Welcome, Rupa. And congratulations on two months

as a vegetarian! That's an achievement, and I'm

sure you're proud of yourself - and probably

feeling a little better too?

And, I understand, from bakers' yeast, brewers'

yeast, soy beans and white beans (someone will

let us know if I'm mistaken, please!!!!)

Well, it helps if you have strong motivation, I

have to say. For myself, I follow a plant-based

eating regiment - this benefits the animals and

my health and the planet all at the same time

You say you have changed to vegetarianism for

your health - that could be motivation enough, of

course. Whatever works for you.

 

> At the same time I am

> trying to loose weight .

 

Well, there's another good reason to be

vegetarian - provided you eat a healthy balanced

diet, not full of processed foods, sugars, fats,

etc. Have a look at the files we sent you upon

joining, have a look at the Recipes in our Files

(see our homepage for the link), and ask for

anything you need!

 

You should really begin to be happy about your

vegetarianism when you discover that not only are

you feeling better but looking slimmer too! As

for your family still eating 'the full range of

food groups' - you mean me*t primarily of course

- you will soon start to feel sorry that they

don't feel as well as you do!

 

Meanwhile, smile a lot and enjoy your new

adventure in the land of vegetarians. We're a

friendly bunch and we love to help newcomers

settle in.

 

Enjoy the group. Write in often to tell us how

you're going!

 

Best, Pat (Co-Owner of group with Cindi)
