vegan in need of friends!! help!

i don't have any friends on this site hardly and i wish i had more...

especially since i don't know any other vegans in my area....

would anyone be willing to befriend a lonely calorie counter from st. louis ?

maybe take me under their wing and teach me more about veganism???

[god, this must sound silly. i'm sorry...  ]

You're sort of in my neighborhood!    I'm about midway between STL and Chicago.  Do you have any specific questions about being a vegan?

I think it's a learning experience for all of us.  I went vegan a couple of years ago, and love it.  Before that, I was an O/L veggie for almost 30 yrs., so I've been around the veggie/natural food scene for quite awhile.

I marked you as a friend.

Hi I just joined calorie count, but I  have been a vegan for about a year now and would love to answer ay questions you have. 

I am in Chicago now, but I am originally from the stl area. I would recommend The Shangri-La Diner in STL on Cherokee street (kind of a rough, but up and coming area)

it is (mostly) vegetarian, but is vegan friendly.  A fun eclectic place to take your friends or family. And it is super good.

Hai!

I am not a vegan, but ::hugs:: all the same and good luck with your veganism : )

I hope you find lots of friends who can help you out with this.  I would like to become 100% vegetarian, eventually, but it's tough with a meatatarian (f-you wendy's) like my husband.
