Pescetarian

Wow no updates in a while. i've been kinda lazy. The big news recently is that I decided to be a pescetarian for the month of november. It's inspired by a friend of mine who did the same a while back. I'm not a picky eater and I love all kinds of food (except onions, 'cause those are just disgusting!) so this isn't about me giving up meat or not enjoying it. I really do love meat and even if I'm an animal lover, I don't believe in not eating the flesh of animals, simply because that is how it works. We prey and we eat each other. Ok, things changed and we don't actually hunt our food, but that's still the way it works within the animal realm, so I don't feel guilty eating meat myself.

Now, why am I doing this then? Because vegetarianism is something that's always intrigued me. And because it's healthy and it's good to challenge one self once in a while. So here it is, I'm spending the entire month of September with no meat. However, I am not a vegetarian as I'm eating fish (and I'm not a vegan, as I'm eating dairy). I chose to add fish to the mix because this is the first time I will have a diet without meat and I didn't want to shock my system too much. It's also easier to ensure I get all my nutrients. I'm trying not to eat fish too much though. So far, i've had one seafood meal and one fish meal. So i'm doing good with legumes and vegetable so far! :)
