Congrats! Being vegan is tough. D:

User Image


You're vegan? It sounds tough. D: I don't think I can give up milk and eggs just yet. Possibly later on in life.
User Image


No but I try to be vegetarian.
It can be tough D:

User Image


It is tough. How long have you been trying? C:
User Image


A Few years, I'm pretty good at it. Although on rare occasions i will put honey in my tea or eat jello.

A few years? I'd hardly say that's just trying. c:
Do you still eat eggs and milk? Or have you stopped eating that stuff? o:

Oh wow. I can understand the dairy. So you're almost vegan then. Hahaha. c: I don't know when I'll be able to give up eggs just yet, though. I'm not that strong. .____.

I'm lactose intolerant, so that aided in giving up dairy. Although I do eat Activia when I become irregular. (not often) Eggs I never liked and meat is expensive and I hate the smell of it. D:
I live with my parents and they don't understand how I survive.
I refuse to touch animal products except honey and jello. XD
And they eat meat at every meal.

Oh, that really makes it easy for you. I think I'd be willing to get rid of eggs if it wasn't in so many desserts. It if it wasn't, I probably wouldn't eat it anymore. Same with milk.
I'm not fond of the smell of meat either. Although that's not the reason I don't eat it anymore. Hahaha.
The rest of my family eats meat at every meal as well. (Except for my mom. But she's dieting right now.) I wish it were that easy for me. D: But it isn't.

You can make a lot of desserts with coconut milk and fake egg whites that you can find by the milk in walmart. I make chocolate pudding with the Silk Vanilla Coconut milk. It is really yummy. :3

Same as regular milk, three bucks for a gallon and then you buy the Jello Chocolate Pudding Cook And Serve and just follow the instructions just use the coconut milk instead of regular milk.

Great job! <3
I've been a vegetarian for about 5 years now. I don't find it hard anymore. Actually, the smell of most meat repulses me.
Good luck keeping it up!

Thank you. I'll keep than in mind if I ever decide to convert. Probably not anytime soon. I'm still getting comfortable as a vegetarian. But this sure helps. C:

Well I decided to start off with just one day a week and I totally failed. So I suggest just cutting it off completely (sounds like that's what you're doing).
There's a lot of vegetarian Indian food, so I bought a couple cookbooks from that region. Chinese is also a great choice.
I make chickpeas a lot. If you like them, they're a good source of protein. Any sort of beans are. Also, for iron try dark greens like spinach.
Salads are also great, just make sure you add some prtotein to them to fill you up! Look for some ideas online for how to incorperate beans and such into meals.
Eggs have protein in them too, try adding an egg to a meal without any protein.
I took some of my favorite foods and kind of vegetarianized them. So instead of chicken quesadillas I have beans ones. Stuff like that, you know?
Also, fake meat crumbles taste really real. I think the ones I get are Morning Star? Morning Star fake chicken nuggets are also good. I think they taste real, but I can't really remember chicken any more, sooo...
I dislike veggie burgers, but I really like black bean burgers (again, I think they're morning star) so if you don't like veggie burgers, check them out.
My fallback meal is an Amy's frozen burrito (I like plain old rice&beans).
That's all I can think of at the moment. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them...

Well done. Good on you. You just have to keep up the intake on iron and other vital minerals. A friend of mine has been vegetratian for several years but near the end of last year she found she had anemia. So you HAVE to make sure you are eating food that contains iron. Parsley is very good for iron intake, although, personally, its tastes awful. But you can always chop it finely and throw it onto pasta or rice. biggrin Good luck
