I've been vegetarian for a little while now but would like to make the switch to veganism! Does anybody have any tips for what to eat, wear, etc? Thanks!|||It's really not hard at all!!

I'm vegan and have been so for more than a year, you'll
be surprised how good you feel.

Be sure to get enough protein (my meals are generally
based around protein, whether it be from beans, tofu or
some other source) and be aware of animal products in
food! Know of suffixes and prefixes to watch out for. It's
easy once you get the hang of it, and I have an app on my
phone that lists a lot of ingredients to look out for.

Wear: well, just wear things that don't have suede/leather/silk, etc.
There are several brands that have organic/recyclable materials for
clothing and even though you don't NEED to buy them, as a vegan
I have found myself buying a lot of clothes with those materials.

If I think of any other advice I'll edit this, or you can always message me :)|||wikipedia has information on veganism at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veganism

I went vegan in November and it was the best thing I ever did, despite not having support from most of my friends and family.
My best tip is to make your own foods as much as possible. Almost everything that's packaged contains animal products. I've even seen lactose in one brand of potato chips (to make them more "creamy" apparently).
Check out the website below for some great recipes and tips.|||The first couple of months are hard, after that its pretty much plain sailing. Ordering in restaurants and travel can be a pain though.
