Inspired by Alicia Silverstone's "The Kind Diet" and Michael Pollan's "In Defense of Food," we want to experience the vegan lifestyle to improve our health, boycott animal suffering, and reduce our carbon footprint.

Shannon: No longer flirting... this is for real!

Ok, it's time to take the leap... It's something I've been thinking about for years. This week while traveling for work I did a bit more serious flirting with being vegan and it wasn't hard. Some butter snuck into a meal and then I chose to eat some cheese a couple nights at dinner. I have to say that the cheese and butter were not the highlights of my meals. I was completely satisfied and I lost 3 lbs without even trying. I feel great!

I got home yesterday, went to the store, and prepared to go full force ahead into my new lifestyle.



My new bliss :)



Maybe the next two month test will turn into a lifetime commitment!

  1. I've been chatting with some folks here in the NY office who are vegan and man, oh man do the "been vegan for a while" people know the ropes. If you ever want any help satisying your dairy cravings or some such thing, email Kristen Limbert....she's a wealth of knowledge and has access to the knowledge of Jesse O. and Allison C. May the force be with you two brave women!
