transitioning

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...

I noticed that the meals I grew up with became normal in my own routine. What does a week of meals for you family people look like? A while back, for me, it was Mac n cheese, fried pork chops, mashed potatoes (change the meat and a lot of these), spaghetti, lasagna, etc. I am curious what...

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 everyone, I am 34 years old and I have been a vegetarian most of my life. I started eating non-veg food 10 years ago. If I do not eat meat for a while, I don't feel fulfilled from within. But again eating meat also makes me feel heavy and lethargic. Usually, I take 2 non-veg meals a week...

Hellooo, My name is Pearse and I am a final year Interaction Design Student. I am designing an app to help people transition to veganism as part of my final year project. If you could take a couple of minutes out of your day to fill out this survey it would really help a fellow vegan out! Thank...

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...

I'm slowly transitioning to vegetarianism (and then veganism) but my mom is worried i'm not getting enough iron. (My parents are the reason for my slow transition - I want to go vegan now but they say I have to wait until i'm 18 *argh!*) anyway I've been tired and sleeping more than normal...

Hi all, I am not a vegan. Not even a vegetarian. It is soooo difficult for me to change. Most of the stuff I am used to eating, is not vegan. Some is vegan, but unhealthy - so I should not eat that either. My family does not approve of veganism and I still need to cook for them. Only vegan...

Hello, I have been wanting to go Vegan for a long time now. I'm finally starting to put things in motion but I keep running into the same hurdle. I want to find some food item(s) that I can buy in bulk, I need something that doesn't take long to cook but will be enough to cover all the calories...

Hi there! I am 15 and have transitioned to a full vegan (food, clothing, makeup) etc from a vegetarian. I have been vegetarian all my life so this was easier than transitioning from an omnivorous diet. I would like to eat extremely healthy eg. Legumes, fruits, veg (almost raw diet), however...

So I just recently saw Sergi G's 30 day vegan challenge and conclusion video and until now I had never considered going vegan but this dudes videos make it seem so easy (btw I STRONGLY recommend Sergi G's channel, his editing, production quality and personality are on another level). Anyhow, as...

Hello! I recently made a poll for Vegans on how they got family and friend support. I would like to know your opinions? Did your family and friends support you?

Hi Everyone :) I am new to this forum and I came here to ask for your help fellow vegans. I am a health psychology student and I have the chance to create an intervention for obesity, cholesterol and heart disease. So I dreamed up a non- profit, vegan organization whereby vegan volunteers would...
