Time to Cleanse

I have decided that the week after my birthday (because I'm sure I'm going to eat like crap since only once a year do you get to eat the yummy stuff you normally don't eat) I am going be a vegetarian for one month. I was going to go vegan... but then I thought about all the protein I'd need from somewhere and since I didn't want to deal with ( Read more... )

That sounds awesome!!! It will be hell, but I'm sure you can do it! One month won't be that long. I hope you come up with some good recipes to share with the rest of us!

I'm betting on the one month being short to keep me going ;). Weekends are going to be hard since I'll be home for longer periods of time.

tempeh is pretty delicious, and also morningstar products if yah want some meat-flavored soy things. also, i found that cutting out my favorite sweets = really difficult, but having a smaller portion, like, say, 1/2 cup of ice cream every other day helps me from splurging and eating 6 cups in one day (haha).

goooood luck! <3
