Happy Anniversary To Me!!

Today is my 1 year anniversary of becoming a vegetarian. The last time I ate meat was at my family's Christmas dinner (held on the 26th) of last year. I would just like to say it has not been easy. I was a die hard meat eater before going veg. I slowly weaned myself off of meat by saying good by to all of my favourite meat filled meals the last being a Christmas dinner. 

This year I made vegetarian gravy and stuffing and a vegan veggie loaf it made an excellent replacement for the traditional turkey. I am really proud of myself and I plan on working my way towards becoming vegan over the next few years (not something I feel I can do overnight). I feel better all around and know that from this point forward I am a vegetarian and I am never turning back!

Congrats.  ;)b

going from vegetarian to vegan is easier than it sounds.
Just phase out one item at a time.Plenty of alternatives out there for dairy and eggs not sure what you need those for anyway.
Congratulations making it through the first year. After a while you will never miss them old foods you loved so much

my experience going vegan wasn't hard at all. 2 years ago on my bday, we were in colorado and found this restaurant with vegan lasagna. then, we went to a health food store across the street and i got one of those alternative baking company cookies! it was AMAZAZING and i was like, ok this is sooooo easy. i could eat food like this and give my mom recipes because she's a total badass in the kitchen.
no problem at all.

then it was even easier, i found vegweb on google!
and that's how people get addicted.  ;D

good luck.
