I'm a bit new here but I've recently turned 18 and decided I wanted to do something meaningful especially in terms of compassionate living So I've decided to leap into the vegan world. Actually I'm taking baby steps


I was just looking for some pointers on where to start. Possibly some books and such I can get.
Also, I was active quite a bit when I was younger but have been slacking a bit lately. I'm planning on seeing a nutritionist to get things rolling. I love vegan cooking and its a lot of fun experimenting. Plus the food is a lot tastier and I feel better knowing I didn't take the life of or take advantage of an animal to eat. My mom isn't keen on the idea, but I'm out to prove her wrong, I actually made a mac n cheese recipe the other day without dairy and she was surprised at how awesome it tasted despite having no cheese!
Anyways, if anyone has any info, articles, helpful sites, books, magazines, things like that it would be super helpful!
P.s I am a yoga addict and love weights, but I'm worried I wont be able to sustain an active lifestyle where I work potentially work out 5 days a week, sometimes 6. I'm still eating meat for the time being but I'm looking to make a full switch in the next year.
Let me know if anyone has any suggestions and look forward to hearing you all!
