i just luurrrvee you!!!! you are so real, personable and wise! thank you VeggieMAMA for that product reviewwww!!!
hahaha i liked the eight ball in the beginning :D
happy anniversary!!!
I love your videos :) Yay, Dawn!
Still haven't tried protein powder... I really should :P Glad to hear it's working for you. For me - healthy fats are what work. ::shrug:: to each her own!
You look adorable, and happy weekend!
Yay, another episode! Great Product review!
Great product review. I haven't been doing enough strength training to warrant protein powder addition to my diet, but I will def. consider this vegan source if I do so in the future. Happy veganniversary too!
i loved the magic 8 ball addition---i used to have one when i was younger and i loved it!
HAPPY VEGANANNIVERSARY!
and thank you so much for all your support this week (and always!) it means so much to me and I am so glad that I have you as a friend.
Have a great weekend!
You crack me up with the Magic 8-Ball! It was so funny!
You also cracked me up with the "liquid nitrogen" thing! It's VeggieGirl Comedy TV! :)
How cool! You and your dad are Sun Warrior protein buddies! I have tried a different kind of brown rice protein and it really was almost vomit-inducing, so it's good to hear this one isn't. Thanks for the great review!
Happy veganniversary!!
i love your videos too! thanks for doing them.
i am pro-protein as well. i'll definitely mention this product the next time someone questions why i have to get protein in powder form.
2 years! congratulations. that's an accomplishment.
Great review.
i'm glad you found that more protein works better for you. Its interesting how some things work for some people and not for others.
Happy "veganniversary!"
Another great episode!
I will definitely have to look into this protein powder. I had to give up my last brand because it had pineapple in it (one of my sensitivities) and I'm missing my morning smoothies! I'll have to look for the other hemp brand that you like as well...
Happy vegan-iversary! Have a great weekend
Thanks for the review, and Happy Blogiversary!
That is one (or two) massive container of protein powder! Glad that it tastes good and works for you, because man, it would suck to not like it and waste it all. I've never tried brown rice protein powder before, so it would be interesting to try. Thanks for the review :)
Great reviews. Makes me want to order the powder.
Happy Veganniversary! How exciting! Thanks for the protein powder review. I've been thinking about trying a brown rice protein powder because I love brown rice pasta so much, and haven't been happy with the soy protein powder I've been using in my smoothies. :)
Hi Veggiegirl! This is my first comment for you and I wanted to tell you that I love veggiegirl tv! You are awesome!
I've always wondered about protein powder..i had some in the past and the taste just made me think ick...so I never tried it again.
Does eating like a jar of PB a day count for healthy fats and protein. ;)
oh my gosh veggie girl. i am SO happy you put this review up!! I have mentioned to a lot of people that I've been looking for a new protein powder to use, but the only ones I've found that aren't full of chemicals arent vegan (and I'm trying to go in that direction with my diet these days) or they taste SO gross, which makes them not even worth using. I'm on the Sun Warrior website right now ordering a chocolate and a vanilla! yayyy!
p.s. happy veganniversary :)
yessss, it's the most highly anticipated tv show of the week!! thanks for another great one :-)
your magic 8 ball had me giggling up a storm. i had one of those when i was little and it was my favorite thing in the world ... for about an hour until all the answers started to repeat, haha
Thanks for the product review! I really want to start upping my protein this summer with protein shakes, so I'm definitely considering this protein powder (even though it only comes in GIANT tubs).
Congrats on your veganniversary :)
Happy Anniversary!
Sooooooooo....I tried the powder today. It was def much better than the other rice protein (yes, Veggiegirl was SO right). I had it with milk and blackberries. Still a SLIGHT bit chalky for me. In terms of ingredients, I think it is the best natural/real product out there, but I think I may end up going the egg protein route. I really appreciate you turning me on to it though!
SO with you on the benefits of protein! It has made a HUGE change in my tummy!
As always- LOVE veggiegirl tv.
