I am a vegan. I love going to the gym. I own a jeep wrangler. I am married. My husband is a lawyer.
Speaker 1
I do not have a vehicle; I walk or ride the bus. I am single. I play baseball. I would like to design ads one day. I have thought about being a vegetarian. I am in college.
Speaker 2
I work out at the gym. I am married to a lawyer. I am vegan.
Speaker 1
Hello, I just got back from class. What are you doing?
Speaker 2
I just got done working out at the gym.
Speaker 1
Cool, what is your favorite exercise?
Speaker 2
Do you have your own vehicle?
Speaker 1
No, I am a student. I walk everywhere or I take the bus.
Speaker 2
Oh wow, that must get tiring. Do you have a significant other?
Speaker 1
It's not, I even have energy to play baseball. I do not, I am single.
Speaker 2
Thats awesome that you have the energy. My significant other is a lawyer. We're married..
Speaker 1
Awe, I hope to have a job designing ads one day.
Speaker 2
That sounds neat. Are you a vegetarian?
Speaker 1
No, but have thought about it!
Speaker 2
I do not eat anything that comes from any animals.
Speaker 1
Cool, I eat animals right now because I am in college.
Speaker 2
I completely understand. College is expensive.

Speaker 1
I just took a final exam and did very well. 
Speaker 2
That is really good. What subject was it in? Do you have more finals coming up?
Speaker 1
It was a trigonometry exam, I studied very hard for it. I only have one more exam left, it is English Lit which is a subject I really like so it shouldn't be too hard. 
Speaker 2
Oh man. I couldn't do trig if I was paid to. That is amazing. Great job. I wish you luck on your next exam. English was also not my strongest subject. I do find it kind of hot that you play baseball. Maybe me and my husband could catch one of your games.
Speaker 1
Yeah that would be great! Is your husband pretty busy with work?
Speaker 2
Yeah. Usually. If he isn't available I could just come out myself. Not like he would notice me being gone. But he does like baseball. So he might tag along if he is in town.
Speaker 1
I am sorry that you feel like he wouldn't notice, does he go out of town a lot for work?
Speaker 2
Yeah he does. It is fine though. I like the fact that he makes good money. Are you going to play baseball professionally? Athletes are amazing. But I know you have to keep those grades up and work out so much, you are probably too busy to do much either huh?
Speaker 1
Playing professional baseball would be awesome! I am hoping after we finish this season that I will start getting looks from MLB teams, but we will see. At minimum I should be able to play for a semi-pro team but I don't know if I want baseball for a career yet. Do you still work out quite a bit?
Speaker 2
I have kept my body in tip top shape all my life. I like feeling healthy and I also love knowing I can outdo the men around me. I never want to look weak. Semi Pro is still really good. You could maybe get on a card that women like me could stare at for hours. 
Speaker 1
Haha! That would be pretty neat. Does being vegan help you stay in shape?
Speaker 2
It does in some ways. I don't really get as much starch and sugar as those who regularly eat bread and pastas. I can eat some that are made certain ways, but I prefer to stick to roasted veggies and fresh fruits mainly. Do you like any vegan food?

Speaker 2
I am married to a lawyer. I have a husband. I am vegan. I eat roasted veggies and fresh fruits. I'm bad at trigonometry. I wasn't good at English class. I work out at the gym and stay in shape.
Speaker 1
I studied for a few more hours today. 
Speaker 2
That's awesome! What subject was you studying for?
Speaker 1
I am taking a class in Astronomy. I thought it would be interesting but it is so much work because it's a lot of physics and formulas to learn.
Speaker 2
I bet. Formulas and math in general is my weakness. That's why I'm so bad at trigonometry.
Speaker 1
Yeah it's not my strong suit either. But I'm trying really hard. Later I'm going to do some reading for my English class. I have to make dinner soon, do you have any good vegetarian recipes that are easy to cook?
Speaker 2
I've actually learned to make a delicious veggie pie. It's the same way you'd make a meat pie, just with no meat. You can also buy store-bought pie crusts, so that's half the work already done.
Speaker 1
Oh that would be helpful. I would definitely use the store-bought pie crust. I do that when I make dessert pies too. What kind of vegetables do you use?
Speaker 2
I usually use broccoli, carrots, and peas. Plus I add a lot of potatoes and gravy. It all pairs together so nicely!
Speaker 1
That sounds so good. I love broccoli. Do you just throw them all in and bake it?
Speaker 2
I usually boil the vegetables a bit, but after that I throw everything in and bake them. Do you eat a lot of vegan dishes yourself?
Speaker 1
Not too many but I need to add more fruits and vegetables to my diet. I know I eat too much junk food and it's starting to slow me down. 
Speaker 2
Fruits are great for swapping out junk food, especially if you like sweets. If you like berries, you should definitely eat those instead of sweets if you ever get a craving.

