As I walk North on Broadway and 36th street, my old pal insecurity starts to block my temporary good attitude, kind of like when you get a great seat at a movie theater and the show is about to start only to have an unnaturally tall gentlemen sit directly in front of you. Enjoy.
It’s incredibly hot out for March, and my newly bought clothes aren’t taking well to life on the street. I haven’t had enough practice wearing them yet so they start to bail out on me and show sweat in odd places and ride up in unreachable territory. This is the first interview I’ve had in a long time. I try to tell myself I don’t even care if I get the job, I’m just happy to have heard back from someone. Anyone. I take a short tumble as my shoes start to try to catapult my feel from the soles. It’s not a good sign when even your shoes don’t want you around.
I catch a quick glimpse of myself in a storefront mirror. How can my makeup already be gone? I refuse to believe the pale, washed out, frizzy haired girl staring back at me is me. I looked great before I left the job I’m trying to escape. I do not represent the well dressed, put together woman I imagined in my head. Instead, I look like a child playing dress up in t heir parent’s work outfit, all bought from H&M.
The walk light turns green, and I quickly gather myself together. It’s okay, looks don’t matter. What you’re going to bring to the company is all that matters. Do I really want to work in mid-town? It’s so busy and crowded over here. I’m getting close to my destination, so I start to scan the ever hard to find numbers on the buildings while bumping into tourists checking out knock off bags on the street. As quick as I imagine myself for a minute as one of them, dreams no bigger than coming to Nyc and riding the Staten Island Ferry and eating at an overpriced TGIF’s, the quicker I shudder and remember I unfortunately have dreams and aspirations that are harder than ever to attain.
I find the building and enter. I start to run over all the possible interview questions that could be asked and all the answers I think I should say in my head. I push the button to the elevator and wait in agony. Half hoping the fire drill goes off so I can stall this excruciating process even longer. The elevator door opens. Damn. I enter the elevator and my brain decides to start asking me philosophical questions. Why do we even have interviews? We all know they’re a joke. Does anyone ever really mean what they say in an interview? Aren’t we all expected to say the same shit? Is it really just a process to see who has the submissiveness and conformity in them to be able to put themselves through this over and over again. Stop it, stop it. They’ll smell a rebel as soon as you enter the room. I start to go over my resume in my head again.
The elevator door opens to a hallway and at the end is the door to the company. I walk down as quietly as possible even though it seems with every creak my steps make the floorboards are trying to call out to me, “Go back, you do not belong here.”
I ring the buzzer and they let me in.
“Hi, I’m here to meet with Mr._” I say to sea of heads in cubicles. Though, more like a small bay than a sea, since there are only 10 or so people.
A tall, average looking gentleman pops up, “Hi, great. you must be_.” He says. We shake hands and I follow him into a conference room. I stand as I wait for him to ask me to sit. And so it begins.
“So, _ what do you think I should be asking you?”
I smile and draw a blank. Looks like I should have listened to those floorboards after all.

Hey there, still here! Still eating like a vegan. However…I did buy that leather jacket. I know, I know, but I’ve never owned my own real leather jacket before and I just couldn’t resist. It was cheap. And dirty. So so dirty.
Anyway, one of the things I’ve tried really hard to do while exploring this vegan life, is cutting out coffee. It’s super hard, and to be honest I’m not really sure why coffee is looked down upon so much. Nonetheless, my body doesn’t usually have very nice reactions when I drink coffee anyway. In desperate need of a morning warm, happy time replacement, I’ve discovered two lovely little products that are winners in replacing coffee. They’re teas too! Yerbe Matte Chocolatte. YUM-E. I just steep it for a good 8 minutes or so and add a little soy milk creamer. Excellent. I do not need my coffee with my breakfast anymore! Kuchika tea is surprisingly delicious. Since I read that it’s made from twigs, I was expecting this to be a hard one to swallow (no pun intended). I was not super excited about this tea, but my Lord, I am now.

