Well, I have managed to get completely off of milk. I am drinking only soymilk now, and no cows milk. I have only eggs and cheese left to go, the two hardest. I am hoping to be completely vegan by the end of the year. As well, I have some other goals.
Now that I am losing weight as a result of my new healthier diet, I find that I want to be off all my prescriptions as well. I am on two meds for blood pressure, one for heartburn, three for allergies. Thats allot for someone that is healthy. I plan on being off of prescription meds completely in three years. But not just that, I don't want to take claratin or benedryl either. I want to be med free exception in cases of rare need. I don't want to take anything to sleep but melatonin.
I know this is a hard goal to reach. But I really believe that if I eat right and get my self healthy, then there is no reason my body should need these prescriptions, right? Well, thats what I hope and strive for. I have no intention of doing this without my doctor who is 100% behind me. If I can't get my blood pressure under control naturally, then I will have to stay on those. But I will make a goal and see where it leads me.
As well, I have finally learned how to use tofu and make it good. My favorite is just to cook it up and toss it with some buffalo wing sauce. I love the spicy thats for sure! I also made some tofu stir fry the other night which was awesome!
All in all, I'm happy with my progress. Its harder than I originally thought, but easier than it seemed a month ago.
