My life, my choice, my goal

So this is my life:
I am a mother, a wife, a grad student, and a graduate assistant. What does this mean? I am a super busy person.
I get up at 8 am with my wonderful husband, off to work at nine, school at 4, and then back home at 6:30.  After that my grandparents drop my son off and that's mommy and son time  (unless my husband is home, then it's family time) until about 8:45. After that I work on homework till about midnight. Has that schedule held true for forever? Not really, but that's besides the point.

This means though that in my schedule I don't really get good food in my system. Mainly, I get up grab a snack bar, go to work, eat some lunch that I microwave or worse, eat something on campus. I go to school and eat junk for when I come home.

So I decided to make a change. I want to be healthier and I want to make myself cook. My grandparents are kind enough to feed our son when he is over at there house, so I don't have to worry about him and normally my husband is at work. So there is only me to worry about.

Now, I want to eat healthier and I thought going veg would be a great way to start to try. I don't eat pig or cow anyways, why not give up the other stuff. I think this would also force myself to not eat out as much and therefore save me some money! Which is great, because I'm a poor married/college student!

I have break coming up soon and my goal is to eat/cook veg that entire break!!! I hope this goes well. The future goal is to stay veg for a year or until I have mastered it and then try to go vegan.

I also want to document everyday what I eat. I'm hoping that if I blog everyday this will help.

So here it goes! My journal to a veg kind of life! I know it's not going to be easy, but I think I can do this and maybe convince my husband to join me!
