I visited my old university this weekend and noticed that all of my friends had gained a bit of weight (most likely due to all the drinking/ eating out), and I felt myself falling back into that habit when I was visiting. I'm home now and am feeling pretty dirty about all of the preservatives and junk I had (I generally eat clean/ homecooked/ veg), so I'm going to try vegan for a week and see how it goes to try to hopefully my system back in check (also to trick myself into eating millions of veggies). It's been really interesting seeing how my body really craves and is used to wholesome stuff now that I've been paying close attention to what I put into it, and the side-effects of eating garbage/ drinking are basically being rejected with maddd tummy aches :(
