Vegetarian?
So, I did it.
Scared stiff by my latest physical, I took a leap of faith and joined my wife down the Vegetarian Road. To be honest, it hasn’t been a huge lifestyle change. I wasn’t eating mass quantities of meat in the first place – unless you count fast food burgers and pizza by the box!!!
The biggest change has come in the grocery aisles. I no longer grab food that just looks good or fills and urge I might have at that moment. No, now every shelf item is scrutinized by it’s nutrition facts label. Low fat, low sodium and low cholesterol. I’m starting to grow fond of tofu and rice cakes and have a LONG way from the first time I tried them.
I think it’s going to stick. If my energy levels stay high, the scale keeps getting lower and I can assist my chances of spoiling my grand children in the future – it shouldn’t be an issue. Thank goodness Bonnie’s Country Classic Barbecue Sauce is on the “approved” list.
