A Vegan Hiatus

by The Imperfect Vegan on December 15, 2009

I started this blog in May as a  support structure to keep me on the Vegan path.  It worked!  Hurray!  Now, 7 months since my first posting and 9 months since I made the shift, I’m proud to say that I feel complete for now.  I may be back, but I don’t feel like I need the additional support.

Successes?  I think so.  No meat since mid-March 2009.  At home I’m nearly 100% vegan.  When dining out, or at a friends home, or while traveling, I occasionally have fish.  A few eggs have slipped in over the last 9 months (but truly just a few), there may have been some milk in some dishes but not in anything I prepared or intentionally ordered, and some cheese has entered the scene.   Cheese has been the greatest challenge for me.  I never buy it but I do have it out occasionally … no kidding I’m sure I only eat 5% or less of the amount of cheese I used to consume.

Other successes … looking good and feeling good, being aligned with my values, and sparing the lives of many loving creatures that walk our Earth.

So I may be back if I fall off the wagon, or perhaps I’ll have a new take on the Vegan adventure to share.  Meanwhile, be well, eat well, and love well.
