Introduction

Hi! Glad to have so many meetups happening.

If you are a vegetarian or vegan, please share with us what motivated you to make this kind move.

Seeing and hearing a lecture from nutritionist and author Brenda Davis debunking the myths about vegan lifestyle was one. Going to hear Dr. Esselstyn was the final deciding factor for me make the change to 98% no oil plant based diet.

What is your favorite vegetable?

It's got to be peppers, as you get all the varieties and I love so many kinds. Squash also covers lots of varieties. Zuchini is so versatile and who doesn't like butternut squash?

What kind of vegetarian are you? Lacto-ovo? Vegan?

My goal is to never eat a tortured animal product as food again. I am currently following the Plant Strong no oil vegan plan and it is great.

If you are not a vegetarian just yet, how are you making the transition?

I am committed to being the choice maker in meal preparation and finding more ways to help others eat healthier as well.

What Maureen is saying about this Meetup Group

India Delight was just what Dr. Don ordered. Thx Don!

  • Going No-oil has had dramatic results for me. Since 4/1/12 I have lost 22 lbs with blood work in normal ranges. Sarah noticed that her weight seems to be more stable. As for general health, I felt good prior to new diet so no real change there. I am looking forward to my next checkup to see how the values change if any.

  • Hello Maureen,
    I am so sorry to hear about your mother. There is no need to apologize for being with her instead of here. My prayers are with her that she will improve. I took care of my mother when she was not doing well and understand how difficult it is. Take care. Hope to see you soon.

  • Hi Maureen, so glad to see you scheduled that event for 3/31. I unfortunately have been super busy and unable to coordinate any events. I do have plans that day so may only be able to stop by for 1/2 hour or so but will try to do that if I can. Hope its a great event, as I'm sure it will be! Hope all is well with you!
