    Thought I'd say hello :)

    I've only been veggie again for the last two months, but was a veggie throughout my teens, and only had the odd bit of chicken since. So the transition has been easy and I feel so much healthier for it!


    Looking forward to stealing some ideas / veggie finds! :p:)

    Feels nice to have people like vegans, we're fairly rare. And if my mam has her way, then I won't be for much longer... She's not mad on the whole vegan thing.

    Ive just recently become vegetarian and I know my mam will be annoyed if I tell her, so Ive decided to keep it a secret for a while. I never eat any of her disgusting dinners anyway, so that's not a problem and didnt eat much meat in the first place. Also, my lovely boyfriend :) (I know he's stalking me on this) is vegetarian, so I have an excuse for buying stuff like quorn products, to make meals for him when he's over and because I want to eat healthier etc etc. She hasn't copped it yet, but she will eventually. I just know that starting out, I'll find it easier without her hassling me about it, telling all the relations and blah blah. Ill come clean once Im used to my new diet :)

    Also, Im kind of a lurker too, just registered recently, never really felt like posting, I was happy just to read all the threads, very interesting and helpful stuff :)

    I thought you might show up. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 266 ✭✭snooleen


    He actually didnt! He just showed me how simple it would be. I overheard my mam saying to one of her friends a few weeks ago, 'She's semi-vegetarian now anyway cause of her boyfriend...' hahahaha.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion

    Hi all! I'm new here, long time lurker though :o

    Been vegetarian for about 6 years.. my sister was so inspired that she's recently become veggie too :p (although I think it was more than likely due to the fact that she went travelling for a year and was afraid to eat meat :eek:)


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion
