So all of my life, I thought I hated these green little fellas? Hmm they actually don’t taste so bad when they’re the only things you eat. Especially when you’re so hungry after a long day, and vegetables are your only option, they begin to taste wonderful. I think it’s a psychological thing. At first, the plan was that I eat more vegetables than meat. But for the past few days of only eating vegetables, I suddenly got inspired to become a full vegetarian. I know people have many different reasons for becoming vegetarians. Some feel sorry for the animals, so they only eat vegetables. I actually really love animals. But reality check, God even said that we can eat animals. In Acts 10, Peter was up on a rooftop and fell asleep and had a vision. 

Acts 10:11-15 “He saw heaven open, and something came down like a huge sheet held up by its four corners. In it were all kinds of animals, snakes, and birds. A voice said to him, ‘Peter, get up! Kill these and eat them.’ But Peter said, ‘Lord, I can’t do that! I’ve never eaten anything that is unclean and not fit to eat.’ The voice spoke to him again. ‘When God says that something can be used for food, don’t say it isn’t fit to eat.’”

In the book of Leviticus, it was part of the old covenant when God said we can’t eat certain animals. But after the new covenant with Jesus Christ, many things changed, including the foods God allows us to eat.

Now I’m just randomly rambling and putting my thoughts down here. So eating meat isn’t so bad after all, considering the fact that God encourages us to do so. That was God’s intention from the start, when He created the animals. But I’ve decided to become a vegetarian, for the health purposes. :)

Veggies are great. But the truth is, I don’t believe I’ve been consuming much vegetables in my life. So, I’ll start now. And it’s been the other way around with meat. I’ve had too much of it in my life. So I’m cutting it off now. 

I also want to lose weight. I hear from tons of people, “That doesn’t make a difference. You don’t lose weight that way.” I know, I know, it all has to do with the calories. But if some people haven’t noticed, vegetables and fruits have very little calories compared to solid meat. And it’s only been one week, and I’ve proved people wrong by losing three pounds lol. I’m also exercising regularly, so that should be good enough. 

I admit, if I smell meat from time to time, I do get tempted. But I’m not giving in. It’s all a part of adjustment. I’m getting there.~
