Congratulations.......(good choice on the peanut butter too!)

After seeing her do it on the video, it's way less intimidating isn't it?

Good. Hope to see some things you've whipped up and really liked, posted.

Hey Everyone !

This afternoon I had cleaned and made 2 bunches of collard greens. No meat, I used lots of garlic ( minced ) and some olive oil to sautee the garlic in . Them added the greens to cook slowly, so I had some brn rice about 1/2 cup. I admit I was somewhat hungry today . But that satisfied me. Now I'm getting ready to make a fresh fruit smoothie with banana and pineapple, berries, and some PB. Good evening to everyone .... btw I feel great

so far

Hey Kat.....(thats Pittsburgh for Hi)

I eat mostly raw......but and but is the key word here, I have trouble feeling satisfied with hunger, and then I do crazy things like eat 12 peaches.....I am a vegetarian, only because I do not like meat. I especially hate to smell it cook or tear it off a bone. However, I will not *die* if I eat a piece. I do eat dairy, but not alot. Especially milk.

Just trying to explain to you my eating habits.....so if I say I used whey (vegans do use whey, it's dairy) or I had yogurt/again X to a vegan, you'll understand.

I love garlic......in a green smoothie, its actually a little sweet.

YB thanks for replying. For me I have to ease my way threw this, but I'm not too crazy about meat either. I was hungry and my roomie bought these greens and had some brn rice it was something for to add a little substance. I look fwd to learning more here. So what are the powders I need to buy. I too am lactose intolerant n I have type 2 diabetes. But all in all I 'm trying and already eliminating the meat I feel better. Funny I'm not craving sweets or meat .
