On December 31st, 2021, I decided I wanted to find a new hobby that would get me off my butt and moving, improve my life, and contribute to my health. I surprisingly landed on cooking.
I am 33 and I've never known how to cook. I jumped in feet first and the first dish I ever cooked for myself was a delicious, vegan Moroccan vegetable stew. It is now my favorite meal! I'm so tickled that a plant-based diet can be delicious:-) I never knew that's what I wanted, but it's all I want to eat now.
My husband and I are eating at least two plant-based meals a week, and have cut out all refined sugar and carbs. Fat in our diet now comes from nuts, olive oil, fish and lean meat. All of our carbs are complex carbs- quinoa, chickpeas, oats, whole grains.
Here are the amazing benefits I've noticed after just three and a half weeks of plant-based eating:
My skin has a natural, pink rosy glow.
I've grown closer to my friends and family ( and made new friends) through sharing my recipes and success stories.
It turns out that I'm a rather inspiring person and people are really interested in what I have to say.
My aches and pains are greatly diminished.
I'm fully alert and energetic during the day and my concentration is stronger.
I'm happy and very satisfied with my life.
I truly cannot believe that plant-based eating could change my life this much, but in 3 and 1/2 weeks I feel transformed. I can't wait to see how else I transform and what's next! I feel unstoppable and like the sky's the limit!
