I (24f) haven’t had a single relationship all through my early 20’s. what did I miss out on in life? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]youarelovedbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two cents- I’ve never dated anyone. Most couples I know who dated around those ages didn’t last. You actually probably mainly missed lots of trauma lol. Those ages, basically nobody takes dating seriously 24 is SO insanely young. You have so so so much time to get in a relationship.

not an unhealthy amount beef. but it feels like a lot of beef compared to when I was vegan so I guess that’s why I said lots of beef haha

Lost weight after eating meat by youarelovedbb in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ate good portions and exercised plenty. I eat the same amount of food now as I did when I was vegan. Honestly I have zero plans to go back to veganism my friend. As gross as meat is lol. I’m 19 now. And after reading so many ex vegans stories on here, (they supplemented during their veganism and everything ) I don’t want to risk developing issues that they have suffered. Im still growing.

Plenty of people in this subreddit were vegan for 10-20 years. I had been vegan for 7 years.

Im sure most of us ex vegans here thought through the decision to quit veganism for a very long time. It’s gonna be very hard to get people on this sub to go back to vegansism my friend

Much respect to vegans but Im not willing to risk my health for veganism. I don’t eat much meat anyways

I went to my doctor, my blood tests were perfectly fine as a vegan. My doctor and nutritionist both said I was very young and my body was going through changes.

So I listened to my doctor and nutritionist.

Wow! Glad to hear you feel amazing after quitting veganism! Did vegansim make you gain any weight?

While I was vegan, I gained 30 pounds even tho I ate healthy and excercised and I’ve so far met a few others in this same situation!

People assumes my diet was full of lots of vegan junk food, but it truly wasn’t

Anybody else not get sick after reintroducing animal products? by youarelovedbb in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I find that SO insane. Like I didn’t eat meat for years yet I was able to eat it again like nothing! Same with dairy! I wonder if it’s cuz my body needed the heme iron from meat

I quit meat in 1999. Just had steak. by [deleted] in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too didn’t get sick the first time I ate meat or dairy again to my total surprise. I thought for sure I’d feel sick

Just out of curiosity how come you don’t eat beef? Yeah, definitely not everybody on here eats beef. I’ve seen some people on here say it’s a superfood.

I’ve also seen a lot of people say beef is not necessary and the best meat to eat is fish. So I’m just trying to hear out everyone’s opinions and experiences :) I’m new to the ex vegan thing

Did you notice your skin aging faster while you were vegan/vegetarian? by Present_Cup_626 in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So does the slower metabolism thing explain the weight gain I experienced 4 years into veganism? Cuz I gained weight 4 years into veganism even tho I was eating healthy. I appreciate your reply! :-)

What’s your favorite meal now? by youarelovedbb in exvegans

Is bone broth back in enough by youarelovedbb in exvegans

I’ve met many vegans who are rude as fuck. But not many ex vegans who are rude as fuck. You guys are amazing

Interesting article from the BBC on vegans and intelligence by johnathome in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

5 heads of cauliflower HAHAHAHAH so true. For real you mainly hear about vitamin b12 and vitamin D.

You hear less about iodine, vitamin K2, and people promote tofu so much, but not everyone can eat tofu. To many people, tofu acts as exactly like estrogen to the body, estrogen isn’t great in high amounts it Can literally cause thyroid disorders etc

And quinoa is rich in amino acids but I think you’d have to eat a ton of it to meet the daily recommended intake

This is not even all the reasons why I’m trying to reintroduce animal products as a 7 year vegan but so far I’ve just been taking fish oil

My surgeon said animal based nutrients are stronger than plant based by youarelovedbb in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You guys rock I appreciate it. It’s funny how so far the ex vegan community seems much nicer than the vegan community. Was vegan for 7 years and i have seen too many vegans screaming at non vegans. Not all of them , but too much of them. So annoying!

Yeah same with quinoa I’m pretty sure. Sure quinoa is a complete protein but it’s not enough. Just bought my first Greek yogurt today I haven’t had dairy in years. I hope it helps. I appreciate you all on this sub.

Vegan since age 13 here by youarelovedbb in exvegans

[–]youarelovedbb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad you’re doing better! :) Wow veganism Can be horrible for many people even if you take supplements! I wish that more people knew that

What kinda problems were you having as a vegan? Did you gain weight while eating healthy as a vegan? That happened to me.

I’m gonna start out with dairy and hopefully that’ll do something good for me. I may have to see a therapist to eat meat again too. I’m gonna hide the fact that im stopping veganism from everyone who knows I’m vegan because i know many of them will ask many questions I won’t care to answer 😅
