Even for someone like myself, who currently has no plans to be a vegetarian or vegan, it's still really interesting to hear about people's reasons, and it does make one think about their own choices.

How do you balance being a vegan and recovery? I tried for a really long time to do both and I found it impossible as it triggered all sorts of restriction thoughts and actions and in the end I had to make a decision to have no "off limits" foods but instead to make the conscious choice to eat animal products that came from humanely treated animals (well to the extent that is possible in both my location and with my wallet) when the need arose. Is/was this a struggle for you as well? Even if it wasn't, any thoughts on how to deal with it? My old doc immediately wrote of veganism as unhealthy and refused to offer any tips but I think I was much happier and healthier when I stuck to that lifestyle. Thanks Nicole!

I was surprised at how easy it was to go vegan! I loved reading your story, especially the part about how much veganism has changed you, and taught you how to cook!

I was a picky eater before too that considered blue cheese dressing and carrots vegetables and taco bell burritos a prime staple. But once I got out of high school and started to see the world differently, more independently, I decided to make a difference on my own. I guess it shows maturity when you stop following others and start your own path, being a passive person myself too. Anyways I really loved hearing that turning vegan actually made you have to learn to cook. Same goes for me too. Its definetly a life change, but a good one :) Maggie I really enjoyed reading this!

I also have a friend who LOVES animals and I just wonder how she can not make the connection that by eating meat shes promoting such a cruel industry. She adores kangaroos and thinks it's awful that people kill them, yet she will eat one for dinner. I just hope one day, like you, it will click! What an inspiring post!
