Been too busy and tired to blog.

Foray into Veganism II

Today I feel very slim and clean.
For breakfast, soy yogurt with granola.
During the day I snacked on an apple, granola, some crackers, a clementine, and a juice.
For lunch when I got home I made couscous and boiled edamame, then pureed banana and peanut butter and cocoa powder to make a yummy pudding.
I just had some pasta with a tomato sauce that I cooked up.
I probably didn't eat as much as I should have.

Foray into Veganism I

Starting this morning, I decided it would be Vegan Week. I'm tired of feeling bloated and guilty about eating animal products.

So far I feel really good. This morning I had soy yogurt (nothing new) with granola and a few leftover waffles that I just realized were probably made with milk or egg. I just steamed some broccoli and baby red bell peppers with salt, ate them with rice and hummus and pita. For dessert I had a few bites of a mango-strawberry salad and a glass of chocolate soy milk. Everything tasted really good and I didn't miss cheese on anything.

I'll stop on Sunday, unless I really like it and want to keep going. As long as I remember to eat beans or peanut butter I should be okay. I don't think I'll be too obsessive; I will eat honey, not worry about bone-bleached white sugar and flour, and not stress out if I slip up. Maybe I'll permanently alter my diet; I don't really drink milk as it is and rarely eat eggs.

This feels really good.

Unlike the end of vacation...
