Vegan Day 1










I am officially nervous and terrified that I am going to fail at this challenge. This morning I woke up and made myself a Vegan toaster pop but the whole time I was thinking "This would be so scrumptious if I had a glass of milk." I also realized that coffee is going to be a small problem this week but I need to stop looking at the negative. I have class until 11 today and I think I am going to search out the dining hall for some vegan options and then go walk the loop. I need to start searching for something for dinner. I am craving a sweet potato so maybe i can incorporate that somehow. I had a few setbacks this past weekend but I am hoping to work through them this week and start having a little more faith in myself along with a little more self control!

Today has actually been going awesome! I went to 2 local markets to get some food for the week and found some really yummy snacks.

Breakfast: Amy's Strawberry Toaster Pop: 150 calories
Snack: Apple Chips and Dry Roasted Edamame : 200 calories
Lunch: 1/2 of an Amy's Noodle Bowl: 145 calories
Snack: Apple and Peanut Butter and Tomato chips with Vegan Sour Cream and French Onion Dip: 390 calories
Dinner: Homemade Pesto and pasta : 284 calories
Dessert: Banana with 1 tbs Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter and 1 tbs of regular peanut butter : 280 calories

Total: 1,449 calories

  1. You can do it! I did it once for a month. What got me through? I went to see this guy www.madcowboy.com speak. He scared the beejesus out of me. He can scare the beejesus out of you too.

  3. They are fantastic and a lot of them meet all sorts of dietary restrictions! My favorite thing about them though is that you can actually pronounce all of the ingredients. I highly recommend trying them!
