| | Thanks very much for this kick start to my vegetarian life! | I loved the help and support that the Veggie Challenge gave me through the daily e-mails! All the information was so great, and really helped me to realize everything about being vegetarian. Being a teenager, I had little support from my family, but once they realized that I did have reliable help, and that I was serious about making the change, they did start to help. All week, my dad made an effort to cook separate meals for me when I was too busy with school to cook on my own. I work at a grocery store, so I had easy access to extra veggies, and different soy, and tofu products. I enjoyed learning different ways to try and get my protein, and learned that I really like peanut butter. Thanks very much for this kick start to my vegetarian life! – Keira, age 16-24, Mississauga, Ontario