Any weekend plans?
oh darn, I really wanted to see your Sun Warrior review and it says the video is no longer available. Let me know if anyone else is having this problem:(
Happy Anniversary my dear!
I would love to go to WF this weekend, but we are going to PA to visit our friends for the weekend! Maybe next weekend?
Hi VeggieGirl!
I've been waiting for your 8th episode! yay!!!
HAPPY Two year veganniversary!!!! ;]
thank you for the great review!
Happy First Day of Spring!
Hi Liz!
Aw I <3 your sense of humor, sort of sarcastic but not too negitive- I laughed out loud at the 8 ball! :) Thanks for the great product review and sharing all the personal. raw foodie info. I always thought veganism was a huge step (um, most americans follow horrendoes diets even compared to vegans who purchase alot of organic processed stuff! :P) and I admire yours with the raw lifestyle... what made you want to go in that direction? :0 I drink nutivia hemp protien shakes (but not daily) which seem pretty natural, I haven't seen that brown rice powder around. Hooray for veggiegirl TV, I always look forward to this after a long week of school every Friday girl! :D Enjoy your weekend, happy vegananniversery! (Do I smell a raw sweet potatoe pie with a puffin crust?) Haha, go veganism! :)
Happy Veganniversary! I have to try this protein powder out. The rice protein I use now is alright, but it's not the greatest. I just love how it only contains rice and vanilla. But yours sounds just as natural, and even tastier. Thanks for all of the great recommendations VeggieGirl. You keep me eating healthy and exciting new foods!
ahh haha the eight ball prop made me laugh so hard! and you always have the cutest little bracelet accesories. Thank you so much for the fabulous review girl and making the all important point that what's good for SOME people isn't good for EVERYONE.. but i agree, cant beat that protein =).
Can't wait for episode 9 girl!!
Love love love VeggieGirl TV! And oooh wow sooo exciting about the veganniversary!! =D
happy vegannaversay!!!! love veggietv
Fantastic product review! Anything with the VG stamp of approval peaks my interest.
Happy Veganniversary!!! I am so thankful for you and your blog :)
Aw Happy Veganaversary! That's so neat :)
oh i LOVE veggiegirlTV episodes! yaay for episode 8! and thanks for the powder reviews!
Happy Vegaversary! I just celebrated my one year on Valentines day. Yay vegans!
Great product review. I always check and make sure there is no liquid nitrogen in my protein powder before buying it as well ;)
I forgot to mention this to you in your last post but I really like the bracelets you wear. The green one was totally cute and this red sparkly number you were wearing in episode 8 was very fun!
So totally random but I have the same type of container that you have on your microwave.
Maybe I should up my protein since I'm so sore from running. What do you think? I'm not trying to build muscle but I don't think more protein would hurt. I'm trying out this Vega stuff, I'll see how I feel after drinking a shake a day for a few days.
I just wanted to thank you for posting on my blog. It really means a lot to me and makes me feel really welcome into this strange, new and amazing world of blogging.
Veggiegirl, you're the best!
Cheers,
Sarah
Thanks for the review!! I think I might order this now because I have been looking for a good protein powder!
so cute you and pops make matching smoothies :D But damn now I'll have to check for liquid nitrogen in my food!! haha honestly I would NOT be surprised...Thanks for bringing us into your kitchen in your cute juicy zip up!!! Love yaaa VG!
the magic 8 ball - so funny! vg t.v is the highlight of my friday nights.
yay sun warrior! super review lou :D i am officially convinced so i will check my co-op tomorrow to see if they sell it.
happy, happy veganniversary! i think a batch of vegan gluten free blondie are in order!
talk to you later! love you loads <3
xo bunny
p.s Q&A episode 9!?
Thanks so much for the product review--I just ran out of my beloved Nutribody, so I am looking for another soy-free protein to try.
Happy veganniversary!
Oh no...am I the only one who is having problems viewing this one?!
What would you have done if the 8 ball said NO?
I love how you say high FRUCKtose corn syrup.