Alicia Silverstone says to chew your food (each bite) thirty times. To me, this is a great hurdle because I wolf down my food. Attractive, right? I’ve been trying her method, this thing she calls consciously eating, which I have failed to do most of my life. I am doing it, but believe me, it isn’t easy and I don’t always make it to 30.
I am still enjoying my vegan foods though. I am eve eating a scrumptious breakfast of Worthington Meatless Sausage (not bad), Van’s Gluten free waffles (should check if they are vegan so I am not going to claim that they are) with Earth Balance Butter (very good!) and maple syrup. It feels like a very decadent Sunday brunch, and yet, it is much better and healthier! Maybe next weekend I will try to tackle a tofu scramble. I have to admit though, I am afraid to death of cooking tofu on my own instead of store bought pre-made goodies.
I tried for the first time making one of the recipes out of Alicia’s book last night. The Coffee Fudge Brownies. Now, I messed up. In theory, if I would have followed the directions exactly (which I didn’t) they would have come out excellent. However, I: 1)Did not have enough cocoa powder and had to improvise and use a sugar free swiss miss hot chocolate packet. 2) used brown sugar instead of maple (could not find maple) 3) Didn’t sift the flours together but stirred them (may or may not have actually effected recipe 4) Decided because of lack of cocoa, I threw in some vegan and grain chocolate chips, too many, into the batter to bake with. Therefore, it never really solidified very well and was a big, fudgey mess. But still tasty! Might try again tonight.
One last thing, would it be completely horrible of me if I bought a leather coat? I forever have wanted one, and finally found some on sale. I don’t want the faux, I hate those, I want the real thing. But, would this go against everything so far? Dilemma!
Ok now really one last thing, the other night, I went to Blockheads in the city. I was amazed that they had some vegan options. I created my own vegan nachos and they were DELICIOUS. I love nachos. These nachos were top notch. They were covered in soy cheese, tofu sour cream, jalapenos and salsa cruda. Props to you Blockheads!

I cannot reiterate enough how awesome Supermarket Vegan is. Am I reiterating enough? Well, it’s freakin’ awesome. I made the most delicious Indian inspired meal tonight, even my boyfriend loved it. Granted, he kept commenting on the chicken (I made him chicken, not for me though). I’ve also noticed, quite surprisingly, how my love of meat has gone. I took a bite of his chicken to test if it was done and I literally went ‘oo.’ Kind of as in “ew” but not as strongly. Really the hardest part to give up is the dairy. Which is so strange since I am technically lactose intolerant. Let me quickly explain. Milk will make explode, cheese except ricotta cheese (the most hardest on my body of all) is fine, ice cream makes me bloated, etc etc. The dairy items I keep “accidentally” including my diet is Fage Greek Yogurt and some cheeses here and there but very rare.
This whole vegan thing I find goes along well with my new empowerment to improve myself. Being 25 and two years out of college I find I miss learning horribly. I want to keep bettering myself. Sometimes I put too much on my plate but now I am just trying to grab and pull here and there. Healthy eating, check. Exercise more, check. Become more worldly and knowledgeable of what’s going on in the world, half of a check. My newest venture is improving my grammar and punctuation skills. This is easy for me, oddly enough, for I love English and anything to do with language and literature. So, right now I am reading Eats, Shoots and Leaves Lynne Truss.
I want to make a note in here that I would tomorrow like to talk about society’s obsession(now I am paranoid if I am putting the apostrophe in the right place) with looks and an incident that happened to me at the gym today.
Anyway, meal breakdown time!
Pre Breakfast (because I wake up at 5 AM and I am starving but it’s too early for a real breakfast):
gluten free marshmallow bar (1oo cals)
Breakfast:
Gluten free bagel (kind of ick)
Tofutti cream cheese
strawberries
chai tea ole with honey and soy milk
Lunch:
Small side salad with olive oil, chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts
Meatless chicken patty with almond cheese and whole wheat bun; hot sauce and vegan mayo
*side note: Almond cheese rocks. It’s almost as good as regular cheese and MUCH better than vegan cheese. Will stick to this for now
Snack:
Carrots with hummus
coffee with soymilk creamer
Dinner:
Chickpea spread in pita with cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce. Side of vegetable korma packet, Indian rice packet, and some naan bread. DELICIOUS.
