TRUE LIFE: i was vegan for a week

DAY 1:

"you got this chels, look at all the fresh vegetables."

"uh, yeah. um, this will be fun.."

{conversation with myself due to the lack of my daily scone}

DAY 2:

"VEGAN for a week?! PSH, try vegan for a month"

{carrots, cucumbers, onions, bell peppers, spinach, and sunflower seeds= fresh and delicious dinner} okay yes i would have killed to have some feta crumbled on top.

DAY 3:

trip to the grocery store.

"ALL I WANT IS DOVE CHOCOLATE!!"

"really?" grocey store worker.

"no. just show me where the celery is."

{my favorite new on the go lunch- almonds and PAPAYA&STRAWBERRY smoothie.}

DAY 4:

after a minor breakdown at the grocery store... i was back on track with a positive outlook on my last 4 days after loading up on some delicious vegan friendly food! i put down the chocolate cake and picked up the hummus.

DAY 5:

PB&APPLES! HUMMUS & PITA CHIPS! cinnamon life! RICE & VEGGIES! SOY LATTES! delicious nutty bread! CARROT STICKS! 3 cheers for all this delicious food!

DAY 6:

i may or may not have dreamt about cheese. all of it. any of it. heck, at this point i would have taken a slice of kraft's american cheese.

{had to get some vegan treats. verdict: ALPHABET COOKIES are DELECTABLE! chewy chocolate chip cookies- you taste about as good as you look. not good}

DAY 7:

in the end, i really did feel so refreshed every morning. you know none of that morning after a tub of ice cream or too much cheese on the crackers feeling. and while maybe it'll be a while before i go a whole week as a vegan, but there will definitely be some non-dairy days that will pop up frequently in my life!

i can honestly say i went a whole WEEK without cheating! {i was so close too! i literally heard cheesecake calling my name.} so OFFICIALLY i've never been VEGAN, and now i have!

{i love my oranges. and i think i broke the world record for how many i ate this week!}
