As we reach the end of the challenge I feel for at least a few of you the challenge is becoming easier. As for me I think that that being a vegetarian comes with its ups and downs, sometimes my environment or daily schedule can have a tole on my eating habits and finding a enjoyable meat free dish is not always the easiest, but nevertheless it is doable. After doing our weekly reflection with Darren last week I realized that its not just about my challenge to not eat meat but its about all our challenges together, a little community. That’s what is making this challenge so interesting. Its not that I feel accountable for letting people down if I don’t stick to my challenge its more so I feel a sense of responsibility to keep up my end of the bargain.
I had my first vegetable korma the other night, it did feel like something was missing i.e. the meat but it still tasted like korma and was rather enjoyable.

Darren Clarke commented on Day 26: A community 4 years agoHi Ella. Firstly, well done on embracing the challenge from day one. The feelings of fatigue are normal but it's fantastic that you've viewed this from another perspective too i.e. a sense of community in something bigger than your individual challenge. I'm interested to know that when you feel fatigued with the challenge do you notice that you develop some background conversations with yourself or with others as you go about your day? Do you still have any beliefs that stop you from trying to make larger changes? Thinking back on learnings during your challenge what potential do you now see to influence climate and environmental problems? Looking forward to the final few blogs posts. Darren P.S. kormas are great. Perhaps you could post the recipe. I'm always looking for inspiration. Respond
