Questionnaire/Intro

[Guest guest]

Hi! I am a new member here. My name is Marian and I am Junior at a

small university in east Texas (English major, Music Theory minor). I

am currently enjoying my last year as a teenager.

 

I have been a practicing vegetarian since spring break of my freshman

year (a little over one year, 7 months), and of course I love it. I

share my dorm suite with two wonderful roommates who are happy

meat-eaters (I only know of one or two other vegetarian students on

campus, and a handful of faculty). For the most part, we do our own

cooking (or eat out), but occasionally we have group suppers. If I

cook, I make a vegetarian meal, and when they cook, they are usually

very polite about providing a meat-free alternative. The cafeteria

also provides a vegetarian dish during lunch and dinner for the

handful of us who are brave enough to try it.

 

Eating is, of course, a big issue for me. Being a college student (and

waist-deep in the hardest semester of my life), I don't always have

the time or the money to watch my diet and exercise. I also have very

limited cooking experience. However, I sincerely try to eat right and

lose (or at least maintain) weight. All support and tips are welcome.

 

Thanks,

Marian
