eat vegetarian for a week

Husband and I decided to try going vegetarian for a week. I don’t think we are going to try doing it as a permanent thing, but we definitely broadened our horizons and want to rotate vegetarian meals into our routine. I think we might do it for one week a month, just to add some variety to our meal planning and reduce our impact. Unfortunately I have had two doctors inform me that there’s some evidence vegetarian women have a harder time with pregnancy – I’m already a bit challenged there, so I do not want to risk more complications than what I already have potential for. But I think doing it every so often will be a really good practice for us since we’re both animal lovers and trying to be healthier.

Good: spinach lasagna, quinoa, black beans
Bad: ... just have some Beano on hand while your body adjusts 1 month ago

I am completely amazed at how much better I feel. I think that part of it is because I had to really think more creatively about getting all if the nutrients I need, which lead me to eat lots of fruits, veggies, and whole grains. I am very passionate about this becoming my lifestyle. 9 months ago
