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.

ch ch ch chia!

Keep your eye out for these up-and-coming health foods!
Chia seed: omega-3, fiber, rich in antioxidants and minerals, makes you feel fuller longer due to its gelling properties.

Stevia plant: natural sweetener, doesn't affect glucose levels, 0 calories, FDA won't approve it since it would obliterate the artificial sweetener and sugar cane industries.



Day 55 Food Journal:
-kiwi
-oatmeal
-freeze dried Fruit Crisps
-steamed veggies, 2 veggie sushis, brown rice pilaf
-bbq kettle chips, couple bites of dark chocolate
-chili, dark chocolate almonds, other snacky foods from yesterday

Now that I've had some chocolates, I can't stop eating dark chocolate!  I love it.  I guess I've missed it.  However, I usually don't feel great after eating more than a few bites of it. Bleh.
