Hubby and I have started the process of getting pregnant. I was six weeks late recently, so thought I might be pregnant. But, I was testing negative on the home pregnancy tests. My cycle has always been pretty regular, maybe one week off occasionally. So I thought, am I pregnant? Have I stopped ovulating

Thanks, I had read that. I just switched over to rice milk today. I did some online research and it doesn't seem to have the same phytoestrogen problems. Damn, do I love tofu, but I'll cut it out for now.

what about seitan & shit whats that other stuff....ummm crap.... i cant remember what its called.
have you ever tried to use pineapple in place of meat?
you can use dried or fresh or canned
fresh & canned have to be drained or dried if you want a drier texture.
if youre putting it in something wet, dont bother drying it.
it can be fried, baked, etc & spiced right, tastes a LOT like meat.
makes an amazing pulled NOTPORK OMGWTFBBQ sandwich!
:)

oooh i was going to suggest paneer but yr vegan right?

Seitan is ok, tempeh is great! It makes a great sloppy joe. I didn't know you could use pineapple to make a pulled sandwich. That sounds great!

Yeah, my body feels better if I'm vegan. But beans have lots of protein too. I also have this great thing that is like a healthy chocolate smoothie http://www.nutivahempshake.com/choc.htm

TEMPEH!
thats the other one i was trying to remember!
i dont like tofu, tempeh or seitan really.
i dont care for hardly any fake meat products cause the truth is
the ONLY reason i dont eat meat is cause i hate the idea of eating
little thinking, living, loving, caring creatures. i still like the way they
taste & fake meats dont do it for me.
;)

you have to watch for the fake meats with ISOLATES in them cause
its possible theyve used benzine or some shit to get the isolate...
& thats not real good for you.

you can use pineapple for all kinds of meat replacement!
if you dry it right & spice it, it can taste just like salami!
(same with eggplant!)

i miss trader joes curry garbanzos SO fucking much!
i wish they still made them!
;(
