Hello!

[Guest guest]

Hi, I'm new here so I thought I'd introduce myself and tell you why

I am here...

I have been vegan for about a month now, gradually started

becoming vegan months ago when my biology teacher

enlightened me on the extent of cruelty to animals and the bad

health effects of consuming animal products. (He is a college

professor and vegan. Has articles everywhere in his office and

makes a video on animal cruelty and healthy eating part of the

class. Great guy! Probably reaches at least two people per term,

maybe more- I'm trying to be realistic, but I don't know. I only

know that he reached me and thru me, my son). I actually was

vegetarian when I was a teenager, but there was so much

pressure from family and I was so young. Oh, how the world

changes! Now I tell my mother I am vegan and she tells me she

loves vegetables and sends me some vegetarian recipes. Hey,

vegetarian is a good start for her at 65! I am happy to say that I

feel so good living the vegan lifestyle and my 12 year old son has

joined me in this new way. We explain our vegan choice as the

choice to minimize and end animal cruelty.

Anyway, wanted to join a community of like minded folks for the

support & access to info when needed.

Thank you!
