For a while now, I've been living vegan.
That was only natural for me to start living a vegan lifestyle. It's got good health benefits and I really needed that. Other then that, I don't have to deal with the guilt anymore of supporting mass production of animals.
I dislike mass production of any kind of food and I hate how even our veggies and fruit are sprayed with so many chemicals, the ground is worked with so many chemicals and on top of that: GMO's!! Like, for real? What the hell is humankind thinking?
They genetically manipulate everything. What's wrong with all natural?
I try to buy as much organic as possible. But I have worked on farms (vegetable farming) and I know what 'organic and biological' means in my country... The label cannot be trusted. The bruised apples that comes from the same tree as the apple that has been sprayed with chemicals, goes under the name of biological and organic, so it can be sold more expensive...
That's disturbing.
I can rant a long time about our food, the big food corporations, the pharmaceutical corporations and so on... it's a big issue for me.
If I think about it, most likely I've been ill all my life, because of all these chemicals in our food, the synthetic supplements we must use to maintain a good health etc...
How misinformed we all are and how much 'they' frighten us when we want to use all natural food (as in: go into the Woods, pluck your own and enjoy your meal), because all natural must be bad for your health. There's even messages being spread that too much veggies and fruit aren't good for your health at all. But shitloads of meat and dairy is? How about those scientifical reports that show that a lot of people actually get ill because of their consumption of animal products? Why do we need to ignore them???
I love living vegan!
I love eating alltogether off course. I would eat all the time, if only my body would allow me (oh my jaws!!).
Soon I'll get new teeth and hopefully a dental aid to stop me from grinding my teeth, perhaps then the constant inflammation of my jaws will stop once and for all and I'll be in less pain and able to eat so much more (looking forward to this, but not the surgery haha).
I've been doing some research on good vegan food. But all is focussed on people losing weight.
Thing is, I cannot afford to lose any more weight. I'm one of the few who want to gain weight, as quickly as possible. Not by eating unhealthy off course.
I've fought too hard to become as healthy as I am right now. I can walk again, even rode a bycicle again a while ago. There's so many things I can finally do again.
Still a long way to go, but I have faith my health can still improve.
So far, I'm without the opïod painkiller for an entire week now! Yay :D Good on me! I must be doing something right!
Some help with info for good meals, that don't cost much effort but do give me the nutritions I need, the energy that I need, the calories I need etc, would be awesome.
Prepping food isn't as easy for me as it is for a healthy person! Sometimes it costs me so much energy, I'd rather be hungry (hasn't got anything to do with being vegan, have been doing this for a long time, because I need to spare my energy!).
But there isn't exactly anyone out there with good advice on very quick meals high in calories and good nutritions to help me out. All info and recipes are based on people who can stand on their feet. But there's days even a walk to get me my coffee, is too hard... How would I be able to stand on my feet and prep a meal? I need easy meals right now, as a back-up for the bad days in my life (medically speaking then).
It's not like I can make some energy appear to do this.
I reached out to a lot of vegan sites, both on and off Facebook, but... no help.
I signed up for coahing, but nothing happened.
Ah well, yet another road I'll have to travel alone.
I'll get it done eventually!
Food worries aside for now.
Other things are on my mind right now.
