So, only one week remains in our month-long experiment.
Here are some of my personal observations:
1. For the most part, this has been easier to handle than I originally thought it would be.
2. Even though I still feel deprived, I really don't miss taboo foods as much as I thought I would.
3. My energy/excitement level was very high at the beginning of the month but it has been waning. I think that's because the newness is wearing off and it's becoming more of a lifestyle than an experiment.
4. The food items I'm wanting the most are not the ones I thought I would miss. For instance, I've really been pining for ranch dressing and sour cream, but I don't miss meat at all.
5. I wouldn't mind continuing on with this veganism in the next month, but I do want to be able to indulge from time to time--especially when I'm on vacation or out with my family.

Did any of your assumptions in the beginning come true? Do you think you will continue and indulge occasionally?
ReplyDeleteAlso when did Castleford start doing senior projects? I never had to do one, but I wish we would have been required to...yes I'm a nerd.
I know exactly how you feel about the whole energy/excitement level. You can compare your experience to mine here. It was and I guess still is pretty new, but I've gotten so used to it and living here has become normal.
