TOAST ADDICT Du pain sans gluten, de l'avocat, tomates, sel et poivre (beaaaaaaaaucoup) franchement c'est la vie! Par contre le pain Biocoop sans gluten c'est un peu abusé 🙄 Au fait ça vous intéresserait de savoir pourquoi je l'évite ? Bref, je retourne devant Gilmore Girl avec ma mère (rituel ❤️) Belle soirée !

Where to even begin?

At first, I wasn’t really sure on where to begin in this whole vegan process. I did try and convince my family to come on this journey with me, but giving up meat & dairy was something that they weren’t completely ready to follow through with just yet. One of my goals for this project however, is to convince my family to give this new lifestyle a shot with me somewhere along the line. In the meantime though, I have had to try and work around being the only one in my family of five who is going to adapt to this lifestyle. This has required much meal planning, and trying to figure out a meal that caters for both meat & dairy eaters as well as a plant based diet. My mum in particular has been super supportive and took me to the grocery store to stock up on vegan substitutes that she could use in our meals to make them vegan for me. For example, when my family had spaghetti and meatballs, I had the vegan equivalent which was red sauce with some vegan veggie balls. 

As I successfully come onto three days of being fully vegan, I haven’t felt any major differences (but considering I have only been vegan for three days I was definitely not expecting to feel any drastic improvements straight away). However to my surprise, I definitely noticed that today, during the time period that I would normally feel really exhausted in the afternoon, I felt pretty energised for a change. I am really loving this experience so far and I can’t wait to try more exciting vegan recipes!

I have also been super busy with my schoolwork and assignments, so I haven’t had much time to be able to look into many educational sources and really delve deeper into the science and the vegan belief system just yet. However, I am headed into the weekend and I have had many people suggest some really interesting websites, documentaries, YouTube channels, recipes etc. so I can’t wait to spend some time having a deeper look into these resources!

newbie

I've finally decided to open my eyes, and face the truth.

There is no other way, going vegan is only right!!!! I was lying to myself for so long, and I wish i new what I know now the. But every day is a fresh start, a chance to live my life the right way. Becoming vegan has so far been easy, but I'm struggling to find my voice. Telling those close to me that I'm plant-based, worries me because I dont want to deal with the harsh comments and judgement. I know I'll have to eventually spill the beans, but maybe after I've built up a stronger argument and become more confident.

It blows my mind that not everyone can admit to the truth and that the "standard American diet" is unhealthy and cruel for ALL.

So day 7 of being vegan (-ice cream twice 😶) and I am crazy bloated from the rapid increase of fiber in my diet. I am hoping my body will adjust soon, but in the mean time I look 5 months pregnant. 😮🤰Thankfully my bloated belly is causing me minimal pain. #newlyvegan #vegan #bloated #newlifestyle #adjusting #seehowthisgoes #trysomethingnew #fit #fitspo #fitness #fitgirls #fitchick #motivation #active #activelife #beactive #goals #veganlife #veganlifestyle #day7

Hey Guys!!

So I recently became a vegan and I really would like to stay vegan!! But being raised on junk food the cravings are really getting to me. I tried to find some recipes online but I can't find any I really like!! So I'm just sticking to all different types of fruit. Do you guys have any recipe recommendations? 🍌🍓

My growing list of surprising vegan foods

2 days until my first full month as vegan! I’m so proud. 

I keep learning about foods that are surprisingly vegan. I’m not into tons of processed stuff, but when I do have a craving it’s nice to know I can grab something convenient. Like these:

-Oreos (this is the one everyone knows though.)

-Justin’s Dark Chocolate PB Cups (Even though they say “contains milk”, their website begs to differ.) (Also am rejoicing because reeses are literally my FAVORITE chocolate--such a good alternative!)

-Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup

-Trader Joe’s Chocolate chips 

-Nutter Butter Cookies (fave!!!) 

-British Crumpets (most)

-Skinny Pop cheddar popcorn

-Lindt excellence chocolate in 70% 85% and 90%

-Nature Valley PB granola bars

-Chocolate teddy grahams (not that I really eat these, was v fascinated tho.) 

This weekend I’ll go home and see how I do there with the new change, esp. for 4th of July! 

First, I’m going on a vegan food adventure tonight in Williamsburg with a friend. Vegan pizza + ice cream .... then back to more balanced healthier options hahah
