transition

I've wanted to become vegan for about 3-4 years now, but I've always been told by my parents, for as long as I live in their house, it won't be an option. They said they will not cook me any special meals or buy me special food because I'm "not special" I've offered to pay for my own food...

My boyfriend wants me to become vegan but I need patience from him. Pls help. My boyfriend and I have been fostering a really healthy relationship, and we both have discussed the fact that we see this going very far. From what I can tell, neither of us have any interest on ending it any time...

Hello 👋, I am a 24-year old female with Autism. I am a very passionate animal rights person. I went vegetarian at 13. I then went vegan at 20. I then went back to vegetarian more recently. I really want to go back to vegan and hopefully stick with it for life, but I love cheese, especially...

Hello 👋, I used to be vegan, but I’m now veggie again. I’d like to go back to veganism. However, I need some more persuasion and motivation... Can you please recommend some good vegan documentaries? Here are my requirements: * Has to be ethics and animal rights-based, not about vegan food, the...

Hi all, I'm Will. I recently trained at a vegan animal sanctuary and it was an eye-opening experience. On my way there I was a shameless meat-eater but since my visit I haven't been able to eat meat with a clean conscience. I have since reduced my meat consumption drastically, and hope to...

Hi folks, About 3 months ago, my girlfriend and I decided to reduce our meat consumption and try to eat a more wholefood, plant-based diet. Because I'm a bit of a geek, I created a little meal planning app that uses recipes available online (e.g. BBC Good Food) and then automatically adds the...

In the first instance, I´d like to apologize for my poor writing, English is not my main language and I couldn´t achieve the information I required on local forums. I´m 17, from Spain, and I would like to become vegan in order to decrease my environmental impact. These are the facts, I suffer...

Hi Guys! I'm fairly new to the forum and hopefully a thread on this topic doesn't exist... :) I am just curious to know if any of you have seen a nutrition professional at any point on your vegan journey. If so, what was the reason for it? And if no, why not? If you had enough money or time...

Hi, so where to start...I decided to go vegan overnight just over a week ago, purely because I looked into it & the animal cruelty aspect was mind boggling to me. I’d say I ate at least 1 portion of meat a day, A LOT of dairy products, plus I loved eggs. Now I literally have no idea what to...

Hello, everyone! I'm very happy to be a part of this wonderful community! It's been a month since I started my transition into plant based diet. Still have eaten few eggs and a little bit of cheese into my pesto. Also eaten 1 whole fish. But I'm getting there. 95 % of my diet have been plant...

First I'll start by saying today is my first birthday as a full vegan! (I turn 18 today). I became vegetarian about two years ago because I couldn't believe what animals are put through just so people can eat them. Then around January of 2018 my sister and I found out that not all cheese is...

Hi Guys ! I have recently switched to fully plant based diet. I was already a vegetarian so didn't had to give up much and so far it's been really great. I have been using rice bran oil, soyabean oil and mustard oil to cook food. In almost all the Indian dishes there is some or the other oil. I...

Hello! Before I say anything you should know that I have a restrictive Eating Disorder as a result of a heavy depression and severe OCD. I am very interested I'm becoming vegan and I believe that it could help me add more variety to my diet, however I foresee my parents being very against it...

Yeah I'm a vegetarian (have been for a year now yay!) and I'm thinking of going vegan. I'm a pretty sloppy eater (chips and chocolate are my best friends) so I'm also trying to eat healthier. I have a nut allergy so suggestions for nutritional alternatives would help a LOT. I've been a little...

Christmas is around the corner, and I am looking for a good covert vegan cookbook for a gift for my mother. Any suggestions?

Hello all, I have written a little article that I am super proud of. There are reasons you should go vegan, facts, alternatives, and humor. If you would check it out and let me know what you think! goo.gl/ycLgfj

Hi :) I would love to go vegan but I am fructose intolerant. Since most fruits and vegetables contain high amounts of fructose I am not sure how to transition. If anyone has any tips they would be highly appreciated :)

Hello! I decided to join the online community to seek out those similar to me in values and beliefs, and to get support when I need it most! I decided to become vegan after watching Earthlings, and that was about a month ago-- June 13, to be exact. I've been doing loads of research on ethics...

Hey, 15 year15-year-old(almost 16) female, and I am trying to become a pescovegetarian but I am not having the support I need. My mother has been a vegetarian for 10 years but stopped about 5 years ago since she got pregnant with my sister. My mom's not that big or meet eater, but sadly I am. I...
