Stick to your resolution this year

When the clock strikes midnight on January 1st, we all resolve to live the next year better and maybe even cross something off of our bucket list in 2012.

Take the Vegan Challenge like Oprah with the Help of this Audio Book

You may have noticed the craze of healthy eating these past couple of years. People are more conscious about fueling their bodies with their needs verses wants. Being a vegetarian myself, I know that it can still be a challenge to say no to honey mustard chicken wings, or fries deep fried in sheep’s fat. But that yearning slowly dies off, when you’re introduced to foods that literally change how you feel, for the better. Oprah seems to be taking the challenge as well, the Vegan Challenge. Inspired by Kathy Freston’s new book “Veganist: Lose Weight, Get Healthy, Change the World”, Oprah and 378 staff members will be going vegan for one week. Freston’s new book goes on to discuss why a “plant-based diet is not only good for the animals and the environment but also for your physical and spiritual well being.”

There is a positive message about veganism. However, if you’ve never embarked on such a challenge, adopting a vegan lifestyle for good is much harder than one would anticipate. I’m looking forward to seeing the Oprah Show and how everyone makes out. Now, time to make some vegetarian chili.
