day #7: superhero this week!

I'm heading home to los angeles tomorrow, and although i love being on vacation with my grandad, it is much easier to stick to eating exactly how i want when i'm in my own kitchen :)

my goal for this up coming week it be a complete "superhero vegan!" Alicia describes this:

- commit to centering your diet on whole grains, veggies & clean proteins

- chew everything really well

- make friends with sea veggies and magic foods

- stay clear of processed foods (MY GOAL!!)

- listen to your body

- save the world :)

I absolutely love these goals, and I am especially going to stay focused on the no-processed-foods. I think this will make the largest change in my body. Alicia gives a Superhero meal plan in her book, and I am going to try and follow that exactly. The few differences I may make are having a little bit less for breakfast than she does, and replacing veggie soup for some of the larger meals. This was a recommendation from a fellow "kind lifer" in order to reach your perfect & healthy body.

I am excited, because last week's goal of being Vegan was achieved and I'm feeling great! This week I want to get the complete benefits and start making it a life-style. :)

p.s. today was fun because i made a fantastic vegan meal for my grandad and didn't even mention that it was vegan...i just told him i was going to make him lunch: zucchini noodles & sauteed spinach! it's fun sharing great recipes with family members. it makes it a lot easier too!
