Vegan junk food

I’ve been on a kick lately that involves a surplus of junk food…. Which is NOT GOOD. Incidentally, you would think that eating vegan would directly relate to lots of fresh fruits, veggies and legumes. Which, (at least for me) it normally does. I get into kicks where I want junk, though, and this week appears to be one of those times. I started off making a HUGE batch of e. & stell’s pasta (SO GOOD!), but then I ate it all (okay, it was over 2 days, but STILL!). Then my coworker had Oreos, which are surprisingly vegan (bad news for me!)…and of course, I couldn’t say no. So, I realize that some of it is stress eating and some of it is lack of control, either way, it’s GOT TO STOP. So I’m sharing my love of all things vegan, including junk food. I understand that everything, even junk food has its place…just not in my diet for the next month or so. Yeah, I’m bringing cherry pie bars and vegan cookies (which are so huge they’re more of a meal) on my road trip, but I’ve got to get back to eating my greens, reds, yellows and purples (not to forget orange, blue, pink…). So that’s my goal starting right this minute. When you eat raw, there is so much fiber in your body that there’s not alot of extra space for junk. So this weekend, I’m focusing on raw foods, and will probably break out 12 Steps to Raw Foods: How to End Your Dependency on Cooked Food. Time to go back to basics. I have a feeling that my blogs over the next week will focus on diet and exercise (shocking, I know), but I really need to get back to eating healthful, nourishing foods and my barre workouts. Here goes nothin’!
