I am attempting to switch to a vegan lifestyle. I have tried
before, with no success....I think my downfall was the lack of
satiety with vegan food, and I don't care for many of the
substitutes, such as soy. I also cannot seem to let go of
cheese! I have read Colin Campbell's China Study and that
floored me in regards to what he found. I have also read
Michael Pollan's In Defense of Food, and have started reading
Becoming Vegan by Melina. I am also about 150 lbs overweight,
and have tried every diet in the book, including considering
weight loss surgery. So, as you can see I am a bit of a mess
:) The more I read about the benefits of a vegan lifestyle,
and how it is based on solid science, the more compelling it
is to move into that lifestyle.

Any suggestions for assistance with this transition would be
welcome!
