Congrats on going vegan! I remember when I had to give up all animal products because I was having terrible reactions to them. My body felt so much better after that! (After the initial "detox" process where sometimes you can have withdrawals.) Have you noticed any positive changes? I think that's what usually helps solidify the change.
And if you need any help finding something like that, let me know! After being vegan for over 4 years, I got pretty involved in the events/communities. :)

P.S.
I just saw you're in New York? If so, there are a TON of vegan/vegetarian/allergy-centric conferences that go on there. Even more than in Arizona!
