Hi
are there any vegans or vegetarians here? I am vegetarian (almost vegan but not completely vegan either so something in between and a very healthy one) and I really struggle with people being very mean and negative about it, especially someone in my OH's family I feel like I constantly have to justify myself every single time they visit I am dreading it. Meat and dairy makes me feel extremely sluggish, tired and constipated, why would I want to torture myself? My eczema and migraines have completely stopped since changing my food habits. I am always full of energy and I haven't been sick for 2 years, even when everyone around me gets sick and my blood levels are great. Sometimes however I feel like giving up just to fit in, I find it hard to be put on to the spot because of my food choices!
How do you deal with the pressure from other meat-eaters who have an issue with your eating habits?? or am I the only one who comes across this?
