Guest guest Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 Hi just wanted to let you all know that after reading all your advice and doing some googling on various bits and pieces i am now becoming a vegan. I'm saying becoming, and will do for a while, because i think its going to be a gradual process and i'll probably slip up accidentally a couple of times. Anyhow, i decided to monitor my progress by starting an online diary to write the hows and whys and whats so if anyone wants to check it out its at http://laurakate01.diaryland.com/ (hope the link works) There's not much happening at the moment because i've only ust started it but it should be good. I'm hoping that in the future i can use it to help others. Not sure the logistics yet but i have a feeling it'll be useful. Therefore, I wanted to ask you guys a favour. Those people who gave me advice...Keith, Dave0, Gene, Pat, Dorothea, Trula, Lisa, Megan... i think thats everyone, would you mind me quoting you on my diary? I can quote it as yourname, the Feral Vegetarian , or as anonymous if you prefer. Either way, i'd really appreciate it. Thanks, Laura _______________ Overloaded with spam?

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2003 Report Share Posted March 3, 2003 Hi Laura, What a good idea! Haven't checked out your web page yet, but I will very soon (when I finish my emails). As for quoting me, no problem - anyway you like ;=) But remember, I think there are at least *two* pats on this list. Me, usually signed pat sant but sometimes I forget and sign just pat, and pat meadows. There may be others ;=) Good luck with it. I'm a long way from being vegan myself right now - and I'm not terribly sure how committed I am to it after being comfortably vegetarian for so long - but I do fine without the dairy. It's the other stuff - the non-dietary stuff, for example - as well as worrying about the hidden stuff in prepared stuff that you eat out - e.g. bread in restaurants, etc. and how sugar is processed and and and and. I am so in awe of people who manage not only a vegan diet but, as much as is possible in a modern world, a vegan lifestyle. best, pat -- SANTBROWN townhounds/ http://www.angelfire.com/art/pendragon/ ---------- * " Until he extends the circle of compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.
