Being a Veg - Day 1

Tuesday, July 6, 2010

This new direction in my blog is more for my benefit than anyone else's. I want to be able to track my new path in this journey of life.

Today, I made the choice to become a vegetarian. I'm not doing it because I think meat is BAD, or because I'm joining the PETA movement. I'm doing it because I think it's healthy for you. I want to see what the benefits are of a vegetarian lifestyle.

So here goes. The journey began this morning and I am more excited than anything. I'm excited to see the recipes I can find and what I can make. We have decided to be ovo-lacto pescatarians. That means we eat eggs, milk, and fish (mainly Ryan 'cause I still am not a fan of fish). After grocery shopping today, I feel like I have more options and am not restricted by my new choice at all.

That's all for now (mainly because my cat keeps screaming at me since Ryan left).
