That is essentially like a cleanse. Good luck. I tried to do it for a week, and it seemed like everyone on my block was outside grilling delicious hamburgers. Repeatedly. In December.

Veganism is not even remotely healthy.

You don't need to eat just plants. If you're trying to avoid red meat, throw in some eggs, cheese, poultry or fish. It's not good to avoid eating plants or meat because our bodies are adapted to (and dependent on) eating things we've grown familiar with over the past few thousand years.
If you're concerned about ingredients, just go organic and non-GMO if you can help it. The less modern tampering, the better.

I'd decided that (given my finances- thanks a lot, Whole Foods!) veganism is not conducive to my life, so I pledged to eat a salad a day and expunge bad things when I can, and one at a time. I think people get too into fad diets and wonder why they feel like crap or go broke. The smoothie thing does work, but it's labor-intensive, expensive, and if you have a crap blender like me, hard to clean (you really need a Bullet or something with multiple canisters, or you'll be washing it 10 times a day).Ultimately, it's far easier to have a salad for a meal.
Even if your don't make friends with it.

Veganism is not even remotely healthy. Um...you're completely wrong? Sorry, I just mean that you have no factual evidence to support a completely baseless claim.

Well, the first step is letting everyone that you might possibly come into contact with that you're a vegan, so I'd say you're off to a good start.

Sorry, I just mean that you have no factual evidence to support a completely baseless claim. you have to know what the heck you're doing. every vegan I've ever met wasn't smart enough to compensate for lost nutrients. That's still a far cry from "veganism isn't remotely healthy." It can be healthy. Very healthy in fact, but like any other diet you have to know what you're doing since it's such a dramatic shift from the typical omnivorous diet. I still don't get why they hate on honey, though. Yeah, it's technically an animal product, but the overwhelming majority of honey comes from responsible beekeepers who know that endangering a hive of an extremely important species by extracting too much of it is a bad thing for both the planet and for business. And bees just naturally produce it on their own (for their own consumption even) without human intervention. We just collect the excess that is otherwise unneeded by the bees. Though I can't stand vegans who try to force their pets to adapt to their diets. It's animal cruelty, especially for cats since they're obligate carnivores. They NEED meat to survive.

Pizza Pat is a strong proponent of healthy eating. Some times Pizza Pat has been known to go a little crazy and order the Vegetarian Pizza! Those crazy kooks even put carrots of all things on it can you believe it carrots! Pizza Pat couldn't but Pizza Pat has seen it and eaten it. Maybe if it would help with your diet you could make a vegan pizza yummy and healthy.

Veganism is not even remotely healthy. Vegan's have a longer lifespan than everyone else. I am not a vegan, but it is clearly healthy for you.

It doesn't help that I live so close to DC either. Everything is more expensive.
