Vegan Diary Day 4, 5 & 6

Day 4

Day 4 had a good begging , not a good ending thou :S

Rice noodles w/ vegetables for lunch [ BTW. Having trouble w/ ur vegan diet ? .. Seems like u’ve got nothing to eat ? …Now Now, put that GRASS  ur calling lunch aside and listen to us ! Asian food is ur answer. We’ve actually been living on rice products and soy sauce !]

Guess what I had for dinner ..? SUSHI ! again ! only this this time I broke the rules and ate some cream cheese alongside w/ it ! and we snacked on some ice cream too.  Truth is I couldn’t take it anymore ! I CANNOT GIVE UP MY DAIRY PRODUCTS ! I CANNOT !!!! And NEWSFLASH … I WON’T ! I need my cheese , i need my butter  I need my Ice-cream I need my CALCIUM LOL !! So we decided we were DONE w/ veganism !        D-O-N-E . We’re eating dairy products now. Eggs are still prohibited !

Day 5 !

The cleaning lady made mashed potatoes and some beef for lunch :S so we ate a biiiiig bowl of Mash!! We didn't even stare at the meat ! We don't need it !

D&E went out at nite for some drinks ! it was like almost midnight  when hunger struck ! so we had some cheap and delicious yumyuminourtumtum pizza  ! Veggie one !!

Day 6 !

The Enis went to a party today !  They are  sad to say they ate : MEAT !!!! It wasn't one of those Veggie-friendly parties ! and we didn't wanna starve to death !!! We had chicken :S …… ok yes we also ate chicharrones !  …… and ….. Beef        :(           It was either that or chugging on a six pack  [YES !! Beer CAN be an entire meal ! XD ]

Eni <3 Soy Milk !

The Enis were kinda busy & tired yesterday so they kinda-sorta forgot bout the blog entry :( But guess what !!! Double entry today HORRAYS !

We’ve been CRAVING for cheese these past few days !! Like seriously WE NEED CHEESE !!!!  I think we can definitely go months w/o  meat but dairy products … ? OMG BECKY ! WE need Butter AND cheese AND yogurt !!!  And we miss our beloved mayo so so so so utterly MUCH !

Enough whining LETS VEGGIE TALK ! We’ve been eating real yummy food actually ! We had some Chickpea-green plantain  ‘picadillo(?)’w/ some white rice and tomato salad for  yesterday’s lunch  and We had Vegan Sushi nite <3

We made a real creamy tomato soup for today’s lunch  w/ some pita bread and a tomato-cucumber-mint salad  ! WE LOVE !! And we went out for dinner ! Wes could only eat 5 things in the menu ! How sad ! :S 5 out of 50, maybe ?

We’ve realized this veggie thing makes us go pee every  hour or so ! ! ! and we’ve been eating a lot lately ! its like we never get full ! We eat and get hungry within an hour or so :S Hope we don't get any fatter !!! LOLS

Vegan Challenge : Day 1 !!

8:30 am  --> Growling stomach !!! The Enis were  seriously hungry so they woke up ! We though we would have  sum cereal with soy milk for breakfast  ^-^    ….  but then  we realized Enis cereal {Kellogg's Komplete w/ Almonds} has honey[that's a no-no ] in it   :”( We seriously ran out of breakfast ideas ! But Enis chef-like-brain  started -engineering ideas- [we wish lol ] so we ended up eating multigrain cookie-like thingies  w/ sum oniontomatosoysugar ‘'marmalade’. It was actually real yumyum-in-our-tumtum  *plans on makin large quantities ! We LOVE *  *Ignores fact that they were CRAVING for sum cheese we had on our fridge *

Lunch was actually easier than we thought ! We made sum Pad Thai w/ tamarind sauce ,we just omitted Eggs  and Chicken . We even had guest ovah and there we no complains …. Ok ..ok ! It was a tad too spicy ! but it was scrumptiously yummy.  There was no need nor desire for meat ! I swear !

Sounds like we’re the perfect vegan specimen, huh ? ? ? ……..

 

 

 

 

 

 

….WE CHEATED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES !!! :(  WE CHEATED !!! We didn't mean to !! WE SWEAR !!! We were out w/ a friend  an i just grabbed her purse and got some cinnamon Altoids  [we were craving for pizza by then :S] and shoved it into our mouths  . 5 minutes later we checked the ingredients list just for curiosity … and BAAAm ! GELATIN [derived from collagen in animal’s skin :S]! effing kidding me ! Who would’ve though Altoids had gelatin in them !!!  We now thinks all products should  specify if they’re suitable for vegans… By law ! !!!                                           After the gelatin incident we went for some coffee at this real Hella-yum pastry shop ![we were dying inside !!! ] The Enis asked  if there was lactose/egg free products  and they didn't even now !!! *urgh *not a vegan friendly world lol. so they just bought a regular coffee  ; no milk of course and went to the supermarket next to the pastry shop ! We were in there like for 15 min trying to read all the small print  [Insert complain bout product specifications HERE ! …AGAIN] in them cookies [entire aisle full of things wes couldn't  eat ] till we found the oh-so-desired[maybe not] egg/lactose/honey free  Cookie utopia lol ! We could say them cookies were tasty [banana cinnamon blablablahs ] but not as tasty as them pastries we had to stare at T_T 

For dinner we whipped up a pasta salad with this weird shaped pasta called Pignolina [just semolin and water ] with sum avocado, tomato and broccoli ! It was actually tastier than it looked !

We’re actually OK w/ this challenge ! I did crave for some pizza and some Ice cream ! And i did feel limited when eating out  but on the  good side its busting our  creativity . Helps us think outside the box [Bacon-made box LOL] *yawns !*

Feeling kinda tired hope im still excited bout this by tomorrow !

Enibeni

UPDATE: just had a –hunger attack –! Thank God for the GalloPinto leftover lol

5-minutes-till-VEGAN-WEEK Complain !

*Writing with ice cream bucket in hand !*Lols  gotta  enjoy the non-vegan lifestyle while it lasts !

Just wanted to complain bout how expensive soy milk can be !!!!  Effing 3000 colones for a bottle of soy milk ?!?!!?  Eni thinks its overpriced ! We thought grocery shopping would be cheaper now that we’re vegan … guess its not ! ….but anyways .. daddy’s the one paying for it so i got 2 bottles [got the CHEAPEST one ] and guess what ???  One of the bottles got kinda spilled all over the fridge URGH ! so it now just half full ! :S

D&E Vegan Week Challenge & Random Challenges Soon




Starting this August 3rd till the 9th, Erick and Diana are going on a strict vegan diet.


They will also v/b log about their experiences. Everyday you will see Erick post about the progress, thoughts, and advice. By the end of the week, Diana will post a vlog.


So here are the rules:

-Golden Rule : D&E Should/Will ask themselves : Does this shit that I'm about to shove in ma' mouth come from an animal ? If the answer is YES, D&E WILL NOT eat it. (Nini no bad words! I'd like this to be kid friendly! -D).
-No meat[ dah !]. Bugs are included too, just in case there's lack of protein, we won't resort to eating them.
-Cannot eat dairy products .
-NO CHEATING !




On another note, we would like you to challenge us to anything that you can possibly think of. Just leave your comment below.



Thanks.

D&E
