Yes they are! First time I've ever been admitted...my gf has lotsa problems so we are in hospital alot. I'm normally the fit healthy one. If my problem doesn't clear up I may think about going raw...simply because it is a freaking miracal lifestyle and when you eat like that you feel great. I really need to feel great soon
Healthy day for you I see!

I had a veggie pizza without cheese for lunch in a restaurant. It's my first time in a restaurant since becoming vegan so it was nice to finally eat out. Afterwards the waitress asked "was it ok?" in this unsure way and I told her it was great. She said she'd never served a pizza like that before but it looked good and she was going to try it.
My internship supervisor took me out for my last day so I told her. It's my first time talking about it with a non-vegan. She went on about calcium and iron but after talking to her she said I was being smart about it and that was good. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Good practice for tell family and friends.

Mmm, I like the sound of your breakfast Emzy. Sorry about my vacuous comment earlier (hospitals are horrible - DUH) - I blame exam stress and severe lack of sleep. Seriously, though, my last veg*n hospital experience consisted of a helluva lot of jam sandwiches. Wow, I would love to go raw as well, but I have 0% willpower and basically I'm just too darned greedy for it...I guess my days would be healthy if there wasn't so much of the bloody stuff there *oinks*
