Many people may find this as a shock to them, but I have decided to become a vegetarian. In fact, today is my first day of it. I've eaten so far: mixed fruit, and soy milk. I was actually really surprised at how much the soy milk really filled me up. I've noticed that vegetarian meals (aka. veggie dogs, veggie burgers) are a little more expensive than foods that contain meat-products.
I've wanted to do this for a while, so I figured I'd give it a go! A lot of people don't support my decision, but for those who do: THANKS! It's ridiculous how much vegans/vegetarians get criticized for their food choices and their lifestyle. Veganism is a different lifestyle. But, for me, I know this will be easy. I've always eaten a lot of fruits and vegetables. I never really ate much RED meat... I hear a lot of vegetarians telling me that seafood is NOT meat. I don't really know.... I think that answer is going to require some more research. I'll get back on that topic.
I'll be working today from 1:30-10.
God bless!

I promise that going vegan will be easy! I have been vegan for a little over two years now, and haven't looked back once! I feel amazing physically, and I love knowing that I am doing my best to not contribute any harm to the world.
ReplyDeleteSeafood IS meat, and I don't know why some "vegetarians" claim that it isn't. All "seafood" animals are categorized in the animal kingdom, and seafood comes from living, breathing animals. If you want to eat it, that is your choice - but know that it isn't vegetarian. "Meat" is just a word for flesh from dead animals - which is what seafood is... Are fish, lobsters, crabs, etc. vegetables? No. :)
Good luck! You'll love being veg!
