I think it's essential to engage with your followers. I always used to email bloggers, and no one ever replied, so I try to reply to every comment and question, and although sometimes I regret it when I'm sat on Instagram til 3 A.M., it's worth it.
My whole thing isn't about being vegan, to be honest. It's more about a more natural diet.
I'm promoting healthy - healthier - eating, not suggesting everyone should emulate me.
Stay true to yourself, engage with your followers, and ignore the critics.
Healthy eating isn't supposed to be about self-denial; it's not a punishment.
I think it's really important to find the right balance for you - a way of eating and living that satisfies you physically and mentally - and that's different for everyone.