Even though I am eating really healthy I am still concerned about the calorie content. Haven’t really been paying attention and am slightly worried I am eating too much. Might start keeping an eye on that.

I have not written in this thing for almost a week, so, my progress is not being tracked as well as I would have liked. However, this vegan thing is becoming easier and easier.
For one, I have received two books which are extremely helpful. Supermarket Vegan and Alicia Silverstone’s The Kind Diet.
I have not eaten meat since Sunday (a whole three days which is good for a daily meat-eater) and very, very little dairy. Cheese is the only part I’ve slipped up on here and there. I even resisted a very strong and weird craving for a ham sandwich with mayo. I never eat ham.
I’m actually getting excited when I go shopping for healthy veggies and vegan items. It’s kind of like a game, like how many vegan items can I find for what I need to replace? I went to Whole Foods tonight and picked up a bunch of goodies. I bought some Tofutti cream cheese, gluten-free bagels (which actually I am not sure if it is vegan…), Almond cheddar, vegan brownies (which are low cal and decadent!), chickpeas, Naan bread for my boo, Indian side dishes and some meatless chicken patty stuff. One of them is a spicy chicken tender imposter but tastes even BETTER than the real thing and is better for you. Cannot beat that!
Here is what I ate today:
Breakfast:
Whole wheat bagel with Tofutti cream cheese, side of strawberries, green tea
Lunch:
Spinach salad with chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, basil and my own garlic/olive oil dressing. (Recipe from Supermarket Vegan)
Snack:
Baby carrots with hummus
Dinner (this is a weird one because I went for a snacky coffee with my friend):
1 cappuccino with soy milk
We split some whole wheat bread with olive oil, mozzarella (I only had one piece), tomatoes, and olives
Riz Au Lait, it’s a vegan dessert that was basically like brown rice in a tapioca sauce with berries.
THEN I came home and was still hungry-ish and wanted to try my goodies from Whole Foods (shouldn’t have really)
I had 4 of those spicy tenders, a small side of refried beans and one of those brownie bites.
However, I did exercise with kettle bells today and walked to Whole foods about 4 avenues instead of taking the bus. Not too bad right?

Why the title? I have been taking an employee workout class and this is one of the things we are asked to do. I am slightly annoyed because my co-worker, who I work every morning with at 7 AM, kept bothering me to do one. I can’t! And now I feel bad about it. But anyway…back to the veganism.
I have another positive thing to say about veganism. Ever since trying this out, it definitely makes me think twice about what I put in my mouth. Which is a hard hard thing to do for me! But now, I have to stop and think about if what I am eating is 1)going to do my body any good and 2)does this come from an animal? So instead of thinking is this going to satisfy me, which really in my case is always a yes, I am taking the extra time to make a wise decision. Yay!
Today’s Menu:
Breakfast:
Ezekiel Cereal
Raisins
Strawberries
Vanilla Soy Milk
Coffee with soy milk cream and agave
Snack:
1 Vitamuffin top (not so vegan but I have so many of these that I need to get rid of and they’re filling)
Lunch:
Amy’s kid’s meal (I know I know) This contained wheat free macaroni and soy cheese, broccoli, and apple pockets.
Snack:
Seaweed roll up. Contains: cucumbers, guacamole (avocado went bad) and lettuce.
Asian Snack food, Calbee BBQ Corn (it’s a cheeto like snack that is spicy and made from cornmeal) Again, a lot healthier than an American version snack food. They are baked and a lot less calories! Jeez!
Dinner: Okay, don’t get mad, but, I am having a lean burger. I’m a little worried about my iron intake and I just don’t feel like cooking beans tonight. But like I said, I am right now STEERING towards veganism and eating a lot less meat.
