x sic transit gloria Waah! Total inspiration! What helped you decide to become veg at such a young age? Was your family supportive? aw thank you!! for me i think it was being raised with many animal companions of different species. i grew a very strong sense of animals as fellow living beings, and as my friends. so one day i was trying to eat meat for dinner, i thought about the animal it came from, and i just couldnt do it anymore. funny enough my immediate family has been totally accepting of my choices from the get-go and even helped me as best they can. they still eat meat and dairy sometimes but have also cut down their intake of it massively.

Way cool! I also noticed that my family began eating less meat when I did. I think it's because I cook every night. -__-! My boyfriend went veg with me, so that's been fun! He was a vegan for 6 years, but started eating meat again when he tore his ACL. He agreed to revert back because I promised him I'd make sure he got plenty of the vitamins he needs this time around!

It can definitely be a challenge to make sure we get what we need every day. Sometimes it just feels like too much food and I can't eat it all. The one thing I learned really quick about veg diets is how filling they are. Sheesh!

The one thing I learned really quick about veg diets is how filling they are. Sheesh! haha! yeah they sure are especially if you eat a lot of vegetables. but your stomach adjusts and then its all good because youre giving your body all the fuel it really needs. unlike how most people dont get most of their micronutrients because they dont eat enough plant based foods..
