Everything is still going great! Today I only had one salad instead of two, however I ate twice the servings of Green veggies. I had extra Kale and Asparagus. I have been so busy, and will be for the next week, I got ahead tonight and cooked a little extra.  I made a veggie chili, and my salad for tomorrow.  The Chili came out great; I used tomatoes, red peppers, zucchini, black beans, and tofu.

 
Today was another great day at work, even though I only got about 5 hours of sleep, and worked 11 hours and never got tired.  I have been in such a great mood since I got back, I can’t believe how much more energy I have and how great I feel.  A customer noticed, and I couldn’t stop talking about my week and everything I learned!  Now she is really excited for me too.
 
I’m also finding a lot of skepticism! It’s interesting when someone says they are vegan for ethical reasons or personal beliefs, no one really questions or says anything. However, when you say you are taking on a vegan-based diet for a more nutritious lifestyle, people are skeptical and argumentative.  Quite frankly I’m finding it pretty aggravating. I’m not telling people they have to eat this way, I’m saying this is something new and I am going to give it a try.  So far I feel great, which is motivating me even more!
