There's nothing wrong with being vegan, you just can't be lazy with food. A vegetarian diet might be a good way to start, if you are unsure? If you are already vegetarian the switch isnt that hard at all. The only problem is when you are out and need to eat.. lots of pre prepared food will have at least some dairy or eggs.
two great books;

http://www.amazon.com/Essential-Vege...6942710&sr=1-1

noegg if you bake
agar if you want to make jelly
