Sweet Mother of Goodness

Ok,
So as you all know, well my one follower, you know, I have been vegetarian for 20 FULL days now. Quite the accomplishment if you know my track record. It has been difficult, some days I wake up craving a burger so bad I almost claw my eyes out...NOT pretty. But I've been doing it so I am pretty proud of myself.
Now I am saved. I recently was talking with a coworker about expanding my horizons, he said I needed to venture out and try something new with my palette. I was all, listen up homeboy, I just turned vegetarian, if that isn't expanding call me aunt freaking jamima. But whatever. We started talking about me being meat-less and how everyone always asks about it and how I deal with my cravings, which leads back to the eye gouging story. But we continued our conversation and he led me to the light. I have a serious addiction to Chinese food and have been lost without it. Until my glorious friend Matthew told me about Crystal Jade. It is a Chinese restaurant that serves vegan friendly dishes, meaning they are a little different from what I'm used to, but I'll take it just to get that small rush of what I used to feel for the food.

After that I did more research and found an awesome website. www.veganomaha.com This site makes my life. It has amazing blog posts, events, and a bomb restaurant guide, which means I can actually eat out again and fulfill every craving I have. Which leads to one glorious thing, no more eye gouging.

Mental Health

So, I've decided that mental health is just as good a physical health. Here I sit, hopped on up caffeine from the coffee I drank a few hours ago, I literally organized every shelf in my fridge and cupboards tonight i'm not amped up. NOT good.
But anyways, I think the first thing I love to do in life is laugh. I think it makes the world go around, point proven in the movie Monsters Inc. Anyways, I'm rambling. I think to laugh is the most important thing to do in life. So here you go,  my attempt to make you laugh.

A day in the life....

So I know it has been a couple days, but I'm starting to get used to this whole blogging action. So here we go.
I read the book, "Skinny Bitch" never read it. It will give you nightmares.
Upon that note, it has turned me into a vegetarian. I'm into day 5 meat less, which I think is pretty good seeing that I have will power like a invertebrate has a spine... All in all, I feel absolutely great. I don't ever feel bloated anymore and I never eat to much because veggies keep me feeling light. There is a restaurant in town called Venace? I may have botched the spelling. Anywho, they have an AMAZING garden vegetable salad, I encourage anyone to try it. Also, if this is new for you like it is for me you just have to trick yourself. Today I convinced myself that Cauliflower mixed with cheese is the same thing as mac n' cheese, and to be honest, it worked and ate those veggies like it was my job. But I don't know what to write about anymore so I'm finishing this right...now.

To new beginnings

So, I've never been huge on blogging, or eating healthy, or any of that crazy jazz, so I thought, what a crazy world, I'll blog about trying to be healthy! Killing two birds with one stone I guess you could say.

I've always wanted to be healthy, and it was easy when I was involved in sports in high school and college, it's easy to eat anything you want when you're running your skinny tush off for 3 hours a day with drills and games. Then after sports ended I started that well-known downward spiral. Eating the same, working out less, clearly not a healthy equation, I know. Processed foods are my weakness, and don't even get me started on candy, my sweet tooth could rot you mind. As of lately, all these bad decisions have been catching up to me and making me feel like crap, and above all, fat. I'm starting to learn I'm not a huge fan of it, at all. So here goes the start of a new beginning and a healthy new life!

dear god, pray for me.
