I put hummus in tortilla shells and rolled them up and microwaved them. Then a bit of salsa and a delicious snack/meal.

Day Fifteen: 10 Pounds
I didn't start this intending for it to be a diet. But after 15 days of being vegan (well 14 since I had pokey sticks and pizza last Sunday) I have lost somewhere around 10 pounds.

Days Ten - Fourteen: Pokey Sticks
Day Ten: Went to a Thai restaurant for lunch after my interview. Got some tofu ginger meal. Delicious, and super vegan. However the waitress talked me into trying Thai iced tea, which I later realized had cream in it. The rest of the day involved driving through terrible I 94 and I 57 traffic, recording a Christmas CD with the choir, and watching my roommates perform "Bad Romance" at a talent show. Crazy impressive btw, they learned how to play/sing everything by ear.
Day Eleven: After midnight the roommates got pizza, I couldn't help it. It was technically Sunday so I thought I'd have a couple slices of cheese pizza. It was pretty good, but extremely greasy.
Day Twelve: Waking up with heartburn from the cheese-nasty pizza, I decided to eat brunch vegan and not deal with dairy again. This is the second Sunday of the Vegan40, the first Sunday I remained vegan completely. But later this Sunday we wanted to get Pokey Stix (Cheesey breadsticks made from pizza dough). We ordered too much for four people but finished it all anway. Talk about stomach-ache, heartburn, and other related activities.... It was a refreshing reminder to NOT eat cheesey grease stuff. Which also means that my body has adjusted to the vegan diet. This might be an experience to adjust my diet more long term because it is a vivid (and physical) reminder of how terrible processed foods can be.
Day Thirteen: Recovered from the Sunday cheese binge. The cafeteria I eat at got a new flat bread wrap, its delicious with my hummus and veggies. I also added sprouts in the mix this time with a drizzle of vegetable oil and dash of salt. Then I warmed it on the panini grill.
Day Fourteen: The parents of a roommate were in town today. I hadn't seem them in over a year. His mom told me I look like I've lost weight in my face. I have no idea if there is any truth to that at all, but always fun to hear. Well sorta, I guess that means she thought I was fat last time I saw her. lol. Today was boring, more hummus and vegetables. I did wake up in time for breakfast of cheerios and almond milk though. But I did try panini grilling a jelly sandwhich. It tasted like a crepe dessert or something, sweet fruit filling and crispy bread.
That catches up for the past few days. I still haven't gotten to a scale. I don't feel like I've lost weight though. Since raspberry iced tea and potato chips are vegan.
