Aaaaaand... that was the first time she has seen me since I've lost a lot of weight. She was... a little surprised.

Haha... she didn't say anything about it to me, but when she was driving back home with my aunt (who works with me) she said, "Did you see him? He looks as scrawny as he did when he was little. He has his babyface again." LOL

Mmm... Ice cream sammiches.... pie.... and you still lost a little? You suck. I'm jealous. I'm curious, and forgive me if you've covered this before, but what made you decide to eat vegetarian?

Hmmm... I don't know if I've discussed it before on here. I donate blood often and the place I go to does a free mini physical for you including a cholesterol check. Well, my result came back at 290 (normal is under 180). Yikes! It was actually just kind of perfect timing that made me a vegetarian. At the time I was reading a lot of Buddhist and Taoist philosophy and vegetarianism was fresh in my mind. I read up on it and found that it was effective in lowering cholesterol (because cholesterol is only found in animal based foods). I phased out one thing at a time. Beef on week, chicken the next, etc. until I was a vegetarian. When I started I didn't think I would be a vegetarian forever. I figured I would drop my numbers, get healthy, and ease back into a more normal sensible diet. Well, in my research I dug a little too deep and found out some things that I couldn't quite unlearn. And while I became a vegetarian for health and not ethical reasons, the ethical reasons factor into why I stay a vegetarian. It's kind of hard to talk about that too much without offending people, so I usually don't. I don't believe that eating meat is inherently wrong, I just don't think it's for me. I would recommend the Joaquin Phoenix (he's a vegan) narrated film "Earthlings" (it's on dvd and on *cough* google video), but with a warning... Don't watch it if you enjoy burgers. It is a powerful movie and has the tendency to change people. Alec Baldwin (a vegetarian) narrated a film for PETA, but it's much more graphic and I hate PETA anyway so I don't usually recommend that people watch that right off the bat. I did try veganism for two months, but it wasn't for me. I think I've been a vegetarian for about 2 years now. I'm sort of a weird vegetarian in that I hate PETA (with a passion), and I support hunters. If you (or anyone) has any questions about vegetarianism, feel free to ask (either on here or PM).

Hey! Welcome back Selina (it's going to take me awhile to stop thinking Pinkest Princess). I messed up my Achilles tendon during a run. A few too many miles in one week for me. I'm not supposed to run again for two weeks, but I love running and it's driving me insane.

Hmm. Interesting. A lot of vegetarians I know and my friend who is crazy into animal rights HATE PETA. I don't blame you guys... I mean really... who wants to call fish sea kittens? That does NOT make them cute. Unless they're Nemo. Nemo is cute.... Haha. I don't get offended from people voicing their opinions and points of views. I think it's stupid when people do, everyone is entitled to their own. Reminds me of a quote... "opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all STINK." Hahahaha... Anyway, kudos to you for an amazing lifestyle change and taking hold of your health, even if it did turn you into a hippy. ;) I could probably give up beef and poultry... but I don't think I could give up fish. I seriously love sushi way too much. So much that I prefer raw fish to cooked fish.

OH GAWD! Don't remind me about the sea kittens! (*PETA rage increases 200%*) Or the World of Warcraft protests... or the "Your Mom is a Murderer" comic books... or their Holocaust trivializations... or... AAAAAHHH!!!
