So I kind of "came out of the vegan closet" today. I was at lunch with a friend and mentioned that I wasn't eating dairy, specifically not saying the word vegan. Then she asked me if I was vegan and I said "yea, kind of...I'm trying...its a process." It didn't necessarily feel good in the same way that coming out as a vegetarian was, but maybe it'll be better when I mention it to my Mom. Why is something like this so important? I know that a lot of vegans believe in "spreading the vegan gospel," and that this could be a part of it...but why is this so important to me? I am not particularly occupied with whether I will or will not be accepted, but it seems strange that telling people about my veganism is on my to-do list.
Much like this blog, why share?
That said, I'm not doubting anything at all. Today I felt like I was eating "normal meals," as in I didn't fill that concerned about avoiding Dairy. I mostly just gravitated towards vegan things! HUZZAH!!!!
Now to find a non-leather belt ( I lost 10 lbs! Not a goal, but a noticeable change!)
