So, I’m three weeks into the “Great Vegan Experiment” and frankly I can’t tell a difference. I feel good, but really, I never felt bad. When I was talking with my vegan friend he relayed great tales of feeling fabulous, a disappearance of allergies, boundless energy and (now this is the part that really intrigued me) great weight loss.
He said about a month into his vegan lifestyle he got on the scale and he was down ten pounds. He went on to say that the weight loss was so substantial it actually scared him a little. The thought of “frighteningly substantial weight loss” was just too much for me. I had to do it!
But now I’m three weeks into my animal-free eating and I haven’t lost a pound. Not one. Sigh. I guess the extra wine I’ve been drinking (to distract me from the fact that I’m not eating cheese) is probably the culprit. But geez, I thought I’d at least see the scale dip a little.
Well, it is only three weeks, I’ll keep on for another week or so and re-weigh. I’m bound to see a difference sooner or later. I’m determined!
