Learning the lesson the being a skinny bitch is not easy...

So some of you may know I was a vegan for a minute...or 2...but some where in the midst of working for a food and beverage company with chicken wings that are out of this world, and dating a man that doesn't understand the word vegetable...I have fallen short of this commitment. So what better time to start than today, July 1st.
Commitment is hard. Whether it be to a diet, a relationship, a friend, job, heck a television show, it's difficult.
The few people I've talked to about this have listed the abundance of great food no longer on my menu, and most I can shrug my shoulders to. But something as simple as cream in my coffee to the egg in the cookie dough, you dont realize how many animal bi products are incorporated into your diet.
Take this morning for example. I went to robeks. I always get a peanut butter and banana power smoothie (morning protein hellloooo) but it has milk and yogurt. Blah. So I ask the not so polite girl at the counter for a soy option. You don't do dairy she asks. Um. No. I'm vegan. We have soy. That's 2 dollars more. Holly guacamole! (thank god I can still eat that) so I'm living a clean lifestyle and my pocket book suffers? I should get a discount!
So lesson learned. Being a skinny bitch is no easy task. But hey. It's a commitment. At least for July ;)
