Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 * your name or nickname - I go by GINNY * where you live (continent, region or city, whatever) - I live near PHILLY * your age group - teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s or more (congratulations!)? - I am the ripe old age of 41 Also: * Are you vegetarian (or vegan), still working at it, or still thinking about it? How long? I am still working on it. I am extremely turned off by the hormones and antibiotics that are given to meat. I am also concerned about what I have recently learned about the meat industry and the environment. * Are you the only veggie or wannabe in your household? How many others? I am the only one. I slipped morningstar veggie hot dogs in last night and he claimed that " these sausages have no taste " . There is me and the hub, and our 3 girls (ages 5, 3, and 1). My baby WILL NOT eat meat, dairy or eggs. She is vegan all the way! * Do you do the cooking or is it shared? I do all the cooking. WAIT! Anything else you would like to tell us? This is your Big Chance!!! I might add that started all this for me was reading the book " Skinny Bitch " . I would like to loose a little bit of weight before I go to Europe this summer. I got the book because of the interesting title. The book went into a lot of detail about the meat industry. Then, I started looking into it. There are a lot of people who are very passionate about eating meat. When I started talking about it, people seemed to come out of the woodwork in defense of the ranchers. Ultimately, my goal is better health and weight loss. I've had 3 kids realtively late in life and a load of stress. I have sought comfort in food and now I need to loose about 50 pounds.
