Good luck to you! No, seriously, good luck! Improving oneself is always a good thing (obviously) but it is also very hard. Why is that? Why is it so difficult to obtain/maintain a healthy lifestyle yet so easy to unravel it? Meh.

I'm not a very healthy eater. At all. I enjoy healthy foods, don't get me wrong, it's just...something always gets in the way of that. I'm not sure what. I keep using money as an excuse, saying that eating healthy is expensive. And, to me, it is. But eating unhealthy these days is also expensive. Eating period is expensive! So now I must think of a different excuse! That, or actually get off my butt and improve my own diet. All I need is a little something called motivation, sustained with a little something else called will-power...*takes a swig of pepsi*

I don't know what to suggest to help you out. Over time I will chew over this like a good piece of beef jerky (ha-ha) and think of something for you :) But for now I shall merely take up space commenting uselessly, ponder over your progress (and wonder what will happen next like one does over a reality tv show) and see if you inspire me enough to improve my own diet. Yesh. It shall be interesting!

Again, good luck! *hugs* Here's to a healthier lifestyle! (And don't mind my snark--that's just who I am on the 'net. I really do hope you achieve this goal of no meat for 30 days! *cheers you on*)

Thanks Danny. Great to hear from you, too. My celebration plan is some hardcore BBQ (my girlfriend's suggestion), and after that, I do plan on trying to stick to some healthier habits. Depending how this goes, maybe staying veg, but it's hard to imagine that at this point. We'll see in a couple weeks.

I'll look for some of that sausage for sure.

Also, Green Building Exchange looks awesome.

ah the old 30 days with no meat, I did that back in June (+fish). I decided to go on a 30 sobriety (no booze and pot) and just so happenned to be reading a book called "the food revolution" and it is basically the vegetarian arguement. So I ultimately decided to throw that in the mix as well.

I made it through (after the first week it gets easier) and celebrated with a big juicy Neiman ranch burger and then it was onto the vegetarian lifestyle. Ive stuck with it so far with only 2 binges (fucking jack in the box).

anyways if you can find a burrito place that will replace the meat with mushrooms, life will be easier.

morning star soy sausage is good (the fakon sucks), soyrizo is the shit and you better get used to tofu.
