My Meatlessness.

Going vegan is pretty high up on the priority list for 2015.

Now, this may come as a shock for those who know me, but I stopped eating meat mid November of last year.

 

 

 

I remember when Ebony of L4L went meatless for a month and I told her I couldn't do that because meat was my favorite food lol. But I suppose I knew deep down that it wasn't that good for me because I started a 'Meatless Mondays' shortly thereafter. Then one day my boyfriend's nephew and I were talking, and I was admiring him so much because not only was he an 18 yr old vegan, but he had been a vegan for most of his life. I was saying that it's very interesting and that if I had the willpower I'd do it too.

 

Holdup, wait, WHAT?

If I had the willpower?? Of course I do. And a few days later I gave up meat for a month.

It was only supposed to be until my birthday (Dec 19) or until Christmas, but when that time came, I just didn't crave it and I haven't had any meat since the first day I gave it up and I plan to keep it that way.

I still have fish about 2/3 times per week, but I intend to cut that down dramatically in the near future, and entirely by the end of the year.

 

 

What do I eat, you ask?

 

 

 

Well, I have been eating as per the RAW TILL 4 plan, created by Freelee the Banana girl on Youtube.

It sees me eating mostly fruit, with some vegetable until 4:00pm and a cooked meal thereafter. She has a vegan cooked meal, while I do a pesco-vegetarian (sometimes vegan) meal.

 

I feel so much better being meatless, oh yeah I don't have and dairy either, so my sinuses are so much better for it. I am still going through what they call a detox phase so all is not perfect, but I feel great and I'm not fiending for meat sooo, no need to reintroduce it into my diet.

 

I have been getting info from various sources, but mainly from Youtube. I'll leave you with a few videos to enlighten you about the dangers of animal products and the benefits of going vegan.
