So yes, found out today that my health has been deteriorating a rather big bit due to my veganism. I am silly, call me silly if you must because I think I am, but bascially I am not eating properly. So, I am going to start taking many supplements and going to eat lots of vegan slice (a fantastic iron-heavy thing made from oats and dates) and dolmades (ie stuffed vine leaves).
There is a tea house down from me, on Otago Lane, called Tchai Ovna, which only serves vegetarian food and the majority of them are vegan, so I am going to live in there from now on. It is open from 11 to 11 (as in am to pm) and so I can eat eat eat and listen to jazz all day. Hooray.
I used to have pretty bad IBS and it still comes back if my diet or my lifestyle changes dramatically. I guess becoming vegan counts as that, so I am not feeling great. But at least I have a stack of drugs in the drawer. And I am going to lower my intake of alcohol. Well, I did have a dram last night. But it was Glen Fiddich (only £2.50!!!) which doesn't count since it is so amazing!!!
Another thing I am wanting to do is, because I am going to mad with this vegan thing, is raise money for charity through it. So, if you are reading this and want to sponsor me (the money will go to planting trees in Brazil or something similar) then give me a buzz via email ( ailsacorinne@gmail.com ) and we can sort something out!!!
Thanks! Ailsa aka Smidgeon aka Yonder Bovine Hero
