Hi, a great vegan, low carb, high fiber substitute for pasta is tofu shirataki noodles, available in all natural food stores / health food stores and sometimes even in regular grocery stores. A large portion is also less than 20 calories. I think they are delish.

This is just a suggestion, but why not grow your own organic vegetables? And perhaps plant a small fruit tree? You can make your own compost. All it takes is your time and lawn clippings, leaves, and little dirt etc. Start with something simple like peas and zucchini and maybe a lettuce patch? It's up to you! You could save quite a lot not buying at the store and the satisfaction you will feel will make it well worth it.

I don't see anything wrong with keeping complex carbs in your diet. You can have potatoes, but the problem is that if you're on a diet you can't have butter or cheese with them. I'm a vegan and if I didn't eat complex carbs like potatoes, quinoa, brown rice, etc., I'm not sure what I would eat. I eat mostly carbs like pumpkin, lentils, corn, but I don't eat anything with added sugar. No white bread and obviously no eggs or dairy. I use vegan cheeses which are not delicious on their own, but taste fine when added to dishes in moderation. I use all kinds of sauces that are vegetable-based, nooch (nutritional yeast), fruits, and vegetables, vegan butter. It takes some research and experimentation for people to find what works for them. I think the trick is when you're starting out on a vegan diet is to always have suitable snacks on hand so you don't give into temptation. That's what worked for me.

My boss at the kennel gave me some veggie "chicken" patties to try, but I haven't made them yet. I have been eating a lot of fruits, veggies, and I cooked a pot of brown rice and measured myself a 1/2 cup serving with veggies. Im still eating eggs and cheese right now. But funny thing is, since I stopped obsessing about carbs and eating so much meat, my appetite seems to have decreased a bit?? And I'm not feeling so tired and yucky. I'm thinking my body was seriously lacking some nutrients. I'm going to keep researching and trying out recipes and stuff. And the compost idea doesn't seem too hard? I love working out in the yard.

I was vegetarian from age 12 to 28 and have been vegan now for 3 years Best decision I could ever make. The variety of vegetables, greens, fruits and legumes I've been eating ever since going vegan is incredible. Most of the things I eat now on a daily basis, I never even KNEW of when I was ovo-lacto-vegetarian, because honestly, as long as *it* had cheese in it, I was as happy as it gets. But without the cheese, I have found all sorts of recipes to make my dishes just as delcious, albeit very differently tasting of course.
I have about 25 oz of green smoothie for breakfast every morning, and don't eat any sugar refined or otherwise, unless it naturally occurs in whole fruits and veggies. I don't eat wheat, spelt, or rye. As a vegan that leaves me with limited options when eating out, but I manage. My health has improved significantly and that, to me, is worth it. I'm primarily vegan for the animals, though. I LOVED the taste of meat, fish and chicken. Disliking any of it was never the reason for quitting it. |

The seagan person (I'm referring to StephfromMIT) was a fake profile who is now banned, full of nonsense!
I made myself a vegan meal tonight that I thought would be too bland but somehow it was delicious. I was exhausted from work so it was a quickie. I threw together 1/4 of an avocado, half a can of tomatoes, 1/4 cup finely chopped celery, garlic powder, frozen/microwaved spinach and string beans. Not sure why it ended up being so good!

I just accidentally made an amazing vegan banana split. I love to make strawberries and bananas, the kind you add the sugar to and let sit in the fridge overnight....so anyway did that last night. Tonight, I decided to have some of Ben and Jerry's vegan chunky monkey: banana ice cream, fudge chips, and walnuts. I always nuke my ice cream 30 seconds so it's soft and easy to get out of the container. Plus, it tastes better to me. ..so, after I spooned some out I figured I'll just add some strawberries and bananas with lots of the strawberry juice. Tasted just like a banana split!😍
Also, for gay and gray: my favorite meal is rice, I have a rice maker- his name is Josh 😃, with stir fry vegetables, I buy it in bulk frozen, with Gardein beef tips. Just throw them right in with the veggies. Can't mess it up. So good! But, I admit I have no idea if they really taste like beef tips, as I haven't had meat since I was a kid. Pretty much can't go wrong with anything Gardein, though.

I eat lots of carbs. lots. I had rice and toast for dinner. Toast before bed. When you're not consuming meat and dairy you tend to burn them.
Giving up dairy was the best choice ever for me. |

*hugs all of you* I never in my life thought I would find other people like me....lesbian is one thing, right? And then vegetarian/vegan is something completely different. I'm so glad you all exist and are here! On a food note: I gave up sugar* 10 days ago and I am craving blueberry muffins. About to go make some and just sub in a mashed banana for the sugar. I love experimenting in the kitchen, but this one has me slightly nervous. Wish me luck! *I promise I don't hate myself! :P |

Living the vegan life style has been the one of the greatest changes in my life...really...began making green smoothies and running and the rest, well...really like night and day, on another planet. I am grateful to those green smoothies, and running.
I will say that the change was for me. One of my grand-nephews who just turned 14yo btw was vegetarian since birth! He does not touch/eat meat, always refused it, so we do eat together when I'm in the City. And I do cook what my other family members eat, chicken, fish, steak again when in the City...interestingly, my eldest sister doesn't eat red meat anymore...so, being an example and not preaching is the best policy for me and for my family. Yes to those green smoothies! Greco
