Numerous people have asked, what started this? Was it something that I read? Was it something that I saw or was I just trying to do something new or trendy? But the truth is what started out as a desire to be healthier ended up being so much more. This journey began when I needed to lose weight, deal with the excess swelling that I had all the time and get my A1C and cholesterol under control. I tried many different things from diet pills to fad diets and things just were not working. So, after joining the VA MOVE program I lost my assigned dietician, whom I had known for over two years. That really shifted my focus to want to be healthy and stick to it to become a better version of myself.
My new dietician talked to us about exercise and making healthier choices but she also talked about her plant-based lifestyle sometimes; I must admit I was curious; and I thought, why not nothing else has worked. I started out by making small changes and it eventually led to me being completely plant-based. I have more energy; my numbers are under control and steadily declining. My goal of course is for everyone to be healthier and live long happy lives; but my hope is that you will take these recipes, enjoy them, share them with others and make them your own in the process! Now, who’s hungry?!
