Farm to Fridge - The Truth Behind Meat Production (by mercyforanimals)

This video made me want to cry. 

I just found my mom looking up vegan recipes and food blogs online. She wants to go to a restaurant that serves a lot of vegan food. She wants to buy virgin coconut oil. And she wants to stop buying all the crap food and chocolate candy bars and high-fat dairy that we have been filling our bodies with for far too long.

I AM SPEECHLESS RIGHT NOW. SPEECHLESS!

Today I ate the most delicious, healthy salad ever. Romaine lettuce, spinach, cranberries, edamame, chickpeas, corn, carrots, cabbage, quinoa, raw pecans, pumpkin seeds, and balsamic vinaigrette. It was freaking massive. I also had some soy yogurt with chocolate syrup, cinnamon, strawberries, kiwis, and a bit of a green smoothie mixed in.

Carbs and fats are PERFECTLY healthy for us, as long as it’s carbs from whole grains/vegetables/fruit/beans and fats from nuts and good oils. People who think carbs and fat are evil make me sad. They are essential nutrients.

I discovered something completely awesome today: I’ve cut back on my refined sugar intake so much that lettuce tastes sweet to me now. I’m not even exaggerating. Holy shit it’s awesome.

In other news, today I did Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred Level 1 for the 3rd day in a row and my ass is fucking BEAT. My legs are really strong but my arms are super weak. I hope to see some improvement in that area soon!

1. Yes I am perfectly healthy thank you very much.

2. I count chickens as an animal

3. Animal crackers can be part of my diet. You’re not clever

4. If I couldn’t survive then how am I here?

5.  I can get iron and protein from other sources.

6. I do assure you could live without it.

7.  Fish also count as animals

8. I am making a difference, even if it is small

9.  Plants do not feel pain so shut up.

10. If you don’t like me you can suck it.

Josh & I went shopping, dropped like 150 bucks and bought all the necessaries to be Vegan.  We are doing a 30 day challenge but I have a feeling that we’re going to keep it up after the 30 days!  I’m stoked to make a better life, a better me, and drop some unwanted and unneeded pounds.  Not to mention, all the energy that goes along with being Vegan.

You definitely don’t need to spend that much to be vegan! I consider mock meat/dairy items an occasional treat food, since tbh they really aren’t that healthy for you AND they are expensive. All you really need as a vegan are fruits, veggies, whole grains, beans, seeds, and nuts. But when you are starting out, substitution foods like soy or coconut ice cream/yogurt/milk, daiya, tempeh, tofu, veggie burgers, protein powder, & sauces definitely help you make the transition. :)

MIGRAINES SUCK SO MUCH. If I don’t puke today, I’m going to be extremely lucky. Fuck. I’ve taken four excedrin migraine pills and half of a muscle relaxer and I’m typing this with an ice pack on my head. Yet I’m still in such bad pain I can barely even sit still. I know some other people out there must suffer from debilitating migraines too.

WHAT ARE YOUR MIGRAINE REMEDIES GUYS?

It’s not even funny.

Unfortunately I’m once again too full to drink anymore. WTF BODY??

Looking at this gif literally pains me rn
 

Plan of attack for tomorrow:
wake up and chug 8 cups of crystal light (6 of lime margarita, 2 of orange juice)
fuck yeah 

oh and before anyone says it, no I do not have diabetes.

my fasting blood sugar is 87!
