My People!

*hugs all of you* I never in my life thought I would find other people like me....lesbian is one thing, right? And then vegetarian/vegan is something completely different. I'm so glad you all exist and are here!

On a food note: I gave up sugar* 10 days ago and I am craving blueberry muffins. About to go make some and just sub in a mashed banana for the sugar. I love experimenting in the kitchen, but this one has me slightly nervous. Wish me luck!

*I promise I don't hate myself! :P

Living the vegan life style has been the one of the greatest changes in my life...really...began making green smoothies and running and the rest, well...really like night and day, on another planet. I am grateful to those green smoothies, and running.

I will say that the change was for me. One of my grand-nephews who just turned 14yo btw was vegetarian since birth! He does not touch/eat meat, always refused it, so we do eat together when I'm in the City. And I do cook what my other family members eat, chicken, fish, steak again when in the City...interestingly, my eldest sister doesn't eat red meat anymore...so, being an example and not preaching is the best policy for me and for my family.

Yes to those green smoothies!

I recently tried jackfruit as a "meat substitute." It gets a lot of hype but *shrug*- it wasn't my thing- looked cool but that's about it!

Speaking of meat substitutes (and yes, yes, I know some people don't subscribe to them at all), I'm back into Primal Strips as a treat (vegan jerky). My favorite is Thai Peanut flavor.

Have y'all tried the Field Roast Deli Style slices? I'm kind of in love with them; mainly because the grocery store next to my work offers them as a sandwich filling option! I went on a road trip once, stopped at Subway for their veggie sandwich (which is a mockery of a sandwich and never worth the $6 they charge me, I swear), and stuck these slices in to bulk it up.

I do have to figure out more high-protein options beyond fake meats. Those get expensive fast. I am working with a nutritional coach who gave me specific macros to hit, and when I can get 'enough' protein in, my body seems to do what I want (it to do) better and easier.

I've gone back to making smoothies every morning and wow! I can feel the difference already. I add in a scoop of Vegan protein powder and always use kale or spinach.

I tried some Tofurky sausage links and really liked them. And I finally tried the strawberry & rubarb flavor vegan yogurt I been wanting to try. I forget the brand...Noos?? Noosh? It starts with an "N" anyhow.

Noosa yogurt is made with milk. It is delicious, however.

The strawberry rhubarb is great. I have switched to Wallaby's no sugar added yogurt (also not vegan) but most of them only have 4 grams of natural sugar (in the fruit) and 8 grams of carbs.

This website does have vegan yogurts listed:

OMG! Thank you for pointing this out!! I guess I got my vegan yogurts mixed up! LOL! It was good, though.
