Six and a half months later...
I've decided that I now have two Birthday's. My original Birthday: 8/20/1982 and my Vegetarian Birthday: 3/23/2010.
Its almost as if the first twenty-seven and a half years of my life (OMG I'm 28! ah!) have been lived somewhat in the dark...Most people can relate when I compare my Vegetarian rebirth to a spiritual awakening and that is exactly what it feels like.
Being vegetarian means a whole lot more to me than just not eating meat. I am conscious of everything that has to do with my body inside and out. Dedication and investigation are keys to my success...researching what makes a healthy balanced diet. What do I need to satisfy daily vitamin/nutritional values? Eight months after my awakening I have noticed many improvements:
Stronger healthier hair/nails/skin ( I also have not dyed my hair since becoming VEG)
Increased energy
Healthier digestive tract
Less back/neck problems
Sleep GREAT!
Cook dinner 3+ times a week
I've lost 10lbs (actually that is just the past 30days: my theory is that a body needs time to expel all the toxins from 27yrs unhealthy living)
This success is not just my own. The people in my life, my loved ones, have been extremely supportive and that makes all the difference! It can sometimes be tough trying to take the path less traveled and initially there are doubts. There are always obstacles. Knowing I have a support system there to boost the mental strength needed to keep striding towards my goal allows me to be fearless!
