I'm conflicted about eating meat / being vegetarian / vegan.
I wonder if being vegan is like being on any other journey -- we come to it at a certain time in our life, leave it, come back to it in a different place . . . .

that makes sense. i have had this conflict since i my teens, and it affects my diet in waves, also. i've never been strictly vegan, but close: lacto-ovo-vegetarian, light on the lacto-ovo component. i was sensitive to milk back then too.
... i was quite sensitive to milk all my life in US and caribbean, but not here!

must be something in the cow-food.

I don't eat enough veggies unless I make an effort -- even before braces.

i have been through periods where veggies were hard for me. then it was like, bean burritos from Taco Hell, lentils/beans and rice, yogurt with cereal... lol. do you like V8, Mari? bizi mentioned it... i used to do V8 myself when i had a hard time with veggies. also carrot juice or ACE if you like them (i don't so much).
my diet is grossly deficient in fruit. i try to compensate some with fruit juice, fwiw.
