become a vegan

After I went to the VIVA veggie show at Wembley last year it really helped me. I tried loads of delicious vegan food and learned why it was so important to make the change for good. I am a vegan now and it’s great. i lost a bit of weight with no effort, but I’m eating loads. I eat Green and Blacks Maya Gold chocolate and it is so much nicer than milk chocolate. I also love Swedish glace non-dairy ice cream. It is so yummy. I’ve bought some vegan cook books and baked a vegan chocolate christmas cake. I enjoy my food much more than before.

I have been a vegetarian for about 10 years. Recently I read a book called the pig who sang to the moon by Jeffrey Masson. It’s about the emotions of farm animals and it really made me think if I care about animals I should become vegan. The hardest part about it is getting other people to accept it. People make enough of a fuss about me being veggie. I know it will be worth it though to know I’m not contributing to animal suffering. Giving up chocolate will be the hardest thing for me. I have a very sweet tooth.
