Veggie transformation - Day 1

Just a quick update on my little veggie experiment. Yesterday, Thursday, was Day 1 of my little experiment to see if i can survive on being a veggie and to see what its like not to eat meat. You know what...it feels great! I feel much less a hypocrite for sticking to my convictions and beliefs, i know its only one day, but its the first time in a long time I've gone through a day without eating meat at any point. Obviously i know it was only the first day of it, but it was lush, plus it worked out a lot cheaper doing the shopping for the weekend, only cos £9!!! And £1 of that was a rather lush and gloriously unhealthy Belgian bun! YUMO!

Yeah, so for breakfast, i had shreddies with raisins, which i always have, lunch in work consisted of strawberries,melon plus a nice foccaccia pizza thing with roasted veg on top, which was gorgeous! Then for tea, we had cheese and spinach ravioli with roasted veg (told you i loved roasted veg!) sauce complete with Quorn meatballs, which tasted rank in all honesty! Obviously they didn't contain the crap that meat meatballs contain, which is good, but they just didn't taste very nice, but I'm not giving up on them, i think with the right sauce and in the right thing, they could potentially be nice, time will tell though, its all so new to me so i guess I'm going to find stuff i don't really like along the way.

Today, well for tea, i think its a sort of pannini pizza thing with olives and peppers and onions, together with some garlic bread, plus i might even crack open a bottle of white vino as its a Friday!

So yeah, times are good. I'm still excited about ditching meat, and still think its something that i could do without, or certainly something that i can do with cutting back on severely.

Peace out
