Hey everyone! I just joined your group and finally have found some

time to post a little about myself per the welcome questionnaire.

My name is Megan and I'm a 25 year old Hoosier (Go Colts!). People

call me Megan, Meg, Megs, Meggie Screggie, Leggo my Meggo, Mev,

Mags, Megatron...really anything they can come up with! I love

nicknames, at least those that aren't offensive, so I don't mind the

plethora I hear.

 

I have been vegetarian for almost a year now. I have tried it on

and off throughout my teens and into my 20's, but I'm afraid it;s

not easy for the solitary practitioner...especially one who loves to

socialize and eat! I've had many instances at parties or get-

togethers where I am the cause of consternation for hosts. I

inevitably hear " I'm sure I have SOMETHING you can eat. Let's

see.. " and the rifling begins. While it does leave me hungry at

times, I still appreciate the effort, right? My family tries as

best as they know how to accomodate my diet at family gatherings,

and nothing feels better than to know that they care so much about

your principles to go out of their way to fix up some roasted veggie

and black bean tacos or something.

 

I have found that a veg diet lends itself well to culinary

experimentation and I've found myself in the kitchen more often

these days than ever before. I'm developing a love of cooking now.

So, as I said, I love to eat, but eating does not love my body.

It's harder than I thought to actually lose weight as a healthy

vegetarian. Maintenance is all that's happening right now.

 

Maybe it's the ice cream...
