I love the how not to die and how not to diet books. It was my first pick based solely on the large colored photos of the food on every other page. 1/2 recipe. 1/2 picture of the book.

You might know this but often those intense cravings are often your body saying it is needing a nutrient and is trying to convince you to feed it. You might just try eating some nuts or some fat to help make it more bearable.
it is so true. They become sudden "experts" on the topic they know nothing about. It is the field people believe they know everything about without any formal training needed.
mashed potatoes, vegan mac and cheese, pizza, and tacos.
Although I am pretty content eating smoothies, oatmeal, salads, soups, and stir-fry most days.
It is commonly just B12 that you really might want to supplement. B12 is not made by animals either. It is dirt from the ground. Since we sanitize most of our food it can be hard to get unless you are eating b12 fortified foods or taken a supplement. You don't need much though. Just a small weekly serving is enough for most people.
However, you can get blood tests done to check your levels and I believe it is commonly thought that people have YEARS worth of B12 stored up before becoming deficient.
Also D3 if you are not outside 30-60 min a day depending on the sunshine level at your location.
Iodine if you aren't using iodized salt.
and that's it. Everything else can be gotten in adequate supplies from plants and whole foods.
Let's hope this takes off. Look forward to building the communities here.
Hey everyone. Been Vegan off and on again from 2016. Mostly WFPB the last 3 years. No particular style just trying to eat whole food and minimize animal and processed foods when possible. Recovering cheese addict.
thanks for the tip!
