New!

Hi, I'm new here.

I am not presently a vegan, but I would like to get myself there.  I'm not even a vegetarian yet, really.  But I'm done ignoring what the animals go through to get the meat on my table.

I am (almost) 19 years old.  I'm a college student three out of four seasons (not this season, of course).  I have no car, and I only work over the summer.  I'm a picky eater, but I'm stubborn enough to make that not matter.  I am allergic to every fruit I have ever tried (I need to go get allergy tested on that one).  I LOVE chocolate.  I have, to this point, lived my life on chicken and macaroni and cheese, really.  Makes me feel dirty just thinking about it.

My father is not behind me on this, and my mother will tolerate it but might not be helpful.

All of that being said, I'm trying to figure out the best place to start.  I'm going to need to take it slow, probably very slow, if I really want this to work.  I'd appreciate any tips or notes of encouragement you can spare.
