My Vegan Story

Hello and welcome to my blog! I’m Bree and I’ve been eating a plant-based diet since January 10, 2018. I took it a step further and started living a vegan lifestyle in September of 2018. Here’s how it all happened.

I first started thinking about going plant-based when my former roommate did it in 2017. We were living in Halifax, NS at the time, and being her roommate, I was there as she transitioned from eating meat on a regular basis, to eliminating animal products completely. She really got me thinking about why people go vegan and she told me about What the Health. I eventually watched this documentary, as well as Forks Over Knives, and quickly became convinced that eating a plant-based diet was the best thing I could do for my health.

I actually tried eliminating animal products from my diet a couple of times before I fully committed. Eliminating meat was quite easy for me, but I had a hard time giving up eggs and dairy at the beginning. Like many people who struggle with eating a plant-based diet, I was worried that I may never be satisfied by yummy foods again. Since then, I have learned so much and discovered so many amazing plant-based meals. I also discovered how to make delicious meals that are healthy and not just vegan. Many vegan foods can be extremely unhealthy, but I put a focus on whole foods in my recipes. This has not only made me feel great, but I’ve lost around 10 pounds as well.

After about 8 months of eating a plant-based diet, I started thinking about how often I buy products other than food that contribute to animal cruelty. I realized that my health should no longer be my only focus. I love makeup and I noticed how many popular brands test on animals and/or include animal products in their ingredients. The same goes for many well-known skincare brands. I am now very conscious of what health and beauty products I purchase, and it isn’t as difficult as I thought it would be.