I also wanted to mention these AWESOME nachos I made last night as an appetizer to my meatless chicken sandwich. I used guiltless nacho chips with vegan cheddar. Let me tell you. SO YUM. I was hesitant of the vegan cheddar again, because it has such a weird consistency and smells weird. But melted on chips? Um, better than some nachos I’ve had in Mexican restaurants. I think I have found a cure to my unhealthy Mexican food addiction.
I think I am also starting to like some vegan foods better than mainstream ones…

Loving this instant matcha au lait drink. Love IT.
So, I already see an improvement in my body from my slight steer towards vegan. For a while, my skin was itchy and breaking out in weird rashes. My legs were super itchy, it sucked. I have been itch free since I started. Coincidence? I’m leaning towards no. Also, I feel really good. I don’t feel so tired all the time. Usually around this time when I get home from working after waking up at 5 AM, I pass out. I cannot move from the couch and am a lump the rest of the night. Right now when I should be feeling like that lump, I feel SO energetic. I haven’t even had any coffee today and I feel great.
I am going to do a quick wrap up of what I ate yesterday:
Ezkiel original cereal
almond milk
coffee
strawberries
Snack:
50 calorie shake from biggest loser (I need shakes to take my vitamins with or I get sick.)
Lunch:
Sprouted wheat rolls
meatless chicken (this was freaking awesome)
vegan cheddar (not so good)
vegan mayo (also awesome)
guitless nacho chips and some leftover asian snacks
Boylan’s ginger ale
*My sandwich tasted like something from McDonalds. It. Was. Amazing. I’m not going to lie, the cheese is gross raw and smells strongly. But melted, it’s pretty darn good.
Snack:
Gluten, vegan dark chocolate rice bar. (Pretty decent, fixed my chocolate craving).
Dinner:
Chicken stir fry (my only meat of the day and very small amount) It basically contained wild rice and broccoli as well.
Shrimp Gyoza (ok also not so vegan)
Dessert:
I ripped into my vegan rice krispy marshmallow bars (eh)
Today’s Menu:
Breakfast: Same breakfast minus the coffee
Snack: Asian cracker snack pack
Lunch: Amy’s baked ziti kid’s meal (vegan and gluten free)
Snack: Seaweed roll up, took a sheet of dried seaweed and fill it with lettuce, avocado, and cucumber. Dipped in chili garlic sauce. YUM and fulfilling. Along with a cup of matcha tea.
Dinner: Going to be the same as lunch yesterday.
I think I’m doing pretty good. Especially around the end of my shift when my co-worker literally littered me with small chocolate squares and I didn’t eat them! For once. I also did a tough cardio program on the elliptical that I downloaded from Fitsugar. It worked me hard!

So, I’m a little late in updating, but yesterday was a sort-of success in going vegan. I find eating gluten-free is actually more difficult.
Breakfast:
Vans Gluten free blueberry waffles
Fage Greek yogurt 0%
Bonne Maman Raspberry Preserve
Arrow Mills Peanut Butter
Maple Syrup
Fresh Direct Coffee with Soymilk creamer
Snack:
Baked Nacho Multigrain Tortilla chips
Tomatillo Salsa
Lunch:
Now, lunch wound up being more vegan than I had planned and this was purely accidental and in a good way! My boyfriend and I met up with his brother, his girlfriend and their friend Nate at an Indian Restaurant, Brick Clay. We all did the buffet, only to find there was almost nothing left. So, I had to settle for what was there which was meatless options, but very good and filling!
Some kind of Paneer
Basmati rice
Naan Bread
Chickpeas
And ONE drumstick of Tandoori chicken which was amazing. I had to try it. Had to.
Snack (This is kind of a biggie) :
My boyfriend and I stopped off at a Japanese tea house Cha-An. I loved it there. You have to go up this long wooden staircase, which makes it feel very secluded and VIP. Then, you enter upon a small but beautiful traditionally decorated Japanese Tea House. The patrons were interesting as well. There were a few tables with Japanese girls dressed in kimonos.It was a very relaxed and serene atmosphere. I did not feel like I was in NY. It’s a really nice place to stop and have a small snack and a pot or cup of tea. I FINALLY got to try Matcha tea which I have been dying to do. It’s a pure form of green tea, I believe is a close enough definition of it, and it comes from Kyoto.
