Guest guest Posted January 3, 2002 Report Share Posted January 3, 2002 Hello Serene Glad to see that you are vegan again. Was your junk food vegetarian or just *regular* food?

Actually, I went pretty much omnivorous last year. I had always sworn that if I started obsessing over wanting meat, I would just let myself have it. I used to have an eating disorder, and I would rather die of a cholesterol overdose than go back to that. And my partner, cute-poet-chick, is the Queen of Diner Food, so after a couple of years living here, I started obsessing over meat, even though I'm not a big fan of it. So I resolved last Jan. 1st to eat whatever I wanted (which still turned out to be mostly vegetarian, but pretty high in fat and dairy). Which was fine, but I got tired of feeling icky, and I lost the desire for the animal foods, so this New Year I went vegan again. I had been a vegetarian since 1983, sometimes vegan, and I think the meat played havoc with my feelings of wellness (not to mention my ethical sense). And cute-poet-chick says she wants to start eating the stuff I eat, so long as she's still allowed (as though I can deny her permission) to eat her Big Macs when she wants them. So all is well. serene -- Knowledge is not a loose-leaf notebook of facts. Above all, it is a responsibility for the integrity of what we are, primarily of what we are as ethical creatures.
