Goin' Veg!

So I have been reading the China Study and am amazed by the research it discusses. Long story short research has shown that some cancers feed off of animal proteins and fat. Normally this is something I would toss to the side as I ordered my cheeseburger with extra cheese; however, I have a friend who decided to go veggie after hearing a similar study and being diagnosed with Stage four cervical cancer. After an incredible surgery and many months of no animal proteins she amazed doctors by showing no signs of the cancer cells. SO! I have decided to try it out. I am on day 3. Really missing the dairy, but okay without the meat. Went to Trader Joe's today so I could stock up on some plant based protein to continue to fuel my active body. Got plenty of nuts & Cliff bars to keep in the car to munch on after StrollerFit class. I in no way endorse this study or am saying it's the way to go, but I am accepting the challenge and trying it for one month.

Three days down, 27 to go! : )
