CONGRATS! I hope you are pleased with the way you feel and look.
I've been a strict vegetarian about 4 years, and I go off and on vegan. And this is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I am always full of energy, my skin never breaks out, my hair and nails are healthy, my immunity is high, and moods are regulated. But most importantly, it's made my mind and body a cohesive experience.
When first transitioning my diet, I also wanted a cleanse, (although I am a veggie for political reasons, the health of it is my second motivation) and I found at first my hair and skin actually looked worse. I began breaking out, and noticed more hair falling out in the shower. But what's important to note is this is just apart of the cleansing process. I've also found that cleansing shouldn't be an "every so often" thing; it should be ongoing. Cleanse everyday through eating lots of green and natural fresh vegetable fiber, and eating from quick to digest to long aka fruit, veggies, starch, then protein.
Being a vegetarian also means a whole world of colorful new foods and recipes you would've never thought to try are now your options. I think being experimental with soups is a great way to transition.
Also you can save a lot of money by making your own almond milk- google the recipe!
Best of luck.
