You can't be a Christian and a vegan at the same time.God views veganism as a sin
.I am a vegan too.

Huh? What made you think God view veganism as a sin? There's no such teaching.

Just ponder this.What do veganism normally associate with? Pagan religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism and Taoism? Or Christianity?If you go to hawker centres to find a vegetarian stall, do you find Christian ones or Pagan ones?If you do not want your vegan meals to link with paganism, you could dine in restaurants who are offering a vegetarian alternative but can be quite expensive and not many vegetarians can afford it.
Coloured eggs have to be prepared

1Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters. 2One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.3The man who eats everything must not look down on him who does not, and the man who does not eat everything must not condemn the man who does, for God has accepted him.

Ash Wednesday and Good Friday is obligatory. All Wednesday and Fridays is for those who want to..
Originally posted by cassie:Got reminded that Ash Wed is 10 days away. Unfortunately I can’t fast – am already having trouble keeping my weight steady. Plus got workouts. Guess I’ll abstain from desserts and junk food maybe.
I'm not fasting either. The last time I fast, I ended up having gastric flu. In fact, that was the one and only time I fast.
I will probably abstain from all meat and fish. Take vegetarian food for a day.

how about not focusing on easter... which is PAGAN and focus on passover which is biblical.

How about not thinking about paganism on Easter and focus on remembering our Lord Jesus?
ressurrection to be exact. shrugs

What about the rest of the feasts which Yahweh commanded us to keep in no uncertain terms. First deal with that then we can talk about the other stuff. How come we don't keep the feasts that Yahweh commanded us to keep and yet want to make so important the man made feasts? Where is the focus on Yeshua? He was never in easter. Yeshua was never ressurected during easter.. he was during passover. Easter and passover are two different things altogether. Did Yeshua observe easter? I don't think so.
