Nothing has made a better impact on my health than turning vegan.

I'm feeling more energetic, my skin is way cleaner (no acne anymore), I do more sports and I feel better in literally any way.

How has becoming vegan affected your life?

Can't you be sufficiently happy in your own life choices to not need to tell the rest of the world that you're a better person than them?

Have you ever actually talked to a cow? They're not even the slightest bit grateful for what vegans do for them. They have no concept of the future. We need other humans to thank us or nobody ever would.

No thanks

I initially became vegan when I realized that DRUMPF was LITERALLY Hitler and going to destroy the environment.

Was this the world I want my wife's son to group in!? HELL no! That's why I've stopped eating meat and dairy - because I'm an empathetic, compassionate, progressive person that wants my wife's son DeQuandrius to be able to live in the best world possible!

Silly anon, DeQuandrius doesn't eat pork! He's a Muslim. Did you know Muhammad was black, just like Jesus, Mozart, and the ancient Egyptians? I swear I learn something new from him every day!

Obvious bait. But for everyone in this thread that's using more than 8% of their brain this morning, there's something to be said for having a lot of diverse sources of protein.

I've been considering doing a sort of No-Meat period every 2~ weeks for a couple months and see if it does anything good for my body.

I can't help but feel as if there's a large portion of people who went vegan or pretend to be vegan on these threads so they can draw more attention to themselves to give there lives more sense of direction and meaning. I know this is anonymous but still
>>
>>41889750

pretty much everything is better. I shit faster but at the same time I shit more and it smells like a true man shit. I feel lighter and stronger at the same time, skin got much better, I'm starting to dislike any processed food and enjoy more simple food, actually even my eyesight has become better lol I guess its because I eat a lot more vitamin a foods, I even smell better... my feet used to smell badly after work but after 6 months of a vegan diet they smell pretty normal. I can better sleep aswell.

Whew, that wasnt so hard now was it? Glad I decided that I am like the biology textbooks taught me and that I am an omnivore.

Suicide is a relatively unpopular option too.
Are you going to kill yourself now? I mean to prove you're a real man

>>41891838

suicide is not an opinion, its an action lol

>>41891922
Well given two choices in a situation and one is suicide it then becomes an option

>getting your protein from a potato
>>
I kill animals and eat them. I like the things they produce. I also eat veg most meals because meat is a luxury and vegies are dank.

Factory farming is gnarly and I understand the hate, but animal husbandry has been around for millennia and can still be done responsibly. I'm happy with a salad, but I still love steak. You can recognize the problems of overconsumption and avoid exacerbating them without having to stop eating animal products all together.

What can I eat other than eggs and potatoes?

I am trying to up my veggie intake but right now I just have spinach or water cress with mayo and some cheese or boiled eggs.

I have fallen in love with baked potatoes too and try to eat fruit which is making cutting far easier than keto or cico on a normal shitty food diet. But how do I eat more veggies into meals? Right now i feel like veg is always a side I prepare.

Got dumped into a Food related Humanities class for college. Learned everything about it from marketing, to health, to the industry, to the environment, everything. Finished the semester and told myself I became too knowledgeable not to make a change. Been vegan for 1 year, hopefully the rest of my life.

Most B12 is manufactured for animal feed (80%, iirc). Taking it ourselves just cuts out the middleman.

>>41894807
You can also get vegan milks fortified with b12. Just need to look at the nutritional labels when you're at the store.

Sweet potatoes and yams make a good, nutrient dense staple starch food; just add some collard greens and maybe a side of red lentils or black eyed peas. Or try rice bowls with all kinds of sauteed/stir fried Asian veggies.

Eggs aren't vegan either.

Try some different bean dishes. Black beans with salsa and guacamole, split pea soup with barley and carrots, lentil tacos, french lentil salad, white beans in pasta sauce, etc.

>how do I eat more veggies into meals? Right now i feel like veg is always a side I prepare.

Stir fry is pretty good. I usually cook mushrooms, zucchini, onion, eggplant, and kale or red cabbage in a pan with soy sauce, sometimes tempeh for extra protein, and mix with whole rice
