Hi all,
For my challenge, I have decided to be vegetarian during the weekdays. I have a bit of experience here as previously I was a vegetarian for three years. I quit because I found I wasn’t getting enough of the right nutrients and began to notice changes in my energy levels – after a doctor’s trip I was labeled anemic. This time, however, I’m being more careful with what I put in my meals and ensuring that my body gets all the nutrients needed.
So far, I’ve received incredible support from my mother – she has brought me on shopping trips and helped me pick out all the foods I need to maintain a sustainable vegetarian diet. We’re a few days in and I’m feeling great – I’ve made some delicious meals for myself and it feels so good to be a part of such an amazing group! Good luck to everyone participating and I’m excited for our journey ahead!
