I'd rather learn to make them myself and know what im eating.
btw why don't you eat much soy? The reason i ask is because i love soy milk, and soy yogurt, tofu but my bf told me he heard soy is not so good for women cause of something with cancer, do you know anything about that cause i don't want to risk anything lol but i love soy |
I use to eat Boca Burgers all the time and a lot of other veggie/soy burgers but I had to give them up. I did a ton of research and soy is really bad for you. I can send you some articles if you like but if you google soy, you will see what I mean.
Also, there are veggie burgers out there with NO soy and they taste yummy! I can send you some links if you'd be interested in buying them. I also love raw burgers (like I just had for lunch a spinach salad and a raw sunflower seed/veggie burger. It looks JUST LIKE a real beef burger and tastes sooo similar (it even SMELLS like a burger lololol) but it's soy and gluten free and all veggies and seeds. SOOOO DELICIOUS, you would love it!!!
Without getting into too much detail, I use to have a lot of problems w/ my menstral cycle. Once it stopped all together and I went to a whole bunch of doctors and specialists and it was determind that the soy was doing it. So now I avoid soy and diet soda all together (diet soda is bad for weightloss -- makes you hungry). Again, this is just me. I know a lot of people love diet soda (I personally use to be addicted to Diet Coke, no joke) but I gave it all up and what a huge difference it has made!
If you ever want to talk about this in more detail, just PM me. I've been doing a lot of research on this subject lolol Make sure you are getting enough protein. I eat more raw vegan than I do vegetarian because vegetarians eat dairy and bread and too much bread it just fattening. I still have some bread once in a while and dairy too but only once in a while. I do about 85% vegan and 15% vegetarian because once in a while I want some fresh mozzarella in my salad or I will be in the mood for a bowl of cereal.
For example, if I want a burger on a roll, I will have a whole wheat pita (they are only 70 calories) and put a raw sunflower burger on it w/ lettuce, tomato, sliced pickles and red onion and it's amazing -- better than any other burger I ever had!