I also got a free side of mochi and red bean paste with it. Pretty tasty
Now, here is something I discovered, Asian snacks, are a lot healthier than American ones. I don’t like falling into that category of that girl on the street that yells how America is poisoning its people, I don’t really believe that. But, since I couldn’t read the language on a lot of the snack packs (we stopped at an Asian Food Mart on the way home) I had to read the ingredients and calorie content. They do not use any high fructose of any kind! The first four ingredients of every snack I picked up, packaged and all, was normal ingredients. Like flour, sugar or margarine. I got some cookies, seaweed crackers, gummi things, INSTANT MATCHA AU LAIT WHICH IS AMAZINGGGG MY GOD, and some shrimp and spicy flavored chip like snacks. And all of them were much lower in calories than our snacks. As well as smart packaging. The cookies came in single serving packs and I felt satisfying having only two or three, instead of 12 like when I eat Chips Ahoy (but maybe that’s just my own personal dilemma). Awesome. But I think I did eat too many snacks in general.
Dinner:
Chicken Gyro, fries and salad. Ok, I was not happy with this choice but I did not finish the whole thing. And I didn’t feel as good after as other things I had eaten yesterday.
Today I am doing good so far. But of course, it’s only breakfast and that’s usually easy for me.
Breakfast:
One of the Ezkiel Cereals
3 sliced strawberries
Almond milk
Soy creamer coffee with agave
I’m off from work today and it’s nice. My boyfriend and I plan on exploring the Lower East Side and maybe a little shopping if I can convince him. I am a little hesitant to shop because even though I did much better this week in terms of eating (except Friday when we had Mexican food) I have gained two more lb. Not sure what’s going on with my body. It is that time of the month and to be fair, I think I only exercised once this week. I should try to fit in exercise at LEAST three times this week. We are supposed to stop at NYSC on the way back to see if I can get a good deal. I want to take exercises classes and this is right across the street. Makes sense.
Well, I need to end this to go maintain my fake store on facebook. Retail Therapy, it’s so addicting, and relaxing too!

Now, I’ve never been one to dabble in the idea of never eating meat again. I’m still not even completely convinced that I won’t. But for some reason, it’s appealing to me these days.
Why now, all of a sudden? Well, for one, I’ve had weight problems for years. Since I was in third grade. I have had an unhealthy relationship with food. I also have skin problems, a type of eczema or so I’ve been told by my dermatologist. I feel tired all the time and I don’t feel particularly good after a lot of the foods I eat. I want that to change. I am also lactose intolerant. But don’t get me wrong, I love cheese and still eat it.
So, I am trying Alicia’s idea of “flirting” with veganism. Especially, since I’ve never even gone vegetarian. Which is what you might think would be the first step. I might also do the whole gluten-free thing, but let’s take one step at a time.
Also, I watched an old episode of Oprah where Alicia was on for a bit promoting her book “The Kind Diet.” Which I like. I like that it’s about treating yourself and your body right. And why not?
I’m going to document my eating habits as long as I can (hopefully will get pictures up soon as well) and I’ll be following the Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone (as soon as it is delivered from Amazon). I basically will not be engulfing my whole diet into it right away because I don’t want to risk of a setback and bingeing on ribs or something. I thought (if anyone even winds up reading this) it’d be nice for other people to be able to see how easy or hard it is and if it’s the latter, then how to get over whatever the obstacle may be.
Now, for a little bio. I am 25 years old, a receptionist at a gym (go figure) and I live in Manhattan with my boyfriend. So, yes, I have healthier alternatives available to me than other’s might, but I think non-populous places are getting in on the health food trend. No?
I think for the first day of trying it out, I did pretty okay.
Breakfast:
100 calorie deli flat bread, Arrow Mills Creamy Peanut butter and Bonne Maman Raspberry preserve. Half of a cup of fresh direct coffee with almond milk and agave nectar.
