Switching to a vegan diet is NOT difficult - but like anything worthwhile in life, it does take a little effort! With a little research on food ingredients (you need to know what casein and whey are for starters) and a commitment to label-reading, you'll be on your way to a healthier diet (better for you AND the planet!). If you feel overwhelmed by cutting out all animal products at once, focus on one group at a time. First, stop eating flesh (and this includes seafood - a fish is not a plant, is it?!). Next, cut out eggs, then drop the dairy. Taking it one step at a time will virtually guarantee success. Once you drop the animal products you will feel so good you won't want to go back to eating that crap. Promise!
