Going Vegan
Heather, i think it's wonderful that you're going vegan, and I commend you on your willpower. I went vegan for awhile last year, because there was a chance that it might help my health problems. (IBS among them.) It helped at first, but then it stopped helping, so now I am mostly vegan with occasional fish lapses. And yeah, I still eat honey too- every day.
I am really glad that I dropped the dairy, though, and I'll never go back. Although I haven't given up ice cream (I just never found a satisfying substitute) I no longer fill myself with millk and cheese, and boy am I glad. I feel so much better; no "food coma", no bloating and tiredness after a big meal. My energy is higher, my tummy is much less upset, and I have more energy; I just feel better.
So, here's a resounding "Go Girl!" from me. Good for you!