The protein matters for me too. I really need to work more shakes in!
Happy Veganiversary, Liz!
Like RunToFinish I count a little too much on PB for healthy fats :) But I'm eating more and more protein powder as I discover ones that are de-li-cious (or should I say Holy Yum?? )
Have a great weekend!
Great episode :) Can I just say you look absolutely great? In the last few episodes you somehow seem healthier and just more..I can't explain. But you look amazing and I'm so glad you're taking care of yourself :-)
great product review! I'm going to check its website! :D
I tried protein foe the first time this week and really like it! I think I'll take it regularly. So thanks for letting me a natural protein powder product.
and happy vegananniversary.
Happy Veganniversary - congratulations!! I am sad because our broadband isn't good enough for me to be able to watch your videos :( darn.
I always enjoy watching Veggiegirl TV. An enjoyable episode as always :D
P.S. Happy anniversary!
Urrgghh. I don't know if my first comment went through but it basically said I LOVE YOUR VEGGIEGIRL TV EPISODES! and thank you so much for always supporting me. You might have like 4 comments from me because I've been trying to get blogger to work with me but whatever. Love you lots!
Congrats on two years : ), that's fun!!
I'm about to leave to go out of town but I can't wait to watch your video when I get back!! ; )
Have a great weekend!!!!
So pleased you did this. I've been looking for a good vegan protein. I'll have to check this out!
-E
This is one of the most helpful reviews I have ever seen. I have been very frustrated in the quest to find a protein powder that tastes good and is natural. You don't want to invest $ and find out it is awful. Maybe you could find the best running watch and review is for me ? :)
Thanks again, have a wonderful weekend!
Another awesome VeggieGirl TV episode! That protein powder sounds AMAZING.. glad you found something that works for you! Thanks for the recommendation, too.
Oh, and Happy 2nd Veganniversary!!! Got anything special planned for Sun?
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! Your Videos are great!
zesty
Your video's take awhile to download on my ever slow internet, but they are are SO worth the wait! I look forward to episode #9! :)
hahahahaha.
that magic eight ball.
you crack me up.
nice review!!!!!! very informative!! lol and you are SO cute with the 8 ball!
love youuuu!
happy weekend!!! :)
Oh cool, thanks for this review. Protein powder is touchy because it's expensive, so you don't want to drop all this cash and have it taste like arse. Sounds like Sun Warrior is a winner! Glad to hear it has worked for you.
Happy Weekend and Veganniversary! :)
Girl, you're so fierce! I love VeggieGirl TV :D
Thanks for the reviews chickie!! I'm like a cat though, I couldn't stop staring that the sparkly bracelet - loves it! Keep pumpin' the iron, you'll be ripped like ahhh-nold before you know it! ;)
HAPPY VEGANNIVERSARY!! Eat lots of Veggie Delicious treats!
Thanks for the review. I hadn't hear of this before. I am always looking for stuff that's not filled with tons of weird ingredients.
ThANKS for the protein powder review!! I've been researching and researching...that one definitely sounds appealing!
Thanks also for all your support with my being sick...meant a TON!
Great review. So, does that information apply to me or just you? Kidding! You're so funny. Happy two year anniversary! Yay!
HAPPY VEGANNIVERSARY!! Looking forward to the review--I love using protein powders in smoothies and even baking. :)
Hehe, I loved the protein outburst! :) Some people can be so critical of what other people eat, but it's all about what works for you! (And being healthy, of course of course!) It's so cute to think of you eating a food titled "Sun Warrior," also.
Congrats on your two year anniversary! Mine is coming up in August, so yay for compassion and sticking it out!
Hi gorgeous!
Thanks for the shout out!!! :) You're such an awesome gal.
Ok, I'm trying to watch the video and it says it's not available - boohoo!
