I miss cheese and milk.
Giving up on eating meat has been surprisingly easy. As I've said, I love to eat. Therefore avoiding meat is relatively eady to avoid if I simply eat other food instead. Peanut butter is a staple to me, so I am eating much more of it lately to get my protein intake. I've also massively increased my intake of nuts and beans, as well as avocado. I still miss meat and crave it. But when I'm full, I'm full.
It's different with dairy. Unlike meat, I have almost constant cravings for cheese, milk, and butter that simply cannot be assuaged with soy or other oils. Vegan is as tasty as any other, but I haven't really delved into soy cheeses as of yet. I've had bad experiences with them so far; every type I've had so far is dry and tasteless.
Nothing that should have cheese is quite the same without it. A pizza ceases to be a pizza, and I am already very sick of coffee with soy. But I soldier on! It can only get better (especially if I get a chance to prepare meals myself!)
