Hi guys! I am new here... I've actually been lurking around the forums for a few weeks and finally got around to joining!
I guess you could say I am a transitioning vegan. I eat a 100% plant-based diet, and last month I went cruelty-free with all of my makeup and beauty products.
I was vegan for 2 years, about 5 1/2 years ago, but I fell off the wagon and I am totally back on it now! I am inspired to be vegan because of health, ethics, and the environment... not mention world hunger. As I am making this transition I truly feel like a weight has been lifted from my back!
I have a fiancé who is not vegan but we recently watched "Forks over Knives" and he agreed to go on a plant-based diet with me, and he also agreed to raise our children on the diet as well!
As for him becoming a full vegan, that's another story for another thread!
I also have a 5 year old daughter that I am raising with my fiancé. She is a very picky eater but recently I have decided to try to transition her to a plant-based diet as well. Its tricky but so far so good, and again I might get into that in another thread.
Anyways I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself! I am very excited to be joining you all here!!
