So I failed Lent... Already

This Vegan thing is so much harder than I thought it was going to be. I wasn't feeling so great the few days I was doing it and it takes so much planning. So I have changed my Lent challenge. Instead of being Vegan I am going to be vegetarian. I know I can do this.
I have also added reading the bible more so that is now apart of my lent challenge. That hit my during church today, I really liked what my pastor had to say about getting a better relationship with God.
Anyways, that is my lent update. I hope everybody else's lent season is going better than mine.
I hope to write soon and tell you about some of my spring break happenings.

Day 3

3rd day of being Vegan!! Although today wasn't very exciting. Last night I ended up having a veggie burger and some carrots and snap peas. Today I didn't have much to eat mainly because I slept in late so breakfast was kinda like lunch. Today I had a vegan English muffin with peanut butter and a clementine. Then for dinner I had japanese pan noodles with tofu.

I feel like I am doing pretty well but half way through I may have to go from vegan to just being vegetarian. We will have to see. Well that's all for today. Sorry my posts aren't very exciting.

So I lied to you...

Lent is actually 47 days, so I will have 45 more days after today of being vegan. Here is what I ate yesterday:
Breakfast:
- 1 Naked Drink
- 2 strawberries
-Some pineapple and some melon

Lunch:
- A salad with lettuce, kidney beans, gorganzo beans, carrots, peas, cous-cos, and sesame dressing.
-A Apple
-Pretzel crackers and hummus

Dinner:
-Vegetable sushi
-Vegan spaghetti

Today I had an apple and some peanut butter crackers for breakfast and the same lunch I had yesterday minus the apple. I am not sure what I am going to have for dinner tonight but something will be made. haha This will be much easier when I go home tomorrow for spring break because my house will have more things to eat and my momma will take me grocery shopping. So hopefully my recipes will get more exciting. I have some good recipes from a class I took last May so I am excited to make those and try new things as well!
I will update again tomorrow!! :D

40 Days and 40 Nights

Lent. It is something that I have done ever since I was really little growing up in a Presbyterian church. I always give up something that isn't too hard to give up like chocolate or fried foods. This year I am going VEGAN. For 40 days I will be vegan starting tomorrow. This means NO animal products at ALL. I am Pescatarian now so I am hoping that will help a bit. I have decided that each of those 40 days I will blog here to document how I am doing and what I am eating. It will probably take me a day or so to get good meals going but hopefully I can make some yummy things! So wish me luck! Tomorrow will be day numero uno! Until then...
