Dear readers,
Welcome to week #2 of the Vegans of Steemit Newsletter! Let's see what happened in the vegan & veggie community these past days and catch up with some of the best posts out there!
The goal of this Newsletter is to showcase the most interesting publications from our vegan Steemit & Whaleshares community during the week, and introduce new members worth checking out. We also feature a Q&A section at the end of the newsletter, in which non-vegans can ask anything they need to know about veganism and how to get there. Help us spread the vegan love!
@lolzwithlisa brought the annual Animal Rights March to our attention which took place yesterday (August 25th), and we sure hope that many people joined the march. More than 10,000 attendees were expected to join in London only. The number of attendees keeps growing every year, which is extremely encouraging and further proof that the vegan movement is here to stay and take over!
@apolymask is warning us of the violent opposition vegans face during marches and protests, and points out one of the most influential trolls out there. It's a shame that a peaceful movement which stands for the rights of the most defenseless is under attack by some individuals who make it their mission to sabotage vegans.
@jenniferferris for showing us how!
@plantstoplanks:
@monika-homa for sharing this with us!
@bait002 and his team developed this new platform which helps a lot of vegans access their funds more easily and allows us to exchange and send our Steem directly into our bank account in our local currency via PayPal. The official account name is 
@steemexchanger and you can check out @bait002 and his team's post for more information about how to do it:Some vegan noobs or people who think about switching to a plant based diet are worried about gaining weight, because they fear that increasing their carb intake will make them weigh heavier on the scale. Some newly turned vegans have in fact gained weight, and if that's your case, you may be making a mistake when cooking your meals.
