CED 2010 Spring Meet
All about health. 
Not so much like PETA. They take things a little too far! I have my beliefs, & it's not all animal related.

Ah, thats good. So, how do you get a balance of protein? Do you drink milk and stuff to get calcium? Sorry for all the prodding questions, I am a nursing student, and have quite a previous background in nutrition, but have never found a Vegan that is Vegan for anything besides "oohhhh the poor animals".

No worries! I get my calcium from coconut, almond, &/or rice milk. I get my protein from raw unsalted assorted nuts. I'm trying to get back into college. I'd like to get into the medical field of some sort. Always loved Science & the human anatomy. Would like to try & get into either the chiropractor field or nutritionist.
I just prefer to keep away from meats. A lot of my fruit & veggies are all organic as well. Coconut milk is actually better for you than cow milk. It has very good fat in it. I chose to not drink soy milk. Not that great for men, plus I have too much estrogen in my body as it is, haha. I don't eat balanced meals during the day. Just consists of couple pieces of fruit, carrots, nuts, & some salad. I don't eat any condiments (ketchup, salad dressing, nothing!) Everything is plain & raw. Nothing cooked. When you cook foods, you tend to kill all the natural enzymes that help aid in digestion, & also kills it's nutritional value. I'm a bit crazy, I know.
Eek man! You might wanna eat a balanced meal. Its totally possible without eating meat, and its much healthier than just eating whatever here and there. I could go into a book on all this, really, but I will spare everyone else, lol
