How long have you been on this road? What made you want to live this way? What problems have you had?
I currently supplement b12 and take dha/epa as well as carnosine. I don't think I'm getting enough calcium though. I also work for a company that conflicts with my lifestyle too.
What jobs are out there that would support me on this journey?

I was vegetarian for a little under a year in 2014. I eat meat right now though. Mostly tried for health reasons. I eventually determined that I feel better with a meat diet myself, but that's because of the way I ate during it.
When I was vegetarian I'd eat a lot of bread, which was a bad thing. Ironically I eat more vegetables currently than I did when I was eating vegetarian only.
Vitamin B for sure. Iron too if your not eating spinach and broccoli often enough.
Look into Greek and Mediterranean recipes. Try not to overcompensate with carbs. Green veggies, fresh fruit and a metric shit ton if tree nuts.

Lol I've been eating so many nuts, I could make a gay joke if I had one x)
I hear you though. I'm doing this for my health as well and to be closer to God. It's been a long process but I'm only now making it happen. There was a girl in my class who was vegetarian who was about 300 lbs and it's because she ate all carbs. Clearly. But yea thanks for the advice. I pray you will continue to be a beacon of light and love in this life. Peace.

I was a vegan for more than a year, didn't eat meat for 4 years, mainly due to health reasons, it seemed to me that being vegan is the most "natural" way.
What can I tell ya.. the more I was strict with my diet the more I got sick for even trying something like donuts - instantly sick. Probably psychological.
I'm an omnivore now, I care less about health, but more about eating products from animals who suffered, but it's not enough right now to make me vegan again.

The way I look at it we're all animals, animals eat animals it's part of Mother Nature. Just because I'm more self aware of what I'm eating doesn't mean it's wrong to kill a deer, chicken, or Cow to eat... if we weren't self-aware we would instinctually kill animals to eat in general. That's the whole reason our body can Digest meats, nuts, herbs, Barry's Exedra. It's all part of nature.

I agree that there is no moral problem eating animals and it might be natural for us. The problem imo is that we do not hunt and grow our own food, we let industries to treat animals in horrible conditions, but we cover our own eyes, eating the nicely packed burger or chiken with their illustrated faces smiling at is.

My wife and I have been vegan for almost 2 years, since we each dosed 2.6mg of LSD, I tripped so hard that I couldn't stomach much other than fruit for weeks after.
Never could eat meat or animal products after that, only plants. I love animals, I would never eat them. I feel like animals like dogs and cats and chickens can smell that I don't eat animals and are more friendly to me now then they used to be.
Literally almost every meal we make has a cashew cheese or a cashew based sour cream, cashew ice cream is a really A+ replacement for dairy ice cream as well.
Drugs work on me stronger since I've been vegan, because my stomach rapidly and easily digests the plant based foods that I'm putting in it. I have to eat ~6 meals a day, which means that when I take drugs it's like taking them on an empty stomach, even if I've just eaten.

you mean that you buy into the vegan/peta propaganda. the vast majority of people in the US have never seen a farm yet many of those have decided based on a few pictures and what someone else who has never been to a farm has told them, they believe that they have a clue what's actually going on. some slick vegan stumbles across a photo of a feed lot and concocts a story about it being a factory farm, saying that cows are raised in close quarters confinement their entire lives, always standing knee deep in their own feces and never having access to fresh grass when the reality is this claim couldnt be further from the truth

I wish it was false.
I don't know where u live, but where I come from this is the way they treat them, let them be cows, chickens, pigs. I guarantee, they have no clue how fresh grass smells like.
I don't fall for cheap demagoguery, I've seen these things in my own eyes.

But he hasn't apparently a care in the world for the actual instances of Animal abuse and cruelty, so he barks loudly at anyone who talks about it.

I could honestly not give any more fucks about animal cruelty or animal agriculture on the small scale. An inherent reason as to why I'm going this route also is because large scale animal agriculture is destroying our planet. I'm the most important species on this planet and if I had to eat an animal to survive, I wouldn't hesitate. But I live in America and it is just unnecessary for me to continue down the road most traveled. And not to mention a road that also causes multiple health complications later in life.

want to know where I live? I live in rural USA, I live in farm country, I am in fact a farmer, I live where grass is plentiful and cheap, free in fact. I live where feeding grains to cattle would drive the cost of beef up to around $70/lb and feeding nothing but hay would drive it to around $30/lb if the hay is purchased, if I owned the new equipment for hay processing and storage, it would of course bring it down a great deal but unfortunately my bailer is down and I need a tedder and a sickle mower. an accumulator would also be nice but it's really required
when I play farmville, I actually have to break a fucking sweat

tell me, is it more cruel to treat a sick or injured animal with antibiotics or more cruel to leave it untreated for the sake of 'organic' certification?

ewww, i think you just answered your own question. A, A, friend. i'm not saying you don't know alot of varied interesting things. but you supposing that factory farming isn't grotesque without handling things with kid-gloves, which often is not the case of what is happening in many places, you get diseases, you get shoddily made food, and the standard almost becomes Chinese in quality.

In before this thread goes off the rails. Joe Rogan has some pretty good takes on veganism and lack of certain nutrients don't allow people to stick with it longer than a few years. If it makes you happy though, go for it. There are certainly worse things that you could be doing.
