april j: Wow! You look amazing. I haven't seen you since last year but you look phenomenal. Congratulations!xoxoPS-I just submitted your blog to a vegan forum for best blogs :)
les: Congratulations! Be proud and thankful for the journey you are on.
Nutmeg: I will like for you to come to NYC VegFest on Sunday, Oct. 11 from 12-6pm @ Tompkins Square Park.
amanda: I'm responding to the shitty things people said about you. Those people don't understand that there is natural variation in the human form and a person's body fat ratio has nothing to do with her heart, mind, or beauty and sexuality. It's a cultural problem that objectifies all of us and turns insecure individuals against people who are happy with themselves. I think you look beautiful and happy before your weight loss and after.
Tris: I am so excited that you did it...you lost all that weight. I too am not your typical vegan. A guy the other day asked how come I have so much muscle and definition. I told him, there is so much more than just fruits & veggies. You look AWESOME!!! I'm inspired.
eumaledictio: Come back to your blog! Last post is nearing a year ago.

juliet: You are incredibly brave for having posted this journey online, no matter what these anonymous assailants say. You are beautiful as you are, and you give me hope for my own struggles and journey with weight and food, and all the craziness. Thank you so much for doing this. It's an incredible help to me, and others like me. Bless you. And even bless the assailants; I hope someday soon they have enough love and respect for themselves to be able to be kind to others.
Laura: I think you should change your blog and stop calling yourself the fat vegan. You are not fat. You are beautiful and thank you for the inspiration. I was a vegan about 8 yrs ago and lost 100 lbs. I started eating meat again and have gained it all back. I was thinking about going vegan again and you have inspired me!Thanks!
RACHEL HALE: dont pay attention to those nasty people sending you emails..they are just ignorant! Congrats on your weight loss! You should be SOOO proud of yourself!

"THE" Avgolemono soup recipe!!!

OneChubbyVegan's Veganized Avgolemono Soup

1 quart vegetable both
1/4 C long-grain white rice
3 TB nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
2 tsp tamari (optional)
1 C soymilk, or other unsweetened vegan "milk" of choice
2 TB cornstarch
1/4 tsp tumeric
1/3 C finely chopped chicken-style seitan (homemade or storebought)
2 TB vegan margarine or extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 to 1/3 C fresh lemon juice (use 1/4, then test for tartness, and add more if necessary)
zest from 1 small lemon, or 1/2 large lemon
1/4 C chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste (about 1/2 to 1 tsp of salt, and 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of pepper)
Fresh dill for garnish (optional)

Add vegetable broth, rice, nutritional yeast, and tamari (if using) to medium stockpot. Bring to a boil, and then lower heat, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, until rice is cooked.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the soymilk, cornstarch, and tumeric with a fork or whisk and set aside.

When 25 minutes is up, re-stir the soymilk mixture, and add to soup. Stir well, until thickened. Add seitan, margarine, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Mix well, and test for tartness. If more tart flavor is desired, add extra lemon juice.

Add parsley, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well. Serve with some freshly snipped dill, if desired. This recipe will double well.
