Interior West Coasters where are you?? :P I'm excited about starting this and making the transition but it's hard when I don't know anyone around me that shares the lifestyle.

If there's anyone out there even remotely close that would be amazing to keep in touch with and talk to. My boyfriend said he would help me as much as possible but he's addicted to milk :P I would love to hear some encouraging words from people and their difficulties when first starting.

Yayy!! I'm so happy to find someone else! I mean I just started looking but I'd love some help. I was introduced to another veg on halloween and I think I'm going to meet up with her for lunch or something. My boyfriend and a bunch of other friends go to UBCO and I love how this town isn't THAT big.

I think I'll just have to start introducing more foods into my diet as time goes along. I just hate thinking about spendind money and you totally understnad the low funds situation I'm sure! :P

Do you know of any good restaurants in town?

Hey Kristine!! Sorry .. when I first posted on here I didn't notice the "subscribe to" box at the bottom so I didn't see these posts. But now that i'm on here every day I can see them :D I've definitely figured a lot more out. My boyfriend just recently went vegetarian and he's s happy. I love hearing him talk about my cooking and say how less gross he feels after a meal.

I bought a bunch of cookbooks to help me out with ideas. I just made mac and cheese last night from the Veganomicon cookbook using nutritional yeast. It was amazing. I've been vegan for about 2 months now and I couldn't be happier. It's a completely different grocery buying cycle though and it's taking some gettnig used to. When i ate mostly non kind foods i could go shopping almost once a month or less. Now I find i'm at the grocery store almost every week. I still need to be eating more veggies. I love my starches and carbs. Rice, potatoes, breads.. I'm getting used to it. I love cooking!!!

Hope you all are doing great! We should all get togeher for coffee or tea or something :P

Hey, I live in Kelowna as well! I am so looking forward to meeting some more vegans around town, as most of my friends' are meat eaters. I would love to exchange recipes. Cheers!

Hey Everyone!

I am a 'flirting' vegan and I would love to make the big switch and take the plunge! Anyone know of any amazing restaurants around Kelowna for vegans? Also, I am looking for a really good low sodium miso soup recipe. Let me know if you can help!
