Maybe instructor

So I might be a instructor for the FAC or texas family fitness soon. Wish me luck =)

Not a real vegan?

So today I was called not a real vegan by a animal rights activist. The reason? I'm friends with meat eaters and I let them eat meat in front of me. To me this is a completely messed up way of thinking. I mean, i don't eat or wear any animal products but now I am judged for the people I am friends with. These friends have been there for me and supported me through converting to veganism so many years ago. I have even converted many people to veganism by showing them delicious food and being kind! People like this animal activist (for the record I am also a animal activist) are the ones that give vegans a bad name. No one wants to be around them because they cannot except people for who they are. Disgraceful.

So much work

I feel bad that I haven't updated =( it's almost the end of the semester so teachers have been giving out homework like crazy. I promise I'll give a proper update soon! I'll be able to update much more by summer =)

Turbo Kickboxing

Been awhile

So it's been a while since I've posted something on here. Let me start by saying that I got a new birth control called implanon. Unfortunately my body did not like it and it made me sick for a month and a half. It was so horrible and I am immediately getting back on depo. And I will finally be posting again! =D

Fitness

I got the myfitnesspal app and it is amazing! I highly recommend it to anybody who needs a reminder on recording what you eat ( iv never been good about it).

Turbo kickboxing

Kickboxing is the greatest workout in the world! If you haven't tried it you need to! And when I become a instructor in a month come to my class ;)

Mock chicken rice

I just made a lunch that tastes amazing and it's so incredibly easy!

It is what I call a mock chicken fried rice.

What you need is:
3 cups brown rice, cooked
2 tbsp of minced ginger
2 tbsp of minced garlic
1 baby bokchoy (I forgot how to spell it)
1 red bell pepper, chopped
Frozen corn (as much as you want)
Frozen edamame
As much teriyaki sauce as needed
Mock chicken strips
Oil for cooking

First cook garlic and ginger in oil under high heat. Once the garlic starts browning slightly add bok choy and bell pepper, stir constantly. Only bok choy starts wilting then add frozen corn and edamame. Once that has cooked then add rice and sauce. Once mixed set aside.

Cook mock chicken according to directions then add to the rice mixture. Then your done! Hope you like it as much as I do =)

Oh I forgot to add my precious dog, Buddy! He is so adorable and I will frequently add pictures of him =)

My first blog

I have read so many blogs and they are all so inspirational! So I might as well try it out too =) I have a immense passion for the vegan lifestyle and love to share it with others. Now don't get me wrong, i'm not one of those snobby vegans that shove their lifestyles in other peoples faces (we have all met at least one of those). I believe in winning others through food and example of how easy and fun the vegan diet can be.
