Today's commuter song to celebrate my new eating habits: Led Zeppelin, Tangerine! https://youtu.be/LJmfl7JjmCw
Two weeks of Cowgirl goes Vegan on a whole plant based lifestyle - nope don't call it diet, it is more. So what has happened so far:
My body is definitely changing. I lost 3 pounds this week which takes me to a total of 5 pounds in two weeks without going hungry away from a meal.
Yesterday, a colleague
asked me if I was on vacation because my face would be glowing. Nope, my
vacation will come up next Friday (imagine how gorgeous I will be after
those 2 weeks LOL).
My waist and tummy look smaller- I lost the weight at the right places instead of going down a bra size as with other diets (Big Kahuna very happy). My hair is not frizzy anymore and just looks healthier.
My glucose readings were never higher than 125 although I already decreased my night insulin by 5 units. I am not taking any pills. Not too shabby for two weeks, isn't it? My diabetes nurse will have a stroke when she sees my new lab tests because I used to be her worst patient with skyrocketing, roller coaster glucose readings. LOL.
I committed to three weeks of eating nothing with a face, no eggs, no dairy, no oils. I will never go back, having too much fun trying new vegan recipes and enjoy more life quality all around by not feeling so exhausted all the time.
My family are still carnivores but have started enjoying my food. Not in a million years would I have thought that I hear my Texan steak and potato husband rave about my lentil meatloaf and black bean burgers on the Barbie. Have a good Friday everyone!
