Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi, My name is Liz and I have been a vegetarian for almost 4 years(March 3). I'm married and have a five year old. I became veg for health reasons. After losing many loved ones to heart disease I had enough. I wanted to eat healthier and started to read. Some vegs get mad at me when I say it was due to health and not animal rights. I don't want to offend anyone here but animal rights are not my thing. I even had to leave a veg group because they treated us like the enemy. Well enough about that. We have been thinking about becoming strict veg but can't seem to kick the dairy. Eggs were easy because I'm allergic. We are lucky to have a great whole food co-op but we don't have any veg restaurants. We do have 1 Chinese place that is excellent! One of the few that actually serve tofu. Most of them here don't. Another thing I'm lucky is that our families are supportive for the most part. Half of my hubby's family eats veg and my family is supportive due to the reason (I lost my dad to heart disease).Well I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone better.
