Many of us work in cube-worlds where vendors and managers bring in snacks, lunches, and coffees for us all to enjoy. It's wonderful, really, until you think about all the calories.
But we rationalize it. It's only every ONCE in a while, and its FREE!
I had to get that out of my system, especially when I chose this 30 Day Vegan Challenge.
Yesterday a vendor came in with deli sandwiches. Only 1 of the sandwiches was vegan... and when i finally got on ( on the second round) I realized that there was some sort of unknown dressing on the inside bottom of the wrap, so decided to put it down.
Yesterday night, we also had dinner planned with some close friends of ours. We went to Willington Pizza, up by the UCONN campus. I've heard great things about their deep dish, red potatoe, white pizza.
And when my small, marinara and garlic pie rolled out, I was less than pleased, compared to looking at the large, cheesy, potatoey pie that stood above mine.
Dining out can be difficult, I'm not going to lie here. BUT, I gotta say, I felt really accomplished when i left that pizza restaurant still Vegan strong! I felt a sense of self control that I've never had before. And if felt good!
Keepin strong.
