Re: Going vegan-

[Guest guest]

,

I don't know whether this works or not. I know some have tried different diets and have done well on them and others haven't. Just like this darn RP. We are all so different!

Take care and hope you hear from others!

Lots of love

, I tried the vegan diet for about 4 months and then I had a

major flare so I dont know if I just didnt give it enough time or

what. Then I became diabetic and they put me on a strict 1200

calorie diet and was having trouble finding something to eat. The

cytoxan made me real nauseated so whatever I could hold down I ate.

Breakfast was hard because you could have no eggs, milk and I couldnt

get a taste for the soy. I found though that meat was really no

problem because know I can take it or leave it. I was thinking about

going back on it just to give it another try. I read I think about

tomatos being bad for arthirits so hey you cant win. I tried the soy

cheese, soy burgers, even soy yogurt but just couldnt handle the

taste. On the web site the lady was cured from RP for doing it so who

knows. One thing I didnt like was everyone was concerned about what

poor little (yea right) could eat. If you went out with friends

or relatives it was a major issue where we went or what I ordered. I

said leave me alone and I will eat a salad and bake potato with no

butter . Every place should have that. I dont like any attention

made to me about being different or toward this RP. I am normal like

anyone else, so I think hahhaa. Good luck if you give it a try .

There is a vegan website with recipes. Let me know if it works for

you. See ya,
