Here I am... months later... I'm still a vegetarian (goal = vegan) and I haven't made much progress on my weight loss. I've been mostly vegan for the past 2 months, but have taken steps backwards on the weekends and ate pizza with my boyfriend :( I just picked up "The Kind Diet" by Alicia Silverstone this weekend - thanks for the 40% off coupon, Borders! I'm hoping that reading this will motivate me to finally adapt to the vegan lifestyle :)
I'll update again soon - I'm taking a food science course this quarter at OSU. I figure we'll probably go over all the nasty stuff I already know about the meat industry - even more motivation to finally go vegan! And I think I'll start reading "Diet for a New America" again (the book that convinced me to turn vegetarian 5 years ago).
Spring may be bringing positive changes :)
About Me
- mrock
- I moved to Columbus in Jan 08 from the Youngstown, OH area. I have a BFA in general fine arts and work full time at OSU. I'm currently taking a few classes including intro to galss blowing. I've been dating my boyfriend, David, since June 08. I'm working on becoming vegan and losing weight to maintain a more healthy lifestyle.
Never heard of Diet for a New America, but I guess that makes sense as I live in the U.K. Good to read that it had an impact on you.
