In my opinion, the easiest plan to follow will be the purple plan because there will be less tracking with 300+ zero-point foods to choose from. As soon as I discovered the purple plan had so many foods with zero points, I wondered, “What’s the catch? How can one offer 300+ free foods and the others not?”
The soup was vegan. I don’t know how to say it any other way. Maybe in a month or two it’ll be a creamy treat, but I just sat there mumbling to my friend the entire bowl. Things like “You know what would make this soup extra creamy? cream.” “Cheese would be good.” “Bacon. Need I say more?”
On a less depressing note, I lost 1.8 pounds this week doing WW on a whole-food plant based diet! See? It was a healthy rate to lose weight, I wasn’t starving, I ate when I was hungry, and I even chilled over the weekend without tracking to eat instinctively. My instincts work better after 5 strict days of WW because I have been measuring and can accurately eyeball a portion.
Here is a week’s worth of Vegan meals (which are also WW friendly), and the cost of the groceries needed to prepare them. I thought maybe this information would be useful for someone who won’t go vegan because “healthy food is expensive.”
People, I have arrived. While it may seem like the week flew by to you, it was a long one for me. And I did so good! It wasn’t a perfect week with WW or Whole-Food plant based or Vegan…but if I was going to give it a grade, I’d give my week a 95%. I’m like an over achiever over here!
Has it been six days already?! I thought that a year has passed…am I a year older? Official Vegan slogan today: “Veganism – You won’t really live forever, it’ll just feel like forever since you have eaten something delicious.”
Woe is me. I’m feeling ROUGH. I keep racking my brain trying to figure out why I feel this way because I am actually confused. Last night I got ample sleep, I’ve been eating consistent and nutrient packed meals. Is there some adjustment period to being strict vegan? I don’t know, I’ve got top men working on it.
Today started off alright. I still had some hope that being Vegan might not be too bad…but then James wanted Wendy’s for lunch. The key to success is to never arrive at a restaurant hungry, so I wolfed down some veggie enchiladas from yesterday and headed out the door.
Things are looking up over here because I have finally acquired groceries. I am actually excited about what is on the menu, but we’ll see how it actually tastes. Today I am tired because I went to bed too late and ran 7 miles at 5 am Still meat and dairy free on day 3, but it is not without extensive planning
Today I came up with the official slogan for the Vegan Diet, “Veganism: You’ll live forever, but want to die the whole time!” It’s not fair to say that about Veganism, because they eat things like potato chips and breaded fake meat patties…I don’t eat that. I eat Whole-Food Plant Based, so processed food is out.
