Originally posted by Buddy People judge the **** out of me for being a vegetarian. I don't try to mention it to anyone but people realize when I go out to eat and I work in the grocery industry so a meat topic will be brought up. I became one by choice when I was 5 because I didn't think it was right that people killed animals to eat when I could just find other things. My mom told me I milked a cow at this farm and the cow looked sad which made me start to hate animal products Throughout my childhood I was against the concept of eating meat for its moral reasons, but as I've grown older I simply don't think about those anymore. I just can't eat meat because it's so foreign to me. I've accidentally eaten it a few times, and it just didn't seem right to me. Those few times I got nauseous and actually threw up.

Originally posted by Save My Life I will never understand why vegetarians/vegans get flack for just being vegetarian/vegan. It is honestly the most stupidest argument to have. I applaud people who choose to be vegetarian or vegan because it really takes a lot.

It's because people know we're in the right but are insecure. It's honestly like the real life version of ATRL stanning, shading, and dragging - the "plants have feelings, migrant workers are only oppressed by vegans, and lol bacon" stans will drag and shade us, and vice versa. I just can't escape all this saltiness.

yes! love her, although i'd wish she'd post more often.

another way to find amazing recipes is instagram. there are so many amazing vegan/vegetarian posters that post loads of healthy and yummy recipes and have amazing blogs that are not that known!

unfortunately I don't know much about it but a quick google search said that it seems to be pretty easy. just make sure to eat a bit of protein and healthy fats (such as nuts or avocados). you might also want to look into protein shakes

you're welcome

hmmm that's usually what people feel like when they try to stay on their old diet and just switch meat for tofu. does she also consume a lot of convenience junk food?

she should check online, a vegan diet can have a lot of variety (in fact i eat more things now than i did back in my meat eating days) but it does require a bit of research, planning and meal prep tbh

Originally posted by KillingYourCareer Don't let uneducated fools like that youtuber fool you. 50 bananas a day? What? That's a huge amount of potassium which is toxic for human body.

Originally posted by bleuwaffle The lethal dose of potassium chloride is 2500mgs per kg of body weight in 30 seconds. There are ~400mgs of potassium per banana. You do the math sis, it's impossible to overdose on bananas. I mean, a ****ing potato has more potassium than a banana.

Originally posted by BreatheGaga People just don't understand that the amount of calories doesn't matter at ALL when eating low fat foods that contain a lot of carbs! A low fat high carb vegan diet gives u the ability to eat as much as you want basically, and still lose weight. It's going to take time, obviously. The reason why a lot vegans fail is because they eat too little, and they stack up with all the wrong foods that won't make you satisfied. Freelee is living proof of the fact that a low fat high carb vegan diet works

Originally posted by BreatheGaga Low fat high carb is the best thing ever. You basically eat foods with no fats but high carbs, and you can eat as much as you want. Up to 5000 calories a day and still lose weight. Look up freeleethebananagirl on youtube. She's a low fat high carb vegan and eats like 50 bananas a day etc.

Originally posted by Ryan Rivers I 100% want to become a vegetarian but two things stop me. Beans. I've seen so many vegetarian meals/sides that have any kind of beans, and I hate beans with a passion. And plus I live in Canada, during the winter time, fruits and vegetables are so damn expensive that it's kinda not worth it, when you can get a frozen meat lasagna or something

freelee's way of eating is totally whack

being thin =/= being healthy

please eat everything in moderation
