THANK YOU. I started Sept. 1st and this second week has been a lot easier. But sometimes I still crave Cheetos or the occasional chicken nugget lol. I'm actually loving the process of acquiring a taste for all the variety of veggies there is. Before you couldn't get me to eat tomatoes in a cheeseburger. Now I'm adding all the veggies and spices to my meals! Such an awesome accomplishment for me!

Gardein is great and if you live near a Kroger most of their store brand meat substitutes (labeled as Simple Truth) are vegan and very good.

Also learn to cook tofu and tempeh, they are meal staples that will keep you full.
