Becoming Vegan

[Guest guest]

Hey there! I joined a while ago but I haven't replied in ages. I'm

16, and I've been a lacto-ovo vegetarian since February 04, and I

KNOW that I will continue this for the rest of my life. Off and on I

was eating fish every few weeks, but I don't now. I think I

seriously want to transition into becoming vegan (dietary). My mom

and I are going to go through the house and try to get rid of various

generic foods that we've seemed to acquired over the past few

months. But, still, I think the main difficulty is that dairy is in

a lot of things, and I just need a little guidance for transitioning

from vegetarian to vegan. I think by the end of this year I'd like

to be vegan. At the moment I take a really good multi-vitamin, with

iron, vegetarian friendly, also B12 supplement. Any recommendations

for other supplements, etc.? And any tips, or stories of your own

for when you became a vegan, or just general feedback and/or

encouragement and/or support, anything would be great. You can also

Thanks! With much love,
