I'll let Betty review the items we ate today. I wanted to focus a little more on some of the things I'm reading about being vegan. As a newcomer to this lifestyle, I really didn't know much about the health benefits of eating only plant based foods. Of course it's a nice not to harm animals for our food, but I just didn't realize that being vegan has a host of many other benefits. I found a helpful blog which touched on some of these items. Check it out. I think you'll be really surprised to learn how being vegan can lower your cholesterol, lessens your fat intake and help fend off certain types of cancers and other diseases.

I'm starting to realize that there may be a little more to eating a plant based diet.
