Vegan Update
Going really well so far, eating healthier than I ever have. I went cold turkey stopping to eat all meat, dairy and eggs. I am phasing out honey. I will, however, continue to wear my old leather, silk and wool clothing. Feel free to comment, I encourage discussion.

Just Watched Earthlings...
Becoming a vegan, right now. Giving all my food that’s meat or has animal products to my roommate, he’s thrilled. It shouldn’t be too hard, I honestly hardly eat meat, can’t drink milk since I’m lactose intolerant, don’t really like eggs. The only think I really love that I’m giving up is yogourt. And the hard part will be making sure processed food...

A Brief Note
I really appreciate all my followers so I always want to be honest. I just started an antidepressant/anti anxiety (SSRI) to treat my anxiety and moderate depression. The side effects have not been very fun. My meal plans/food diaries will probably be low for a while due to my significant decrease in appetite. I am not choosing to eat very low, I simply cannot force myself to eat all that much....

Breakfast: Peach cup
Lunch: Half of a bagel with 1/2 tsp butter
Dinner: Out with my parents (they’re visiting to help me move)
How I View Beauty
When I say beauty I don’t mean a bathroom filled with a multitude of makeup and other products. I do though, mean outside beauty. These thoughts came to me while watching the make over scene in The Princess Diaries (I put it on in the background while packing up my apartment). You could view that scene as defining a princess by her beauty. That all that makes Mia a princess is that fact...

Banff
While watching Brotherhood 2.0 and perusing the comments I found that people thought the following about Banff, Alberta:
That it is in The States
That it is near Toronto.
That it is in B.C.
That it is pronounced and spelled Bamf.
That gave me a good chuckle.

intermsofhealth asked: Your pizza crackers recipe looks amazing, haha. I'm trying to find more "exciting" snacks that utilize the microwave, because that's all I have atm here in the dorms, haha. YAY! Thank you!!
Texting Complaint
When your friend texts you “what’s up?” and you respond right away and then they never respond back -__- silly lazy friends.
Slow Start To The Day
Slept in very late, had some pretty crazy awesome dreams too. Despite this I am still feeling quite tired. And of course I have a million things to do today. Going to have a cup of lemon grass and Yerba mate tea and see what I can accomplish before my organic chemistry lecture at 5 pm.

What I Really Want
I’ve decided the Christmas present I really want is to lose weight. So I’m starting now and I hope to lose 15 lbs by the 25th of December. This is going to be my most serious attempt ever at losing weight. Here’s hoping I can stick to it. I will post later about my clean eating and workout plans.

Exercising Again
Just did Level One of the 30 Day Shred after not exercising for 6 weeks. I kind of want to die, even though 2 months ago I could do Level One no problem. I need to exercise regularly…
