hi, I am deeply sickened (to the point of not eating) over global animal holocaust. Watched a few things on youtube etc. and will not eat meat again, nor go out my way for animal by-products and do my bit for campaign and other things-ongoing. I am creative and wanting to connect and expand in the vegan community as I am sticking with Veganism, mostly for ethical animal liberation issues first and foremost. Love food-cook well. Am Passionate. o yeah, and middle aged (not that it truly matters for the most).
Bless...

I've been an animal lover since birth, a vegetarian for 18 years and have become vegan in the past year. I hate the exploitation of animals and believe people need to be exposed to the atrocities that these beautiful creatures suffer at human hand.
Just beginning my journey as a vegan, still have some slip-ups, but my body isn't liking it when I do. I can feel the benefits. I just need more information to be confident in providing my body with the nutrition it needs.
I work as a early childhood educator in an evening service. I enjoys my days at home gardening, sewing and fixing the house.

How long have you been vegan? Still new at it.
My name is sarah, I'm 25 years old, a single mother of 3 young children and have always loved animals and nature.
It's only in the last couple of years that I began to question myself. How can I claim to be a fighter of animal rights when I eat them?
Also concerned about the environmental impact humans are having on the earth, I googled it.
I watched 'Earthlings' and that was it for me. No more flesh will pass my lips.
I'm finding being vegetarian quite easy to do, but my ultimate goal is to become a vegan eater.

Peace.

Most of my childhood I saw my mother in and out of hospital struggling with health and digestion issues - so I decided in my early 20's to look into how to eat healthy to prevent getting to this extreme myself. This lead me through a very militant vegan bf, then the blood type diet, food combining, vegetarianism, veganism - and now I am also approx 80% raw... it was a natural progression as I found myself becoming more and more in-tune with my body!

I am what you call a, "lazy vegan." I prefer to eat foods that are delicious, and ideally nutritious, but let's face it I'll eat mock chicken nuggets over bok choy any day. I went vegan because I can't stand the atrocities committed against animals, and I stick to it for the same reasons.. but damn I love BBQ sauce.

But I do dream of opening up my very own bicycle cafe where one can take their bike to get it fixed and have a meal and a cuppa while they wait.

I am an entrepreneurial business person who loves health, non-violence, honesty, kindness and dignity. I am nearly vegan. I seek to live as God designed us to, in the Garden of Eden, where no human, animal, fish or bird ate meat. Humans ate only fruit, nuts and seeds, and cared for every living thing.
Interests:
Health, bushwalking, gymnasium, Christian spirituality, intelligent discussion, cultural pursuits, entrepreneurial business involvements. My passion is to reveal to the world the real truth of ‘Christianity’, true relationship with our Creator, (without ‘churchianity, religiosity or denominationalism’), and the absolutely amazing eternity God promises His children who are those who truly love Him and live in relationship with Him.
Personality:
Warm, outgoing, confident, friendly, extroverted, gregarious, positive, intelligent, interesting and interested, dignified, affectionate, imaginative, charismatic, well educated, well travelled, articulate, enthusiastic.
About me:
I am slim, athletic and healthy with a young, vital, vibrant outlook & attitude. Kind, loving, passionate, trustworthy, trusting and a gentleman. People respond warmly to me and enjoy my company and say I have a good sense of humour, vitality and a young nature.
I enjoy people and interaction with intelligent, meaningful, interesting, deep, and philosophical conversations. I seek self improvement. I enjoy good theatre, ballet, art etc. I love being active, I value integrity, dignity and wisdom and admire excellence. I love quiet reflective times, walking in nature, sharing sunsets, sharing every good aspect of life. I really appreciate beauty & the natural, simple things in life.

Hi all :). Been a vegetarian for around five years. I was also slightly allergic to dairy but still kept having it every now and then. I decided to go vegan around a month ago but i wanted to get the ins and outs of the lifestyle before I changed over. I wanted to make sure I was fully educated before I commited. Although I havent changed my wardrobe yet I have decided to change that over time. So far I am loving the change and excited about feeling better physically and mentally.

