Vegetarian Escapades: Day Two


Eyru

Day two!

 

Today was a pretty chill day. An egg with some hash browns for breakfast, and beans and noodles for lunch, so there's my protein for the day. Supper was my first real challenge, because we had roast beef and mashed potatoes for the first time in, like, ever, but I managed to stave off the temptation and just took extra potatoes and vegetables instead.

 

Also a huge bowl of salad. Because salad is delicious. P:

 

Changing topics, I'm starting to realize that one of the trickiest parts about my going vegetarian is that I don't like tomatoes (cue horrified gasps). I've never liked tomatoes, for as a long as I can remember. I'll eat ketchup and tomato sauce, and I'll eat tomatoes in a sauce or a chili as long as I can't taste them, but both the taste and the texture of whole or chunky pieces really throw me off.

 

I still try them from time to time, simply because I really want to like tomatoes (they're so versatile! and healthy!), but I haven't seen a breakthrough yet. We'll see what happens, I guess.

 

Thanks to HH and Janus for those huge paragraphs of encouraging advice on my last post. You guys rock! :)

 

There's not much else for me to write about today (it was a pretty nice, relaxing day), so I'll close it here. A reminder, though: we're coming up to 1,000 comments pretty quickly, and I do have something planned for that!

 

(note that is not an invitation to spam the comments dont kill me deevee)

You're off to a solid start! I've never done a vegetarian diet bfore but I have had a "green smoothie diet" which was okay, though I didn't particularly like the smoothies that much. HOWEVER, I do know that those smoothies, with all their raw, green content, did miracles to my immune system so I don't doubt the power of a vegetarian diet when it's done properly. Props on the salad!

 

(I also dislike tomatoes. You are not alone.)
