Ok, well at first it can be challenging! It is just SO much better for your body overall, and the animals!.
Three is a really good book called "The Vegan Source book!." I think you should buy it or check it out from the library or something! It is really good!
Ok, nutrition can be a little hard since you are still growing, thats why a multi-vitamin is good to make sure you stay healthy!.
Here is a vegan food pyramid- http://veganfoodpyramid!.com/
See, if you follow that you get all the things you need!
I know there will probably be troll answers here telling you not to, but you are making a great choice!!
Everyone is gonna make a big deal out of protein though! Its annoying! I finally yelled at someone to do some research before talking to be about my diet because what do you know, protein in nuts, legumes, beans, and more!!
Yea, yelling does not end well, no matter how pissed you get!.
Going vegan really helps you, the enviornment, the animals, and feed the hungry!
Recipes, hhhmmmm

It's always a good idea to take a multivitamin every day!. Nuts and green leafy vegetables are a good source of calcium, as are other things (you should look into it)!. Eat healthy foods, fruits and vegetables, whole grains, etc!. and avoid junk food and you'll be just as healthy as a meat eater!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
no it is not,
it would probably be best to take a vitamin, cause most teenagers don't eat the healthiest!.
but if you ate healthy and a variety of vegetables and fruits, you wouldn't need that vitamin at all!.
just make sure you eat foods fortified with b12
hammer: that is the point we aren't in a hungry jungle,Www@FoodAQ@Com
