I was vegetarian for years, before taking the steps to really be vegan. But, if I knew what I know now to do, I would have been vegan faster, earlier, and I really want that I would have been. I found delicious ways, that matters a lot for changing, but with finding those, including all the use of hummus that I made, it was still very important to find the healthy way, to go on with it, without wavering. And I found it a bit more than a couple of years of certainly being vegan, I just did not know if this was a healthy way for me. I wanted a healthy way, too. I had been using hummus almost all along, before this, and what I found was using whole foods, avoiding modified things like white bread, or even wheat bread, but just having whole grain bread without added things that were not just natural, even preservatives, and still no animal products. It can be any vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts and seeds. Everything I eat is from these, besides occasional dried seaweed. Medication and additives should not be needed when there is this way to eat that is helpful to our best health still possible and will not add to weight gain but help us toward our natural healthy weight. It is this whole food plant based eating, without adding other things, that will be so good for us.
