Day 10 of vegan. Things could be better...

I need help!

Since going vegan I haven't lost any weight like I had expected to. In fact I have put a little on...

I know why. I wanted to try making vegan goodies like shortbread and scones to see what the vegan version is like...and yes they are yummy. Not really a good thing.

In my first week I had craving for crisps. I never eat crisps! But I did, I had some Kettle chips. Too many kettle chips if I am honest.

I do feel different...in a bad way. Currently I am buzzing off coffee and I have just come back from the gym so still buzzing from that too (which is why this post makes no sence).

I still want to lose weight, I think I still have around 10lb to go. But nothing really seems to be moving. But then again I read somewhere that you need to keep changing your eating habits as you go. Currently I am eating enough to maintain around 9st 7lb - 9st 10lb. My goal is 8st 10lb - 9st 2lb. I know that to do this I need to cut out the junk and eat for veg, however, when I do this a little bit of junk always leaves me wanting more. Darn additives....The only thing that this doesn't happen with is 70% dark chocolate. Which, by the way is amazing!

So yeah more veg. Less junk.

Started my first 3rd year nursing placement yesterday! Had my first vegan mishap. I asked for a coffee thinking I could have it black then I was given a one with milk...I can't say no to that! So I drank it, mainly to be polite but they know now about my vegan challenge.

Sorry that this has probably made no sence, but any advice or comments would be great! :)

  1. Maybe the non weight loss is because your body is still adjusting to being vegan??? And you don't need to lose anything! You're gorgeous already xxxx
