trying something new

so im trying something a little different lately....not eating meat and i have to say i dont really miss it. i have had a few bites here and there but that is maybe a day or two a week.  there is something to be said about not restricting food. if u know u can have it its no big deal but when u tell urself 'i cant eat that' its something else.  i feel like my whole view of food is different.  i dont really like the idea of eating meat and im not sure why and yes im still eating fish so i know animals are still dying for my dinner but i just feel bad for the chickens. all of a sudden and i dont wanna eat the pigs or the cows.  im not saying that i will never go back to meat or  not have a bite now and again but for now im really not interested.  i feel like this have changed my other food habits too. im having a 'a ha' moment of if u want to be healthy u have to eat healthy and really not eat too much. exercise is not my favorite thing if im being honest but my body needs it and if i want to change my body i will have to just do it. 

how can shorts and jeans be that different?

so how come i can go to a certain store and grab a pair of skinny jeans and be on the way but cant do the same with shorts? i bring in different styles, lengths, cuts and most of the time i end up settling on a pair because i refuse to leave the store empty handed and this has been going on for a few years now so i shouldnt have expected today to go any better i was in the store for over an hour and ended up with a pair of dark wash bermudas i will say though i am happy with my purchase but this is just the begining and the thing is i always want new shorts/capris because i dont like the ones from last year that i bought and i wonder why i bought them in the first place and then i remember that if i didnt buy them i wouldnt have had any shorts to wear! so i am pledging to do better this year to venure out to other stores and hope for the best all im asking is for a few great pairs of shorts/capris is that too much to ask and if all else fails u will all be seeing me in my yoga gear that i recently purchased its very cute

do u know where ur food comes from?

so i just finished watching oprah and im sitting on a moral fence right now i watched how the cows get slaughtered their skin pulled off and their guts falling out so the question is could i be vegan? and i think the answer is no could i be vegan-ish? maybe i could give up meat on some days and i can for sure buy grass fed free range meat i know an animal is still getting killed for my dinner but to be truthful it makes it not so bad knowing it had a happy life before and in my opinion is way healthier to go the grass fed route so maybe for 2011 i think the goal is to be more conscious of where my food comes from and if i dont know maybe i shouldnt eat it