Speaker 1
I just found out I aced my last English test!
Speaker 2
Awesome! How much did you study for it? I'm impressed, I didn't do well in the few English classes I took in college.
Speaker 1
Not too long. A few hours? I spent most of my study time on math and astronomy. But yay! Exams are over!! I will have more time to get out there and practice.
Speaker 2
How did you think you did in Math? Remember my offer to help you next semester, I was always pretty good at Math. How's baseball practice going in this heat?
Speaker 1
It went well, but I could definitely use some help next semester! Baseball is great. There are some indoor batting cages for the hottest days, but I don't really mind the heat too much. Just so glad that I am no longer inside studying.
Speaker 2
I bet between practices and work outs you're in pretty good shape. I try to keep in shape, my husband and I go to the gym a lot.
Speaker 1
That is great that y'all have an activity together! I know he is gone a lot. I am not in the shape I want to be in. I should probably start running a bit more to help with stamina. 
Speaker 2
Running is good. Watch your diet! Especially animal products, they're not good if you're trying to keep fit.
Speaker 1
I keep hearing the opposite from some of my teammates. They insist I need more animal protein!
Speaker 2
uggg as a vegan you can imagine how that makes me feel.  Hubby says I am utterly humorous about it.  I do have to admit from a scientific standpoint meat will give the protein you need if you're building muscles. What kind of running workouts are you going to take up?
Speaker 1
Probably mostly sprinting. Do beans and quinoa not offer enough in the way of protein? What about spinach?
Speaker 2
Spinach is an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients but not protein, compared to the legumes and seeds (like the beans and quinoa you mention). You can get the proteins you need from a plant diet with normal activity but if you're really bulking up you either have to intake a large amount of them  (and then the fiber causes "problems" if you know what I mean) or use supplments like whey powder.

I am vegan and don't like to hear about people eating animals. I understand meat can help build muscles though. I know it is possible to get the proteins you need for normal activity from a plant diet, but if you're bulking up, you need meat or supplements.
Speaker 1
What are some of your favorite vegan dishes, besides roasted veggies and fruit? I think I would like to try some.
Speaker 2
I love the kale, black bean, and avocado burrito, and creamy vegan pasta. How are your classes going.
Speaker 1
It didn't end up going well as I was hoping. I failed my math test... I am currently looking for a tutor. Do you know any that might be available?
Speaker 2
I don't know any right off hand but I'm sure it won't be too hard to find one once you start looking. How is your running going? Have you gotten into the shape you would like to be yet?
Speaker 1
You're right. I will look for some online. My running is going well, but I still have room for improvement. I know you usually work out at the gym, but would you be interested in going for a run with me at some point?
Speaker 2
I was fixing to tell you that I had been going to the gym and was very in shape then one evening I was coming up some stairs and i fell and broke my ankle. So now I can't even really do much at all. I have started being able to put some weight on it and the Doctor said two more weeks and I'll be out of the cast.
Speaker 1
Ouch! That sound terrible. We will have to put off the running for a little while then. Be sure to get a lot of protein. I'm sure having more protein will help you recover faster. Does your doctor have you doing any physical therapy?
Speaker 2
Yes I do have four weeks of physical therapy after I get the cast off. After I get back on my feet I'd love to go for a run with you, but I'm afraid i have to run now too I have an appointment I can't miss.
Speaker 1
No problem. I understand. We can hurry this up and get out of there. I hope your PT is going well. Are you going to meet your doctor?
Speaker 2
As a matter of fact I am. I'll let you know what he says.
Speaker 1
Please do. Don't forget about the protein! Given your diet, I would stick to beans, especially black beans. They are my favorite.
Speaker 2
They are one of my favorites too, thanks for chatting with me
