I thought this would be impossible, until I accidentally ended up at Right by Nature in the Strip District, where I almost fainted at all of the amazing things they stock. My most exciting find was frozen vegan burritos!! I keep trying to find the downside to them, but they are 1.Vegan 2.Frozen/pre-portioned 3.Made of natural ingredients 4.Delicious! So the only real downside is the cost... I think they were $2.25 each. But I guess if I have to compromise on something, that's what I'd want it to be! Sure, I can get a burrito the same size at Taco Bell for 99 cents, but ugh... I've eaten Taco Bell once in the last 2 months or so, and I can't imagine doing it again any time soon. I'm seriously reformed here! I want to be able to trust the companies/foods I put into my body, and unfortunately, that comes with a price in this country.
For work lunch today, Dustin took a veggie fajita burrito and I took the spinach tofu one. I added some hot sauce on top because I don't like a too dry burrito:
I'm still having a tough time tasting anything thanks to this cold, but I can tell these will be life-altering. I WILL seek out more things like this so I can track what I eat starting today. Going vegan ended up knocking me further off track than I ever imagined it would, but then again, I never imagined it would stick like this! I am so proud of Dustin and myself, even if we took a while to get back on the weight loss wagon. This is the biggest lifestyle change anyone could imagine for the two of us, and I think it's only going to help us now that we're starting again. I no longer crave pizza late at night. I don't think soda is an acceptable replacement for water. I don't REQUIRE something chocolate after every meal.
Everything has changed on the inside. Now it's time to change the outside too.
