If the challenge was still going, today would be day 35. Remember when I wrote that I didn't know what would happen when it was over, well, I'm sticking to it. I am a Vegan. I don't want to eat anything from an animal...no meat, no dairy, no egg. I will include a cooked meal in my life and when I am out and about at other's homes or restaurants, I will make a conscious effort to choose the healthiest option and eat what friends have prepared(as long as it doesn't contain animal products). I feel great! I don't want to go back to what I was doing before. And it's not from a weight loss perspective, it's from a nourishment perspective. Not only am I physically nourished, but my emotions, my mind and my soul are nourished.
Today, we all gathered to celebrate our triumph of making it through the 30 days, to talk about what we learned, what we will continue to do in the future. We had a potluck and I can honestly say it is the very first time I have been able to eat every single thing at a potluck.
We also weighed in and measured ourselves to compare and contrast.
My results:
I lost a total of 21.5 pounds and 4% body fat.
I lost 1/4 inch around my neck, 1 inch around my bicep, 1/2 inch around my forearm, 2 inches around my chest, 4 1/2 inches around my waist, 2 1/2 inches around my hips, 2 inches around my thigh, 2 inches around my calf and 1/4 inch around my ankles.
Peace :)
