Lab Rats

On February 21, 2018February 21, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I've been reading again, so watch out because I am beginning to feel dangerous with all my new knowledge: in fact, I had a full on, hour-long conversation with a friend about nutrition a couple of days ago and basically felt like I was able to teach them something.  Now, this friend is well read …

Coffee and Cigarettes

On February 17, 2018February 17, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I remember when I stopped drinking caffeine for the first time: it was March 2013 and directly after I found out that I was about 6 weeks pregnant (unfortunately that one didn't work out).  I went through some caffeine withdrawal for about 2 weeks and then it went away.  After a month of no coffee …

Are Vegans Still People?

On February 15, 2018February 15, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

Last night I was telling my daughter that I couldn't eat the cheese she was trying to share with me because I was a vegan.  I went on to explain to her that being a vegan meant that I didn't eat cheese, or milk, or yoghurt, or butter, or meat, or fish, and that I …

A Vegan In Texas :-)

On February 13, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

So, I have been avoiding travel for work for some time, primarily because I can't be bothered being away from home and I find that 90% of what needs to be done can be done remotely.  Many of my older and more technology-averse colleagues would disagree, but they're wrong! Anyway, my work travel took me …

Doctor Enlightened.

On February 9, 2018February 9, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

My youngest sister hasn't been feeling well recently and I've been sharing with her some of what I'm learning about diet and nutrition to see if that can help.  She's been doing pretty well with it, but she's still not feeling well.  So, she went to see her Doctor and, based on her symptoms, he …

Grouchy vegan.

On February 5, 2018February 5, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I thought I would feel great as a vegan, but I don't.  I feel tired, I have a headache and I feel bloated and grouchy, and I've put on 4lbs.  Now, I appreciate that how I'm feeling could be absolutely nothing to do with being vegan and simply a low-level virus or something making me …

Forking knives!

On January 31, 2018January 31, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I watched Forks over Knives tonight and although not as sensational as What The Health, it was a very good and informed perspective on our health as driven by our dietary choices. I learned that sugary and processed food that’s high in fat is partly appealing because when we look at it our brains believe …

Why so serious….!?

On January 31, 2018January 31, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I love the Batman movies, the ones with Christian Bale (how hot is he!?) and I particularly love The Dark Night with the most awesome Joker played by Heath Ledger. There are two things the Joker says that I think are great: 1. the bit about when you have a plan nobody panics (I apply …

Feeding our greed.

On January 30, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

I found myself sitting in my office at lunch time, starving, but unable to figure out what I should eat.  I hadn't brought food with me, which is unusual, so I was relying on local (out of the city centre) food establishments to be able to accommodate my diet.  However, I was then paralyzed by …

What The Health?!

On January 28, 2018 By changingmyoutcomeLeave a comment

Watch this documentary "What The Health" on Netflix.  I couldn't stop watching it and although it did partly feel a little dramatic, it may have changed my life in just a 90 minute period of time.... Now I'm in a major quandary about whether or not I should eat animal products at all..... despite my …
