culinary school, there is food everywhere, but I manged to stay below 200lbs.

     

    Currently I have been struggling at keeping a healthy lifestyle, but even more at finding my dedication and spark for getting back into the fray of things. Although I was a I ate chiken, fish, eggs and milk...like with beef and pork I am slowly growing out of having a taste for them and have had success of removing them from my diet. I really want to become vegan...my family is worried I'm not going to get what my body needs more than anything...it's tough living here in little Greensboro NC.

     

    I'm here to make friends who have chosen to be heathier individuals, to become healthier myself, to learn, to be motivated, find my dedication and inspiration, break sterotypes and cliches; become more comfortable and cofident about myself.
