12. Update - its been a month and its been a lot easier than I thought!

I have been trying countless new vegetarian recipes and having a blast cooking.

The best part - I had to go to the Dr for my yearly physical and my blood work shows a great improvement in blood sugar and lipids (I was near pre-diabetes last year and my cholesterol was starting to get high)! The past year I have been working out and losing some weight, but I know the healthier eating has really helped.


My husband has been embracing meatless much better these past few weeks - he has had some fish and seafood but no red meat or poultry, not even bacon. Watching Food Inc, and Forks Over Knives really made things click for him and he is enjoying eating healthier meals.

Your support has been awesome - thanks everyone!
