Half-way 1st week


So... three days into our Vegan challenge and we are still standing strong here.
The 1st day didn't go as good as we wanted. 
It didn't cross my mind the bread I had at home could not be vegan and I had it for breakfast.
One of my colleagues had tuna for lunch.
Another one ate mayonnaise.
But all other 5 colleagues actually managed to follow the vegan diet.
Not everyone else in the office thought our challenge was a great idea. We heard comments like "Being vegan is a lifestyle, not a trend" - but in Life there will always be someone who don't agree with what we do or say.
I can only respect what other people think about my actions and opinions, and I do expect the same towards myself.
For me, this is like a try-out - you can't know if you like something if you haven't tried it (most of cases) - and I was curious to test my commitment in not eating anything that comes from an animal.
I don't know if I will think, at the end of the 2 weeks, that I want to keep going vegan, but for now I am enjoying the need of controlling every single thing I eat.
Maybe this will give the capacity of self-control that I have been trying to achieve for so long and, the fact that I am doing this along with my team, it gives me that extra support and motivation.
Always trying to look at the positive side of Life, there are already too much negativism around us.

Have a great night.
