Failures

We all know that failures are a part of life...especially when trying to drastically change your lifestyle.

I'm going to post about a few today and later post something more sunshine-y and interesting, so for now, bear with me.

1. The roomie is done with the "vegan thing" as he puts it.
Admittedly, this lifestyle is not an easy one to follow, especially without proper advance planning. Vegan friendly meals are more readily available in larger cities, and we even have a few restaurants here that are becoming vegan friendly, but to run out and grab a quick bite to eat at a fast food joint is not conducive to the vegan way. I wish he would have given it a few more days, but in the end, it's his decision. I'm still going to be following the lifestyle and cooking vegan meals at home, roomie or not.

Speaking of fast food,
2. I went to Wendy's today and ordered one of those new berry almond chicken salads sans chicken...
...but forgot to tell them no cheese. I ended up picking off most of the cheese that I could, but some was still ingested. I also used the nasty excuse for a dressing they give you with it. Not. Satisfied. I will probably be smelling the results from my dairy ingestion later. Pleasant, eh?

3. I still haven't been able to wriggle free of the vice grip that Diet Coke has on me.
I ordered a large Diet Coke with my salad...and I'm still drinking it. I am fully aware of how horrible the stuff is for me, but I have made a lot of big changes so far and am not 100% ready to let that one simple, horrible pleasure in life go just yet. Sue me. Shun me. At least I get my D.C. fix.

That's all for now.
