Thanks for your story, Plenum.
I encourage you to try coconut milk ice cream!! I actually preferred it from the get go! A bit pricey, but worth it. It is so rich and fatty that a little goes a long way, like gelato.
I used to play fast and loose with veganism (a little something with dairy every 3-4 weeks) but anymore, the smell and taste of dairy repulses me. Your tastebuds really do change so much. Especially as you remove processed foods (sounds like maybe you already have taken that step - I went from junk food queen to vegan, before I ever considered myself "spiritual"). Good luck!! I can tell you, in over two years now, I haven't been the slightest bit ill (as far as catching random germs goes, I had my coffee withdrawal!). I also only get indigestion on the rarest of occasions - when it used to be an every meal thing. I grew up as a pretty sickly nervous thing and almost all of that that was remaining went away with the switch. I was still pretty depressed until I started reading the Law of One. I guess I just did it the opposite way from you.... body first, then mind.
