So I'm A Vegan Now

[cincycub]

... or at least I will be for a month. It's strange... two years ago when I joined my friend John for a bi-weekly vegan potluck and book study, I had no idea that at the end of the two-month study I'd be giving vegetarianism a go and that it would have lasted two years (with a few minor hiccups along the way). I also never fathomed giving up eggs

Good luck... I love meat too much to give it up myself :)

Most of my family has gone the whole paleo diet route, which doesn't always work out well with me being a vegetarian for 15 years now.

Smart approach! I've begun by controlling the portion size of my meals and trying to eat at reasonable times ... no meals three hours before bedtime. I hope to move gradually, but purposefully, toward a healthier diet.

Thanks for the information!

I can't strongly enough recommend these books, in the following order:

1. How It All Vegan! by Tanya Barnard and Sarah Kramer
2. The Garden of Vegan by Sarah Kramer and Tanya Barnard
3. La Dolce Vegan by Sara Kramer
4. Veganomicon by Isa Chandra Moskowitz

I have dozens of vegan cookbooks, but these four are my go-to books for almost everything. The first two are enough to keep you going for awhile.

I'm familiar with Isa but I don't know the other ones. Thank you!!