I'll try again later ;)
Love you,
Kristen
Congrats on 2 years! I will be 2 years in May.
thanks so much for that review ! I just bought rainbow light brand rice protein powder and it's really bad. I'm definitely going to give sun warrior a try !!
hey girl! lol love the magic 8 ball. thanks for all the information on the protein shakes! and i never knew xantham gum was natural! glad that you are finding that adding protein has been very helpful for you! i always try to eat a lot of protein too! happy vegan anniversary! you are the best girl love you lots
Very nice review Veggiegirl!!
I saw protein powder but never used before, now I know more about it :)
((( Happy Happy Happy Veganniversary!! )))
Cool product review! I'm actually writing a paper right now about dietary protein and bone health (boring!.. haha). Most people eat way more than the recommended amount anyway. In general, higher protein intakes were better for bone health (but obviously not excessive). Plus, adverse effects of protein on bone health usually occurs with inadequate calcium and you're so careful with all your nutritional needs, you probably have all your vitamins and minerals!
I'm curious what the actual nutritional value is of the protein powder.. how many calories, grams of fat, grams of protein, fiber.. Brown rice in itself is really not that high in protein, so I really wonder what the numbers are here.
I'm going to go goolge the info.. don't feel like you have to answer my questions.. just more thinking aloud..
Yay for two years vegan!
Good review. Happy Veggie-'Versary ;)
Hope you have a GREAT vegan anniversary celebration tomorrow!
Thanks for the review. I'm clueless about protein powders. And Happy Veganniversary!
Haha, March 22 is my dog's birthday! In any case, I hope you do something fun to celebrate your veganniversary. Are you going to bake anything?
I gave you the Lemonade Stand Award on my blog! Your blog is just so lovely :)
happy veganversarry Liz !! ^o^
VeggieGirl,
So, I am totally behind on reading blogs, and tonight when Chris and I were walking our dogs, he mentioned that he had watched VeggieGirl episode 8, and I was like, "...Huh? YOU DID NOT WATCH IT BEFORE ME!" Yes, he did. How funny is that? My husband loves VeggieGirl too. :)
Thank you so much for the product review. I got an email saying the samples are on their way. I cannot wait to try it, especially after hearing your review.
On the protein thing, that's cool how you're not so sore anymore. I hear/read so many different things regarding protein intake. Guess we just have to figure out what works best for each of us. I rarely eat meat, and I just feel I need more protein. Powders are a good source for me - I know a lot of people argue they're not "real food", but if I use one with all natural ingredients, what's the problem? I see none. Besides, I'd rather have a big protein packed shake than a piece of turkey or something. I was always more of a milkshake girl. :)
Weeee!
Happy Veganniversary. That's HUGE!
Also just popping in to thank you for giving my page its very first comment :)
i cant wait to be seeing more fo your veggie TV.
ooo yay to dawn for coming up with the comment regarding veggiegirl tv - love it :)
i just finished packing (for the day) and decided to treat myself with a veggiegirl tv episode :)
i am so intrigued by that sun warrior powder, i love that it has real food & pronounceable ingredients & it's veggie-girl & veggie-dad approved - woo hoo :)
congrats on your two year anniversary tomorrow!!!!!!! that is huge!!! :D
Cool review!!! Vanilla does sound just right :) AND congrats on the vegan anniversary - you go girl!
I'm a long-time reader but first time commenter. Thanks for another great episode! And congrats on two years vegan!!
Thats one awesome review, Liz!! :D You should totally be a health food products reviewer - you're awesome at it!! Sun warrior ey?!! What a cool name! Can I ask you a question?? Do you think I need to increase my protein intake if my workout comprise of mostly cardio (+ a wee bit of strength training)?!! THANK YOU :D
HAPPPPPPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!
Nice episode! I like how you get so passionate about products.
Also, Happy Vegan Anniversary!!! You should talk about what you ate like before you were a vegan and how your health has changed since then.
Awesome job on the protein powders Liz. I like how you broke down the ingredients AND said how the pound per bodyweight is working FOR YOU. Soooo important :) Looks like you'll be doing one arm pushups in no time...
