I kept up my vegan pledge for a solid 2 1/2 weeks. I ate 99% vegan and I did not miss or crave any of my old foods. I thought this was something I would be able to keep up...something I could consider maintaining for the rest of my life.
....then life got in the way.
Veganism is not, and may I repeat NOT, convenient. Going out to eat was constantly a struggle. Hanging out with friends was always a struggle. Not because they forced me to eat dairy and meat, but because vegan foods are not offered at many places.
I got tired of putting so much effort into my food...especially when I have had to be 100% focused on school since the end of the semester is coming up.
I still eat vegan foods 50% of the time...but I also eat whatever I want 50% of the time.
Therefore, I am not vegan.
I am not even vegetarian.
I tried, and I failed. Forgive me.
Maybe one day I will try again. Maybe when I have a job and I can afford to buy food. Maybe when I don't have to worry about school work 24/7 and actually have time to cook meals. Maybe when I have the time and energy to put the time and energy into veganism.
...yep.
Operation vegan pledge: Failed.
