4 month update!

I try and quit a lot of things. I will find something intresting and want to take part of but I will eventually see either one I have no passion and two I have gotten bored. Then I quit within a month or sometimes less. I am not a quitter I am a seeker. I seek to find passion in things I love or something that will better my life. If it doesn't work I let it go.

So for me to go four months quiting something I have ate my whole life is BIG for me. I have been vegan four months now and it feels incredible, I feel incredible. Not only because I have lost weight while eating what ever I want and as many carbs as I want, have way more energy that I have ever had, but I feel like I am making a difference. I know in my concious I am saving animals, my health. and the planet.

What I have noticed in 4 months being vegan.

1 being I don't know why I didnt do this sooner

2 say what ever the hell you want to say

3 number one justification is "we have been doing it forever"/ same goes for slavory but we dont do that anymore to humans do we ... just animals and that is ok?

4 most everyone say oh i could be vegetarian but not vegan... strange I know

5 vegans are extreme yes

6 56 billion animals are killed every year for humans to eat is also extreme

7 Livestock is the number one leading cause of greenhouse gas emissions is also extreme

8 being vegan is not hard

9 being vegan is rewarding

10 being vegan is not weird

11 drinking cows milk is weird

12 eating a chickens period is even more weird

13 veganism lowers the risk of colon cancer, heart attack, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, prostate cancer, and stroke is why I wonder why not everyone is vegan yet

14 I love being vegan

I was asked once "do you think being vegan is sustainable?" this took me by suprise because I believe being vegan is the only way to be sustainable.

Sustainable meaning able to be maintained

"Industrial livestock production in developing countries often causes severe environmental damages, especially when meat and dairy factories are crowded together around cities or close to water resources, the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) has warned."

Take a look at this graph the first box you see if the amount of land a vegan needs to provide food for themselves, second box is how much land a vegetarian needs to provide food for themselves, the third box shows you how many lbs of vegetables you can gain compared to the fourth box having the same amount of vegetables grown in the same amount of land to grow food to feed the livestock which only produces 375 lbs of meat. There is a bigger picture here! Can you see it? That if everyone lived on a Vegan lifestyle we would produce way more food in less space for more people rather than feeding that food to animals in way bigger space to produce way less meat (food).

*in my eyes not food* but you get the point

So in these last four months I have realized being Vegan is the only way to be substainable. The only way to better the planet, the only way to respect mother nature, the only way to save innocent lives, and for me the only way to be living to the fullest.
