About Me: I love animals, music, wrestling, laughing, greg, the summer, and howard stern.
How I became a veggie: I always hated eating meat...the fact that it took me so long to chew thru something was so gross. Plus I LOVE animals, why the hell am I eating them? But I was constantly told that if I don't eat meat, I'll lose even more weight.
5 years ago I was diagnosed with gluten intolerance, and decided to really educate myself about nutrition, and I adhered to a strict gluten-free diet, and eliminated meat. A few years ago, I met my bf, and he helped inform me about veganism (he's been vegan since 91). And that's when I eliminated dairy and eggs, as well as any product using/testing on animals.
I'm a gluten free vegan, and will never turn back.
