My Vegan Life

Hello lovelies!

I am really not doing well on this blogging consistently thing am I? Well here's a little post for you guys :)

Surprise I'm a VEGAN... well sort of. Let me explain:

It is officially the season of lent, which is when you give something up for 40 days, aka until Easter. Last year I went gluten free, which while a challenge in some aspects was not really so tough. Maybe I was just accustomed to it from living with my one friend in university since she was allergic to gluten.

Anyway, this year I wanted to do something way more challenging and I heard or read somewhere that some person lives their life being a vegan before 6 pm. So I decided to go with that. Then my sister said she was giving up dessert so I matched it. Then my dad basically said I should go big or go home so I recrafted my resolution again.

 Here it is!
 5 days a week I am a full vegan and no dessert. The other two I am only vegan til 6 PM. Also, no alcohol (except St. Patrick's Day weekend).

I decided that the vegan before 6 wasn't enough of a challenge, so full vegan it is. I would explode without dessert, so I decided to give myself something to look forward to. And the alcohol is really just an excuse not to drink haha. I'm not really a drinker anyway, but it gives me more of a reason to not drink. Since I work at a bar, this is definitely helps strengthen the resolve.


So that's really it. On a side note, I was thinking of doing a vlog every once in a while about being a vegan. Thoughts?

Let me know if you have any tips, suggestions, or want some of mine! Oh and please do tell me: What did you give up for lent?

love always,