Veggie Girl TV yeah! Thank you sweetheart. I think it's so great how far you are coming along in your espisodes. Each one gets better and better, and you are becoming a such a natural on front of the camera. You know someday we may just be watching you on actual TV, ya never know chicklet!
Good review. Let me know if you ever think about maybe trying out the Garden of Life protein powders; I use them daily and love them, but can't remember if it's all ok for you.
Yes, protein matters big time when you're strength training: good reminder to all.
It says your video is no longer avalible =(
Veggie Girl-
What a great review! I love it!
Your up and coming vegan anniversary is so exciting!!! I would love to hear your vegan story and what made you decide to make that huge commitment. I'd also love to hear the benefits you have found living that lifestyle and also some of the challenges.
You are a great example and motivator for those living that lifestyle, and also to people like me who haven't made the full vegan commitment, but are taking baby steps in that direction :)
You are great Liz!
Happy veganniversary :) and thanks for the great product review. I have a load of powder to use, but I'll have to consider getting this when I'm done with my supply. Love your videos.
Hi Veggie Girl!
I'm so happy you reviewed the Sun Warrior protein powder because I saw it on the www.veganbodybuilding.com forums, and I've been wanting to try it. I currently have a container of multi source vegan protein powder, but it's awful. I'm also trying to eat more than 1gm of protein per pound of body weight to build muscle, and I also weightlift.
If you haven't been to www.veganbodybuilding.com, I highly suggest it! The forums are such a great resource and everyone is so friendly. Three of the guys (including the founder, Robert Cheeke) are representing vegans in a bodybuilding contest in April. They are selling the Sun Warrior protein (and giving away a vegan bodybuilding t-shirt with it!) as a fundraiser for their competition at http://www.veganproteins.com/vegan-protein-t-shirt-fundraiser.html in case you or anyone you know is interested in helping them out. I just ordered the vanilla based on your review from their site.
Anyway, good luck with the muscle building, and good for you for knowing what's best for your body. Happy 2nd veganniversary!
Sue
From time to time I like to put protein powder in my smoothies to give them a boost of fun.
I so need a magic 8 ball!!
I love your reviews, and I wish I could get Sun Warrior here - it sounds like such a great go-to shake, and so healthy, too!
Happy Veganniversary, too!!
Hi sweetie, The video is not working. It says it is no longer available?
Hope you can get it working again. Love your videos!!!
Love the video (8-ball was classic!)
Happy Anniversary!
;)
The video isn't working for me but..
HAPPY VEGANANNIVERSARY! Weee partyyyy haha
Thanks for the video veggie girl!!!!!!
I am totally with you on protein and so glad that you are a firm believer in it!!! And thanks for the product reviews, I'll have to try those soon!
too bad they only sell it online :\
LOVE the product review :) thanks a bunch.
happy vegan anniversary too!!
ps. you have really pretty shiny hair. I kept staring at it haha.
Another great review! I'm impressed you weight train 5 times a week. My old body needs at least three days rest between training sessions!
Happy veganversary!!!!
Thanks so much for the comment! I will watch the video, I promise :)
<3 jess :)
xxx
Congrats on two years!! That's an amazing accomplishment!
All that weight training is very impressive... I try to fit it is as much as possible myself. Great review!
Happy veganniversary!
Congrats on 2 years!
Hey, did you receive any goodies in the mail lately? :)
Happy Veggieversary!!! YAY!! LOVED the new episode!
Love your TV posts!! I will have to try the powder, I am in need of more protein!
Yay for veganism! Congrats on the anniversary, and great review!
NAOmni
I finally got over to my mom & dad's house so I could watch the video. Thanks for the review, the SW sounds great! As always, enjoyed your episode:)
so true about finding what works for you! there is no "one size fits all" great review, i will be in the market for a new protein powder soon... we'll see how much i can afford :-/
happy veganniversary!! wow, what a mouthful ;-)
happy veganniversary!!!
yay! I just watched episode 8, and I loved it!!
