Guest guest Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hello everybody... I was veggie for a long time, but being married to a heavy meat/cheese/egg eater (who also smokes) I gradually slipped...an egg here, a little chicken broth there, until I wound up eating fish, chicken, eggs, and LOTS of cheese and drinking lots of milk. Then I recently started reading and watching videos again...John Robbins, T. Colin Campbell, Joel Fuhrman, Neal Barnard...you get the picture. I saw some really gross pictures that reminded me what I was actually consuming. That did it...I'm going vegan...NOW. Soooo...being a 'mature' lady of 71, and having grown children and step-children (and grandchildren) who just don't 'get it', plus living with my husband, two dogs and a cat who all are pretty much carnivores (our tortoise, thank heaven, is vegetarian)...I need all the support I can get. No veggie friends either....and nobody I know seems interested in their health. I have, of course, managed to put on 10 or 15 pounds that should soon disappear with a little exercise and healthy eating. So...here I am...going back to eating RIGHT. No beasties and no animal products except a little honey. Hope to learn from you all! Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
