Guest guest Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Is anyone able to help with this, or pass on to anyone you know who might be able to help. Lesley _____ Alanbreezenews [Alanbreezenews] 15 August 2008 17:29 lesley HELLO Hello, I would very like to write an article on a vegan whose pet dog or cat doesn't eat meat either. I write for main stream magazines whose readers may not be aware of vegan pet food. Can you help. I look forward to hearing from you.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Welcome!! Nice to meet you. I'm Janine. I'm online googling vegetarian recipes. I found one that looks really good, tempeh cakes instead of crab cakes. : ) Janine On Apr 20, 2009, at 5:55 PM, witchywoman8039 wrote: > > > I just wanted to introduce myself.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Welcome, Christine!! Glad you found us. It sounds to me like you've make quite a nice start. Congrats on eating breakfast! That can be a real challenge if you're not used to it. About the journal, it took me a long time to even figure out what I was feeling -- both physically and emotionally. I wrote " fine " or " ok " or " blah " or " I don't know! " for a long time, LOL. One thing that really helped me was to get my blank journals from the Radiant Recovery online store. I don't know if that's what you use. It has lists of words for feelings and the format really works well for me. Really helped get me going. Glad you're here; hope you keep posting. <smile> Cinzia , " witchywoman8039 " <witchywoman80 wrote: > > I just wanted to introduce myself.

Journaling is still hard for me, especially the physical and emotional feeling stuff. I do drink a protein shake in the morning. I never would eat breakfast before. The getting enough protein in still a hard one for me. I love the veggie burgers and chicken alternatives but I also work shift work and it is hard to schedule meals and not snack.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Welcome, Christine! I'm a veg also. Tempeh, lentils and tofu are high in protein, beans and nuts of course. I've been thinking alot about the protein content -- how we have to have that same amount of protein at each meal. One step at a time...Anne ________________________________ witchywoman8039 <witchywoman80 Monday, April 20, 2009 5:55:22 PM Hello I just wanted to introduce myself.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hi Christine, welcome! I have shake for my breakfast too. Lately I've been having my brown on the side in the form of hot cereal. It's my favorite meal of the day, I think . Are you able to get enough protein at breakfast? You mention veggie burgers and chicken, which are typically later meals (though not always) and are later steps in the process, so I thought I'd ask. Taking the program one step at a time is the way to go! I didn't know if I'd ever be able to get off sugar when I found the program either, it's hard to imagine life without in the beginning--it fills such a big part of our lives then. Yet, here I am 8 years later still sugar free and loving it . You'll get there too. Heather There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. --Albert Einstein ________________________________ witchywoman8039 <witchywoman80 Monday, April 20, 2009 8:55:22 PM Hello I just wanted to introduce myself.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Hello, I am new on this site. I live in Florida, and am new to vegetarian living. My son has been vegetarian for about 3 years, and he makes some delicious suppers! I have decided to join him for health reasons, and also I just like the dishes. My daughter is in college, and works part-time at the cafe in a natural foods store. She has made some really wonderful things. This has been inspirational to me. She can look at recipes, and immediately see how she can make it work for many special diets. I am a good cook, but I want to cook delicious things that are healthier and vegetarian. I am happy to be here, and hope to learn ansd share with you all. Julia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
