[QUOTE="Funky Mum, post: 82235, member: 20488"] Hi All, another 'proper' veggie here :D Not diabetic but have IGT so will be sticking around here for help and support :D I need to revamp totally my diet, I've been doing Slimming World and being veggie it means that its mainly a high carb diet plan. So now I have to turn it all on its head, it wasn't working that well for me anyway as I can eat my bodyweight in carbs :oops: So day 1 for me and will be collecting recipes and going through my cupboards. As a veggie I've never felt restricted in my diet (well money being the only restriction as we eat a alot of Quorn and that can be pricey) I tried being veggie at school but couldn't stick to it, then one day in the middle of a chinese pork steak I thought how juicy it was and how that juice once kept the animal alive :( So that was that, a lightbulb moment back in Feb 1990. I just think why should an animal die for me to have a meal when there are other things I can eat. 3 of my kids are also veggie, the oldest (18) I bought up to make his own decisions and he'll eat a little but not much. The 3 littlies ( 6, 5 and 2) are all veggie and my husband converted when he met me :twisted: His choice I hasten to add! So, nice to meet you all and look forward to sharing recipes etc!