Turning vegan after serious consideration where meat/eggs/milk was coming from and how it was produced. Have a non vegan family, but hope to convert at least one family meal per week to vegan.
I have been vegetarion since May 2007, and actually started as vegan then, but found it too hard to sustain (Often working away from hometown). Since then I would say I am 95% vegan, very occasionally eating eggs and cheese, and drinking cow's milk in my coffee once a day. I would really like to be 100% vegan, for ecological reasons, including energy resource use in the light of peak oil and energy descent; for health; and for ethics. My 3yr old is 95% vegetarion (not vegan) and I would like him to grow up being used to veganism, so he can make an informed choice later. I am interested in eventually going RAW!

I (Anne) am almost vegan ie cook entirely vegan but accasionally have some dairy if at other people's places or there is nothing else edible on offer. I have been vegetarian (mainly vegan) for about 53 years. Robert is vegetarian, avoids milk but not so careful about ingredients that could be egg or milk derived. We do not find it convenient to be in the city on Friday evenings often but like to catch up with vegan friends when we can be there.

My partner Sarah gave me the strength and her superb cooking skills to become vegetarian almost 10 years ago, and for that I will be forever grateful. I love being vegetarian, and cook almost exclusively vegan meals at home but I do find it difficult to avoid dairy when eating out with friends or family. My beautiful and loyal companion Sox and Mark Rowlands' "The Philosopher and the Wolf" have rekindled my interest in animal ethics and probably have inadvertently reinforced my tendencies towards misanthropy as well...
Happy vegetarian who's interested in the vegan diet and loves baking !

I have just become vegan after 2 years of teetering on the edge. It just felt right for me and what really changed my mind was reading a book many of may have read called "skinny bitch". This book talks about the practices of slaughterhouses and the treatment of animals in general. I found it interesting but disturbing and then looked on the PETA website, some of their videos are really upsetting and I found difficult to watch.

I became a vegetarian 25 years ago and vegan for the last 4 years. I dont live in Adelaide but in a largeish town in south australia near the border where I feel completely isolated in my thinking and people often make it their mission to convince me why I am wrong and to conform. No-one said swimming against the tide would be easy - when has it ever? The right decision is not always popular and the popular decision is not always right...thats for sure!

Lifelong vegetarian, I have been vegan in the past for five years, though not recently. I am looking to becoming vegan again and am also interested in raw foods.
My partner and I (Steven Lord) are passionate animal rights people. We also love to know all about where our food is sourced from and love slow food. We also love to discuss the green-veg*n connection. We love food co-ops and trading.

long time vegetarian. struggling vegan need help and guidance. well read on vegan books, internet sites. member of PETA , ETA/VSSA, ANIMAL AUST. Fairly reclusive, I feel isolated and helpless in the heartbreaking and sickening treatment of animals in experiments, product testing and general treatment of animals to live export and consumption. To quote "There is nothing glamorous about chewing on the corpse of a tortured animal". Would like to chat to like minded people and discover vegan restaurants. partial to a good drop of red wine, a good laugh and great live bands.

Hi, my name is Sally. I am 8 weeks pregnant. just picked up a book at the library about pregnancy & had a lot in there about whats in our food. Also a fair bit on animal cruelty, i was disgusted, so decided to go full vegan. have tried vegetarian before, but turned back. Whilst I have been pregnant, when I have eaten meat it hasn't agreed with me & the baby, so decided that for my baby, to protect it from all the nasty stuff I've ultimately made the decision. I look forward to attending at some stage & meeting more vegans. :-)

Hi,
I have been a Vegetarian for 20 years and a Vegan for three. I work in the IT industry.

After all of these years I am sick of mixing with carnivours and would like to start mixing with lioke minded people.
