Lunch at Chevy's

Yesterday I went to lunch with a friend and was wondering, how does one be vegan in a mexican restaurant? Actually it was pretty easy, I ordered the veggie fajitas and the black beans, rather than refried ones. I forgot to cancel the sour cream - but not a huge problem as I begin this journey. I ate very well, even skipped dinner later that evening. I ended up eating well (and it was free for me!) I do know it wasn't low-fat, but perhaps it was all the "right" kinds of fat.... Hmmm....

It was an interesting experiment and one that will continue. I didn't need the cheese that has always sounded so good, didn't even miss it. So, the journey continues, and it will get stronger and stronger as the days go on.

Any of you have success stories - or not? Share them here, would love to hear.

Tomorrow we all get our blood drawn for cholesterol, iron, D and B vitamins. There may be other things being tested, but it'll be interesting to see how my son stacks up against us - as he's been away at college living on Cafeteria food or Pizza, Pizza and more Pizza. It'll kill me if his numbers come in better than mine! It might make me have a stroke!
