Hi,
This week went by fast! I would have to say it wasn’t easy, I had to be kept reminded not to eat any meat based products. Sometimes I forget, but luckily I didn’t.
After this week ended, I realized that I feel more healthy and lightweight and I also have gained more energy from eating plant based diet.
I guess I have to say that I’ve improved in some skills from doing this challenge, such as my cooking abilities got a bit better, as I found many delicious recipes online and cookbooks, as you can see above that’s one of my favourite dish from this week.
As well as I started to see the interest my family was taking, even my friends were curios too. This made me happy that people were interested in what I was doing and asking questions based on this challenge and how it affects us.
The hardest part of this challenge was being cautious of the food you are eating, for example some packaged foods contains hidden gelatine like mousses or marshmallows and jellies, but I got used to it after 4 days later.
After all, I am happy to say that I do see small changes of me and around me.
Very excited to see what’s next.:)

cCHANGE Team commented on Day 8: Chickpea salad 4 years agoHi Zinaida, The food in your photos does look really delicious. If you have the time, I would love it if you could post a link to the recipe you mention above. I am almost vegan (I think it is called flexitarian :)) and I am also always on the lookout for really good vegetarian meals. It's great to read about your week. It looks like you learnt quite a lot and saw a shift in your family and friends towards curiousity. Questions and enquiry are great ways of opening up spaces for new conversations to emerge. They can be invitations to deeper inquiries that can help us challenge some of the assumptions we hold. Albert Einstein is often quoted as saying, “Don’t listen to the person who has the answers; listen to the person who has the questions.” So encourage your family and friends to keep the questions coming. Thanks for sharing your learning and growth, have a nice weekend, Best, Leonie at cCHANGE. Respond
