Today is day 8. That means we made it through a whole week without giving up or cheating. Right now the main struggle is dealing with all the noise from others. "Ugh, you're still doing that?" "I don't get how you can't have meat." "What are you, some kind of PETA activist?" I'm tired of explaining how it was a choice to be disciplined and to choose something that is challenging. It's weird how much one week has made a difference. I feel better, less tired, and more focused. Yesterday I went with my family to McDonalds and I didn't even want anything. That's crazy. Usually I want so many things at McDonalds that I'm always sad when I leave that I didn't order something else. The menu looked gross to me. I will say that my cravings for a delicious chocolate shake have not subsided though. I'm going to have to figure out vegan recipe for that.
Breakthrough number 2: I got Ryan to cook something! Granted, he threw like 6 ingredients in a blender to make a salad dressing, but still baby steps. It was getting exhausting cooking every single day without help after 8 hours of working.
One last plug: THANKYOU to peasandthankyou.com. Best blog ever.
