I've known people that were hassled a lot about the poker thing I think it's mainly for other reasons besides poker and they just want you to tell the truth, but if people are getting denied it's likely not from poker it's because they just didn't believe you.

I can't even begin to imagine how shady and unkempt you have to look for the CBSA to ask you what you do for a living.

One of my vegan friends in Vancouver just made a shopping trip to the Whole Foods in Bellingham. Upon her return she uploaded a photo of her vegan(?) haul on FB. It contained the infamous Jason's Pure

Carnists call that a smoothie, and we're allowed to drink one whenever we want.

Only time I ever got grilled at the Canadian border is when I was driving a car with temporary plates and I had rainbow dreadlocks (go ahead and mock. I deserve it.) She asked if she could search the trunk and I said sure, go ahead. Nothing back there but some boxes of old stuff that had been sitting in my parent's attic for years. She gave a cursory glance and sent me on my way.

When I got home and unpacked the boxes I found an old bowl and a couple grams of weed from my high school years.

Yes, as do carnists who usually add some brotein powder.

From what I understood itt there can be subjective exceptions so yes I will be vegan like 99% if veganism provided some lean protein sources I would be able to do a better job.

And here you go again changing the story. It's easy to get into Canada, ldo. If you want to move there, then they're not going to let your ass move to Canada for six months to grind live 1/2.

Tons of vegan protein powder on the market. And as I've said before Vancouver is a ****ing great place to be vegan. I spent 2 months in Vancouver, 2 weeks in L.A and now I'm in Atlantic City. Needless to say I'm not a happy camper haha

I apologize in advance for this narcissistic post.

At the beginning of the year I went vegetarian. I am 6'1" male and when I first cut meat out I weighed ~195, now I am just below 170. I knew I'd lose weight, but am a little surprised I have lost this much already. I definitely eat less calories now, but am not starving myself. My energy is good and feel good.

I guess I will get to my point. Anyone else go thru anything similar? When can I expect my weight to level off?

I could get on board with being vegan but occasionally eating meat.

Correct. As long as you loudly pronounce yourself a True Vegan and proclaim your moral superiority over people who don't believe in the same morals/ethics you do, anything you do is vegan.
