5 Brutally Honest Reasons Being Vegan Is HARD (…But Worth It)  @Simnettnutrition
Uploaded July 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
I've been vegan for over 15 years, so I know it has its challenges. In this video I talk about them in the hopes of being relatable to other vegans and hopefully teach non-vegans a thing or two about what we go through. **Spoiler alert - It isn't searching for protein.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments down below! I am sure you all will have something to say about this one! I can't wait to read them.

Thanks for watching.
