Answers:
great question!

my most positive experience was when i recently took my family to the grocery to show them all of the things i could eat that they eat already!.!.!.!.!.!.!.i've been asking them to let me go veg since i was a kid and they were never supportive, and after that trip they now support me fully!! i was so excited to finally have their approval!.

the biggest negative so far really, really upset me!. it was when i first started!. i used to have yogurt almost every day with breakfast and never thought to read the ingredients bc it was such a habit for me to eat it!. after a couple of weeks of being veg i noticed that there was gelatin in it and got so upset that i didn't have an appetite the rest of the day!. it wasn't that big of a deal, i had just been trying so hard and it was a big setback for me!.

anyway, i'm past that now, and i like to focus on the positive!. being vegetarian has been a HUGE improvement in my life and i'm thankful every day for making the decision to go veg!. there's a new high for me every time i think about the animals we're all saving =DWww@FoodAQ@Com

Like everyone else said - loadsa positive experiences everyday!.

I love when I get positive responses from other people - like my boyfriend's mother; when I told her I was goin vegan she said "Good for you!" and my boyfriend, committed meatarian as he was, is now pesco-vegetarian and has even started feeling bad about what he used to have to do on the farm he worked at years ago - result!

Negative experiences are only when I get negative responses from other people but luckily this doesn't happen too often!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

My most positive experiences would be the ones where people tell me that I am doing something great!. Sorry, I don't have a definitive moment!.

My grandfather just passed away so I've been thinking about him a lot and he told me a few weeks back, "That's the way to go!.!.!.nutritious foods!." I know that statement sounds simple, but it means the world to me coming from him!.

My friend has told me that I am his biggest inspiration, especially since I've become vegan and more aware of human, cultural, and political situations around the world!. I would never think that I had a positive impact on someone but he assures me I have!. He still eats meat but has given up beef and pork!. He wants to one day go vegan!.

I'm so proud of everyone!.

My mother brags to me over the phone that she ate an all-vegan dinner that night, which is cute!.

There are a lot of positives!.

Negatives would be just fleeting moments of someone telling me I'm crazy, or not being able to find anything on a menu!. But those things I can work around!.

Thanks for letting me share!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are so many, it's really hard to come up with just one!.
The first time I ate scrambled tofu and tempeh bacon was awesome though!. The first time I made a vegan cake & realised I could still eat really 'cakey' cakes whilst being vegan!.
Most of mine are food related because I am such a foodie, but I also get a tremendous sense of pride in myself when I think that I am not contributing to animal suffering!.!.!.I don't mean that in a preachy way - nor is my intention to put down non-vegans!.!.!.this is just how I feel in myself!.

Negatives!.!.!.I think most are the stupid/ignorant comments that you get from non-vegans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Wow, I don't think I can pick just one positive experience!.!.!. after all, I do eat three delicious meals a day!

Every day vegan is a great day!. I'm at peace with myself and God's creation, and I'm one with the earth!.

Negative experiences!.!.!. I don't think I can think of one!

Positive Experiences: When I provide vegan food for someone (whether I cook it or bring vegan treats), and they love it!. When someone does meatless days or enjoys veg*an meals!.

Negative Experiences: A couple of family vacations where I struggled to get enough to eat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

My most positive experience is not being sick all the time any more!. My most negative experience is certain mean friends and family who forget how sick I used to be and give me grief about what I eat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I love veggie wedgie's answer!.

Every day, I feel good inside!. Being veg really makes me feel happy!. I don't feel any negativity right now :)

Blessings!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

my best moment was that my grandparents decided to go vegetarian because I inspired them! That was way awesome!. I can't think of a negative!Www@FoodAQ@Com
