Today's Oprah was that her and her whole staff went Vegan for one week. Although it wasn't as far as I'm trying to take my diet it was pretty interesting. I do like the direction they were going in. They are going to have their lunchroom do Meatless Mondays. They will also have at least one entree every day be Vegan.
In watching and listening to the show I learned something about myself that I hadn't realised before now. I LIKE TO CHEW! I've always had a large appetite. I want to chew most of my calories or at least two of my meals every day need to have a lot of bite to them. I eat HUGE salads for lunch and dinner every day which gives me that CHEW that I desire. I've read quite a few raw vegan blogs and herd what people say on Peer Trainer that are Vegan and they all talk about putting veggies in their smoothies. I know one of these days I will eventually try it and I might be converted, but for now I am pretty grossed out by the idea. I like veggies (with ranch that is), and like I said before I like to chew my veggies. My husband and I aren't wealthy and the more kids we have and the older they get the poorer I feel. Along with that food is a huge cost that I find hard to think about liquefying a food that I like perfectly well in it's natural form.