Your product reviews are so thorough! The vanilla sun warrior protein powder seems like a FANTASTIC product! I love how you can pronounce the ingredients and how it's real food in powder form!!
Thank for the video!!!
btw HAPPY VEGANNIVERSARY!!! <3
You know I don't use protein powder and haven't been interested enough to really check out any vegan brands but your review makes me curious/interested. Kristen is AWESOME! Lucky you that she is your raw advisor. :-)
Congrats on your second year vegan anniversary! Yeah!!!!
Happy veganversary!!
Happy Veganniversary!!! WOOHOO!! This is spectacular! I have a feeling I'll make that step someday. Awesome review, too. I love how you're like, "this is what works for ME, not for you." We're all just different creatures in our own ways. However, it does make me think about taking a look at my own protein intake. Hmmm. Anyway, I love your episodes; they make my day. Hope you have a faaab week:)
P.S. I'm still sad I cannot visit this week :(
hey Veggie Girl,
i ahve been reading your blog since soooo so so so long and now finally that i have my own blog i want to comment here saying how much i apprechiate your blog. have a great day and lots of care
Never have I wanted to drink a protein shake so much. You sold me!
Happy veganniversary!
Yay VeggieGirl! I just started a blog, too.
www.glutenfreegidget.blogspot.com
Check it out!
Happy Veganniversary!! Whoohoo! :)
That powder sounds great, I am going to check it out next time I am at the store.
Great video!
Thank you for the review!! I feel like the dark-child of the American Dietetic Assoc. because the ADA doesn't even post protein daily requirements for labels! And, my professors are always saying how the US eats too much protein and you don't need to supplement protein. Blah to them! I think its ultra important.
Happy Veganniversary!! I love that 8-ball start too!
Happy veganniversary (a day late)! So exciting!!!
love episode 8! congrats on your veganniversary!
happy happy veganniversary! did you just coin that term? it may just come out in webster soon!
lol, you are always so adorable and funny! I loved this entire episode. I've been thinking about trying some protein powders as well, so thanks so much for the product review. but still, I don't think I can ever give up my eggs. to each their own, as you also mentioned!
Hehe VeggieGirl.. EVERYONE loves your blog!
-E
VeggieGirl! I need advice about using a vegan product I just bought - Suzanne's Ricemellow Creme. Have you used this in any of your recipes? If you have any tips, I welcome them :) Thanks!
VeggieGirl, are you going all video from now on?? :-)
Thanks for the new video! I haven't tried any protein powders, but I definitely know where to go if I decide to! :)
Happy Veganniversary (a bit late)!
VeggieGirl-
I just want to tell you how awesome I think you are! It is clear how busy you are with school and yet I see your comments all the time on everyone's blogs and you are always so positive! Keep up the video posts--love em! :)
Kristine
happy veganversary! great product review, im going to check it out!
Yay for more videos and congrats on the vegananiversary yesterday. :-)
I'm going to have to try and find this Sun Warriors Protein....... not gritty at all? Hmmmm.....
Veggie Girl,
Another great episode! Your videos make my week. I absolutely adore your straightforward attitude and dry humor. (The eight ball was adorable today).
Congragulations and happy vegananiversary! Way to go!
Might I suggest a protein shake toast to many more years with VeggieGirl?
With Love,
Emily
Happy belated veganniversary!
Thanks for the ricemellow tips - I particularly like the idea of using it as a filling for sandwich cookies... and there will definitely be a fluffernutter sandwich in my near future :)
yay, i finally had time to stop and watch your video! love the review! i've never used protein powder before, but if i decide to buy some, i'm glad to know about a veggiegirl approved one!! so glad its been helping you feel good after your workouts!!!
I have used the hemp protein you showed and often recommend that one to my clients. My preference for protein however is always to just throw some flaxseeds, almonds and spirulina into the blender with the fruits and veg.
It's saying that your video is no longer available.
I'm bummed, I really wanted to see this review.
Oh well, Happy Anniversary!
