I literally feel like I am eating myself out of house and home.  I mean, why is it so expensive to live a healthy lifestyle?  From gym memberships to gym clothes, from protein shakes to healthy eating and grocery shopping… it really starts to add up. 

About two years ago I made the choice to change my diet to vegan, cold turkey (no pun intended).  I did a complete 180 by removing all eggs, meat, dairy products, and any other “animal-derived” ingredients from all of my meals.  I completely changed my way of eating  (my husband resoundingly maintains his carnivore status). 

Everyday I continue to learn new things about being a vegan: how to be vegan on a budget; how to cohabit with an unwavering meat-eater; places to eat that accommodate vegans; and how to become a vegan in whole, outside of just diet.  This site is devoted to my day-to-day journey in dealing with all of these challenges and sharing what I find along the way. 

When you have some time, take a look at the various categories to the right.  I will try to update this site throughout the week with interesting tids and bits that I find each day.  Don’t forget to subscribe before you leave so you can stay up-to-date with all of my latest finds.  Enjoy!
