I am thinking of looking into becoming a vegan but I don't really know what I'm getting myself in to.
I've been a vegan for years!  It isn't easy, but abstaining from the use of animal products is important to me!
Would animal products include things like butter and cheese, because that would be really hard to give up
It IS hard, You'd need to avoid meat and eggs as well as dairy products, though it depends on how strict you want to be