It says it's no longer available :(
Happy belated veganniversary! TGH and I are just beginning our plant-based diets. It has been a couple of weeks already but we were kind of headed in this direction anyway since we had been mostly vegetarian. So our diets are vegan now at least (the rest of our lives are not so I won't call us vegans). That was a good and fair product review. I'm glad that one of the rice protein powders actually tastes good. I didn't know your dad also used it, but I'm glad to see he is making healthy decisions about his diet. So many men don't. Anyway, yay for another episode of VeggieGirll TV and thanks to Dawn for the idea!
Thanks for the review!
Congrats on your two year veganniversary!
Happy 2 year Veganniversary!
Just loving the videos and stuff! =)
Happy veganniversary! That's so awesome! I loved this episode - you're funny. I think you're right on for saying what works for you doesn't have to work for everyone - people's bodies are so different and so are their lifestyles and habits. I would looove to find that protein powder - so great it's got recognizable ingredients. Alas, they don't sell it here. Thanks for the review though, I'll keep my eyes peeled!
Happy Anniversary 2 days ago!! Sorry I missed it!!
I'm watching the episode as soon as I get home from work! I watched your last one and loved it!
Congrats on your veganniversary!!
I wouldn't have thought there would be a protein shake out there that wasn't so highly processed. I have to give this a try when I run out of my regular.
Happy Veganniversary! (late!) I have no idea why, but I can't watch your video, when I click on it - i get a message saying that its no longer available =(
I love VeggieGirl TV! I really think it lets your fun and witty personality shine through!
Thanks for the protein powder review. I haven't tried any form of protein powder yet, but I do know that protein is key when recovering from injuries and to allow the body to repair itself. I'm glad you have found a balance that helps you feel your best.
Thank you so much for all the nice comments you leave on my blog. They never fail to bring a huge smile to my face!
Oh, and...
Happy Veganniversary!
yay! Happy veganversary!
Happy veganversary! :) I've never really had a protein shake...I had a roommate who was addicted...considering how vegetarian my diet is becoming I should try it... do they have chocolate?
haha! they do have chocolate! that's what i get for commenting before you finish talking... :)
Happy Anniversary!
I now need to go soy free so I will be reading a lot more often :)
Ack! Just wanted to let you know that I just tried watching this video and it says:
"Sorry, this video is no longer available."
Boo! (Not "boo" to you, "boo" to YouTube.)
Thanks for the review! It's mroe fun to see someone review it than to read it because it's more real!
do you think that you could put a recipe index for your baking recipes so that i can find them easier? i want to seriously bake up some blondies but i can't remember all the kinds that you have posted and it is frustrating to try to go through all the posts and see them all. do you already have something like this because i don't see one? thanks!!!!
wooo good job for you are your 2 year anniversary girlfriend! Love the video post as usual. You are just so creative and started such a good trend of video posting!
Loved hearing about that protein powder...I've never seen it before but it sounds great! I love protein shakes, but agree that its weird with so many not-so-natural ingredients in most powders!
Happy Vegananniversary!!
Happy belated anniversary!
Great post! I LOVE your sass, Miss Thang.
Happy Veganniversary!!!
So, do you do one gram of protein per body weight in kg or pounds? I like to know what all works for other people. I'm a dietitian and it helps me when working with clients! Thanks so much!
just found you ..congrats on your veganniversary!
happy veganniversary VG!! i have enjoyed each and every one of your posts, it's just like another addictive TV program ;)
helllllo!! I hope you are having a super lovely week!! How did you celebrate your blogiversary??
Cheers!
Congrats on your blog birthday!!
A little late, but happy veganniversary!!
Happy Veganniversary! :-) 2 years strong—that's awesome!
I put up some pics of Arthur for ya :-)
You are such a good speaker, Veggie Girl.
VeggieGirl!
I know you're gluten-free. Do you use a particular 'gluten-free' oatmeal, or do you see that you can tolerate the normal stuff. thanks! lgreen3 at gmail dot com if you want to email me.
