Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 My name is Joy. I am 64 years old, and live in Florida. I just recently decided to become vegetarian, because of my love for animals. I am working toward becoming vegan. I really need the group for ideas on food, and a diet plan, to be healthy also. I believe Vegetarians and Vegans are healthier. I go to the beach a lot on the weekends in the summer. I also enjoy the flea market, yard sales, dinner out with friends. Now I have to become more aware of what restaurants are Vegetarian, and Vegan friendly. I lost 3 pounds in one week, just by not eating cheese. I was eating 3 to 5 ounces of cheese a day, and now am eating Soy cheese, in moderation. I believe it is the dairy that put the weight on me, and my goal is to lose 10 more pounds. A friend told me to look into Peta.com, and they sent their starter kit, a magazine to me, and I can't believe the cruelty there is to the animals that I have been eating, like roast beef, steak, chicken, etc. This turned me from a meat eater to a vegetarian.
