Hi, I'm a new member and I've just recently been adjusting to a Vegan life. I was a vegetarian from the age of 5 till 12, then I was eating everything, now over 5 years later I came back to being what I loved as a little kid and am wanting to go to the ideal place.<br><br>
It's been a little difficult and sometimes frustrating dealing with negative meat-eaters and sometimes I feel i'm all alone! No one around me really understands my choices.<br><br>
I am now finding friends on the web, and I'm not alone anymore! Support is really great nad it's nice to know there's alot of people who do understnad and are just the same!

hi claire,<br><br><br><br>
claire is a pretty name i think <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/smiley.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="">. tell me about those aggresive meat eaters...sheesh. i'm just to the point of smiling at them and not fighting. a good resource to find how to come back to their myriad of stupid accusations and on the flipside, inquisitive inquiries, here <a href="http://www.veganoutreach.com/starterpack/qa.html" target="_blank">http://www.veganoutreach.com/starterpack/qa.html</a><br><br><br><br>
you'll find out very quickly, they will not listen...mostly. they aren't worth my time. but i will be suggestive...to a certain extent, and share my sources of knowledge. they seem VERY intent on disavowing anything i say as being untrue and something i've fabricated or been led astray with.<br><br><br><br>
anyhow. welcome, and i'm sure you'll enjoy your stay.<br><br><br><br>
best!