Hi, I've been a long-time reader and now I'm a first time commenter :-) I just made a version of your famous blondies - so delicious!
http://runnerskitchen.wordpress.com/2009/03/27/12-marathon-grand-prix-weeknight-eats/
VeggieGIRL!!! I love this episode, I am always trying to find better protein powders, and like you I belive it DOES help with soreness!!! Thanks so much for the review, P.S. I sent you an email about the featured fridge on my blog, havent heard back:)But I would love to use your video, and a pic of you by your fridge would be GREAT!
Hi Veggiegirl :)
I was hoping to email you but see no address on your blog, so I'm hoping if you can spare the time, you might contact me?
I've been reading since I first came across your blog and you had posted a Veggiegirl TV episode where you talked about having Crohn's disease.
I have an autoimmune disease that is in the same family as crohn's, doctors often refer to it as a "cousin of crohn's". I don't know if you know a lot of people with crohn's (and other autoimmune illnesses) or not and if it's a struggle for you or you are healthily maintaining but I just wanted to say I know how painful it is and how scary and alone it can feel. I would love to chat with you more and learn more about how you are feeling and what you find helpful for feeling well!
Your blog is so fun by the way, you are a total pro! I emailed Sun Warrior about their Rice Protein after seeing it on Kristen's blog but then forgot about it so now that you recommend it (and you're Gluten free and Soy free too) I totally trust it. I ordered some and am totally hoping it's better than Nutribiotic rice powder!
Hugs, Coconutgal
Happy Veganniversary, VG lova. Hope it's been a blissful and peaceful 2 years. Seems like it has :D
Lovely review of the protein powders. I often cringe at the fake-ness of even seemingly natural ones, so this sounded perfect. If I used protein powder. Meh. Still cool though! Thank you :D
I didn't know Dawn gave you the idea for the VGT! Glad you heared her ;)! Good product review, I've never had protein shakes, but it's good they work for you!
That's really good that you're finding out what works for you and your body. I agree with you that (at least for me) I notice a difference when I'm not getting enough protein (mainly I feel tired and hungry).
Anyway, on another (not quite protein) note, I wanted to ask you about your eating raw chocolate. (I know you don't eat soy and that you try to eat a lot of raw foods and I've read your blurb about carob versus cocoa). I've been working on some raw cacao truffles and I'm "flavor testing" right now and I was wondering if you'd let me know what you think if I send some to you. Obviously the cacao is raw and so are all of the ingredients I'm using in them, and obviously I keep the temperature of everything below 115F when I'm making them. If you're at all interested, email me at cloverandclutch@gmail.com.

Hi!!!
YAY!!! I was finally able to watch the video! I love the product review and thanks for the shout out! I've received some new followers to my blog as a result!
Love ya!
Kristen
I have to say that I am a big fan of the protein powder I use but am willing to give that one a try.
Happy Vegan Anniversary, you are an inspiration to many.
As you're a journalism major (me too!), let me tell you, you present yourself VERY well. You have a wonderfully candid style that has some great natural snark but none of that faux bitchiness that some reporters try to put off.
Anyway, this protein looks wonderful!
I strength train too, and protein makes all the difference. It's the building block of your body! Haha, you must be the only one of your kind--a vegan who consumes more than 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight!
Hi Ladies, Nutiva's Organic Hemp Protein 50% is AWESOME and they are a Vegan Company. Check out their Coconut Oil, Hemp Seeds and Hemp Oil.

Hi VeggieGirl! I've never seen those products before, very interesting thank you! I too am trying to build more muscle mass because I've been a ballet (and other forms too) dancer for years and my ectomorphic body type doesn't seem to want to build! I'm not dancing as much anymore, but would like to maintain and build my muscle. Some athletes who mostly strength train need 1.4-1.7 g/kg of protein per day, so at least 1g/kg per day for you would be ideal, especially if your training so hard. Thanks again!
Kristen
