One day down...

I'm proud to say that I've successfully made it through my first day of veganism. The meat thing is easy for me...The eggs and dairy, not so easy. It's amazing how many things have eggs and dairy in them! And of course, I had a splitting headache for half the day yesterday...but I didn't cave. Thanks for all the support from my faithful readers :) The thing I was most worried about in this transition was how Alana would adjust...But as I watched her eat her very first "smart dog" yesterday (and eat every bite) and then a veggie burger (and eat every bite)...I took a sigh of relief. She doesn't eat "normal" food that well. I think it is actually going to be a fun time, trying new foods and seeing which ones we like and don't like. Justin said I needed to make him a list of what he CAN eat so he can take it with him to work. I think that's going to be next to impossible, unless he eats a very plain salad...Unfortunately, in the same book I read it spoke specifically about the horrible food the government provides the military. Need I say more? And Justin is a CS (culinary specialist, for you non-military people)...he works in the bake shop...this will most likely be hardest for him, but he is at least giving it a go! Gotta go find something to eat for breakfast. I'm not sure what I'll have, but it will not be Froot Loops with milk. Darn!