Snack:
I forget what these are called exactly but I bought them at Dean and Deluca. Some kind of Asian wrap in a clear wrap paper (rice paper maybe) filled with carrots, cucumbers, lettuce and avocados. It came with a nice little chili dipping sauce on the side.
*I’d like to point out I was very proud of myself at this point because normally for a snack I’d grab chips or some protein bar that I wouldn’t really need.
Lunch:
Thai food from Spice. Small green salad with peanut dressing. Fried tilapia with spicy sauce and steamed greens. Small cup of white rice.
*Also, even though it was fried to my surprise, this is better than something else I would have normally picked AND I didn’t finish the whole thing.
Snack:
Rice Dream Mint Ice Cream Pie (Holy God, was this good). Alicia Silverstone mentions this in her book AND on the Oprah show, I had to buy it and try it when I saw it.
Dinner:
Appetizer:
Low fat baked whole wheat nacho flavored chips, green salsa.
Main Meal:
red leaf lettuce salad, small tomatoes, all natural parmesan cheese dressing. Morning Star meatless riblets.
*I was kind of iffy on the riblets, but they were really tasty and had the same consistency of meat.
Probably will end the night with a decaf coffee with soymilk creamer.
Well, that is all for now. I am watching this movie Holy Smoke and it was good at first and then it got really weird. Kate Winslet is really good in it though.

So, I’ve decided to leave Weight Watchers and try losing weight on my own. I have tried many plans, meal programs and ways of losing weight. They have all gotten me only so far and some have taught me very valuable lessons, but I still am struggling. I have about 20 lb I would like to lose and I hope I can achieve it.
Today I think I did okay. This past week I spent 6 days in Florida and any type of structure I had before then was completely demolished. Between trips to a chocolate factory and Denny’s, I put on a few pounds, making me lose a lot of the hard work I had put into my body earlier this year.
I’m lucky enough that I work at a gym, but like the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. I think that’s how it goes anyway. ANYWAY, one of the trainers at the gym is kind enough to hold a class every Wednesday that is free to employees. Today was actually tough. We did leg exercises with hurdles, lower ab pull ups from a bar, squats with bicep curls, throwing a medicine ball like ball to partner and twisting to the side and then finally taking two ropes and whipping them up and down making ripples until our arms dropped off. Then I walked two miles with Miguel and Jackie.
This, is what I ate today:
Breakfast: 1/2 Quick Cooking Quaker Oats
1 cup Almond milk that I mixed cinnamon and vanilla extract into
1 Tbsp All natural organic etc peanut butter
Over a tsp of honey, not sure on the measurement
1 small banana
Instant coffee that I wound up throwing out because it tasted awful so it doesn’t really count.
Midmorning Snack: 1 Kashi Dark Chocolate Mocha bar
1/2 of 5 hour energy drink
Lunch: I ordered from Muscle Maker Grill
6 Texas Chicken Nuggets
2 Tbsp fat free sour cream
1 small baked potato
Afternoon snack (this is where it gets hairy): Greens Dark Chocolate Mint..I had like 6 squares I think.
about a cup of baby carrots with about 2 tbsp garlic hummus and guacamole
Then I proceeded to shove lots of part skim shredded mozzarella cheese into my mouth, nice going.
Dinner: I got lazy and boiled 3 eggs, put them on Weight Watchers bread (2 slices), 1 tbsp natural butter, more mozzarella cheese, maybe a half of a cup and some hot sauce.
Dessert: Laughing Cow Mint Chocolate Ice Cream Flying Saucer
So, really it looks like where I go bonkers is the afternoon. I need to find a finalizing filling snack. I definitely didn’t eat enough veggies today or fruit for that matter. But at least I didn’t shove like a whole pig into my mouth. And I so would.
I am really tired so this is all I am going to update with. This weekend I am going home to visit my parents for my birthday weekend. I am going to try REALLY hard not to indulge so much. Even though I am looking forward to Mexican/Italian food for dinner and a cake. A piece of cake that is. Oh, boy.
