Lent is...OVER!

We have come to the end of the Lenten season. As we all know, my goal was to go vegan. Over the past few years, I have been successful. This was no doubt going to be a piece of (vegan) cake. Well, I'm here to type...I FAILED! May I also add, miserably. I can make the excuse that I was weak because I wasn't eating enough, not educated enough about what I could eat, or you can freely insert your excuse for me (here). The fact is, I just wasn't dedicated. It was exceptionally hard preparing meals for my family while only eating fruits and vegetables. The smells of dinner that I could not eat had me weak. Thats when it hit me, I am a southern girl and I need southern food in my life. Ironically, I do not feel bad about not succeeding. I will continue eating healthy, I will continue taking random months off from eating meats and I will continue to proclaim I will start work out on Monday. Make that next Monday.

    Going vegan is a big step. It's definitely a difficult when your not educated in what you can eat. Were human so at the end of the day were not going to starve ourselves. As long as we eat in moderation I feel anybody should be able to eat how they please.

    I feel for you. I understand. I proud of you for even attempting. You are one brave young lady. I love food and I hate limiting myself.

    I agree with Iesha,I hate limiting my food although I must admit, I don't eat much. However, I've noticed in recent years that I will eat in moderation even if sometimes I want more food. I don't feel I'm limiting my food in this instance because I just do it without even thinking about it. Besides I don't want my stomach to hurt.

    Kudos to you because I know that purposefully limiting your food takes willpower especially when you have the capacity to eat a lot more.
