Ok so its been a while since i decided i wanted to go vegan but today im going for it. For 30 days i'm going to be living the vegan lifestyle, vegan cosmetics, vegan food, vegan clothing, vegan everything.
Here goes.
Today i woke up at 10.00AM and went downstairs for a fully vegan breakfast.
Brown Bread toast with organic soya spread. I was amazed to find it tasted exactly, if not better, than butter. Accompanied this with a large mug of organic caffeine free coffee with aplro sweetened soya milk.
Began to get ready to go for my maths GCSE (groan). Brushed my teeth with vegan friendly vanilla tooth gel from Lush. Tastes so much better than normal toothpaste! And animal free =]
Had a shower using Happy Hippy, pink grapefruit shower gel, also from lush. Washed hair with Synthia Sylvia Stout once again from lush...pretty much everything i use is from lush now haha...now i know what you're thinking...you washed you hair with beer..but its really good!!
Cleans the ol' face with Aqua Marina face wash (lush), toned it with breath of fresh air (lush) and then finished off with skin sin moisturising lotion (lush)
Time for makeup and hair haha! All my makeup is and always has been from the body shop, admittedly tis expensive and i also dont know if its entirely vegan, i did ask the woman who works at the body shop and she said it most probably was...so i'll have to go with her advice for now.
Put on some Ultra Smooth foundation shade 03, praying it was vegan haha!
Applied some pressed face powder shade 03.
Applied some define and lenghten black mascara.
Applied some black liquid eyeliner.
Finally, put some vanilla perfume oil on my wrists and neck. Thats that part finished.
Got dressed, cotton shirt of course, black jeans and canvas/rubber sneakers. That's the morning regime sorted.
Drank water all during the exam. After exam had a snack of salted cashew nuts from Tesco. Havnt had cashews or any sort of nut in ages, so i really do need to start eating nuts again.
Had a soya cheese sandwich for lunch. Brown Bread, soya spread, soya cheese. Brilliant! Had a glass of orange juice with the sarnie.
Finally dinner time. Mum made me a cheese and tomato pizza...i felt so bad reminding her i dont eat dairy products...she got so upset and i felt terrible, got myself a bowl of couscous and a glass of soya milk to drown my sorrows in (......)
Now sitting drinking a pint of ice cold water....veganism seems pretty easy =] might go on another search for tofy today, and for vegan chocolate.

Woo! Awesome first day.
I love 'Lush' products though I can't afford them so much!
Keep up the good work and work on slipping in a few more fruits and veggies to kick in some vitamins and minerals like Vit. C and iron... things you'll really need.
I just started Vegan-ism today too, and I am loving it. I'm too pumped to even think about missing the old meat and dairy stuff:) I'm definitely going to check out the Lush products...I had no idea they had toothpaste!!
Oh...have you read the book Skinny Bi**h? It's really good and has some great ideas for you. Some chapters are horrible, they almost made me cry, but overall the book is amazing and will make you appreciate the choice you made. Also try GoVeg.com:) Keep in touch and let me know how it all goes!
