Hello - I have lived in Oklahoma most of my life. :) I am currently living in Eastern Oklahoma along I-40 in Sallisaw. Just joined this group this morning on a suggestion by another member of veggieboards she is from way away from Oklahoma, though. LOL!

I am not a veggie, yet, but am getting closer to it. Have noticed my body doesn't like fatty foods especially meats - so that is a lot of what has made me look to Veg. My friend on here, Masja, got me to try Soy Milk - which I LOVE and have mostly gotten my family to like it, too. (I am a SAHM of 5 kids).

I am generally trying to become healthier as I am super obese and need to help myself. Also, just the whole being mean to animals and being dependent on them doesn't suit me as much. It will be a slow process, but I am going to use this board as my teacher. :)

Hi Mariann! :hi:

Glad to have you with us :)

Welcome to better health! ^_^ (and welcome here) Am on my out of Oklahoma, but as a former non-vegan, I can certainly attest to this board being extremely helpful. Really helped me to not feel quite so alone.

:hi: Welcome!
