So, I've been 'researching'. After much deliberation I have decided that I am no longer going to follow my vegan diet. It has been 6 and a half years but after talking to a nutritionalist friend of a friend, she has observed a few things about me and my poor state of health, which are purely down to my diet and the inadequate absortion of vitamins and minerals. My mum worked out that I have been sick with a cold or flu, on average, once a month for the past two years!!! Damn that is a lot of snot. I have also had to get antibiotics a few times to shift rather nasty strains of flu!!
Anyway, weirdness!! I went to Tescos today to get some lunch and I felt like an alien. I could go into a shop and buy and eat anything I wanted. ANYTHING!!! I can normally only eat plain rolls, houmous, vegetable samosas and bourbon biscuits. I spent 30 mins walking up and down the isles and came away with dairy free chocolate muffins - not vegan, they had eggs in them. I'm trying ok!! I'm having Quorn for dinner too. I know this all sounds incredibly boring to everyone but I haven't even normal food since I was 19 years old and I'm 27 this year!! The whole world of food is my oyster. But I am still scared of milk and cheese?!
I also got tattooed yesterday. Just a bit more coloured in, no point in me sorting a picture out as it just more shading and black work although on the 19th I'm starting my chestpiece!!! So I'll post that then maybe.
I'm off to make a vegetarian curry me thinks. Take it easy xxx

Its a shame your diet made you ill but good on you for sticking to it for so long!
Vegetable curry sounds good. I am trying to cut out meat as much a possible and eat as much fruit and veg as i can. I am hoping it will help me lose some weight but also make me feel a bit better. I nearly always feel really crappy.
i hate it when home girl gives me something other then broth and science diet so i know how you feel
