follow your heart

sorry my tumblr friends for not posting new things! I have been so busy, soon I will post what has been going on!

blessthebeast:

According to the NYT, Americans eat 10 billion animals every year.  Ten billion.  When I quit eating meat (almost forty years ago), it was estimated that I alone would save close to 3,000 animals in my lifetime.  That’s a good start. 

I am chosing to live a high carb low-fat vegan lifestyle, this means no meat, no dairy, no eggs, and no seafood. I am doing this for my health, animal rights, and world hunger.

My health

I have read The China Study, which is a great book! Are bodies are not designed to eat meat! And there is this crazy belief that we need meat for protein, BUT no! The protein we get from meat is from the plants that those animals ate! Eating this lifestyle you will live to be very old, you will help your body fight of cancer and diseases, you will have more energy, and be happy! So many health benefits!! What is reallu crazy is Dr’s today are trained with medicine ( some instances medicine is good, and needed) However, nutrition is the key. For example, the author of skinny bitch survived cancer by nutrition, and you do not need pills to lower your cholesterol you need good nutrition, duhh! I suggest you research what meat and animal products do for you, it is for your life, your health, your whole well being!

Aniaml Rights

Over 2,000 cattle are slaughtered a day to support meat eating habits! Animals are tortured and violently killed everyday, it is sick! I am so sick of people saying, “well other animals eat other animals, it is like the circle of life” WRONG like I said are bodies are not meant to eat flesh and meat! O and you need protein blah blah blah you get protein from plants!

World hunger

So I preach how I am all about love of people and want to help others, but my meat eating habits totallu contradicts that statement. Onre billion people suffer hunger and malnutrition, and 40 million die from starvation, most are children! One third of the world’s grain harvest is diverted from feeding people to feeding livestock! so basically if people would wake up and stop eating meat, we can feed everyone in the world! so think about it.. when you you eat meat you just contributed to the death of a starving child! This is just a cold hard fact! sorry…

one vegan meal

you saved 3000 gallons of water

you saved 16 punds of grain

you saved your money and your health

you helped save the planet!

Eating meat, aside from smoking, is the most harmful thing you can do for your body!

you think that the thousands of animals being slaughtered a day are inspected! HA so the many animals that have diseases well guess what you eat there disease, you eat thier fat, you eat thier stress and all the fucking hormones and shit that is pumped into them….just saying!

Some girls need a delete history button for their vagina (someone’s facebook status)

I think the most important thing to have in the world is confidence, belief in you, and have self-love. Without confidence NOTHING else matters.

 Not having confidence is like a car turned on, and pushing the gas pedal while still in park, all that gas wasted, but you are not going anywhere!

When I was younger I had absolutely NO confidence in myself, I thought  I was so stupid, and though I was always a hard worker, my grades stayed in the c range, sometimes I would receive Bs, but As ha! Once in a blue moon, but I worked so hard! I had NO confidence. Then my sophomore year in college, I told myself I am not dumb, and I am smart, and can be good in school, and I started getting as!! I was a psychology major and we had to take stat, which was very difficult, and many people changed their major, because they did not do well in the class, and I got an A! Now if I did not have that confidence NO WAY would I have gotten that grade!

It is such an amazing feeling when you truly love yourself and have confidence. You are so much freer, and doing things you like, and not worrying what others think. And remember having confidence will always take some work. It is like maintaining your weight. You try hard to get to your goal weight, by exercise and choosing a healthy lifestyle, and woo you achieved it! But now you have to maintain it. The joy of this is when you finally exercise regularly and eat healthy, it is no longer too much work, and with those life choices that are part of your life it comes natural and your goal weight is maintained! Get it? So work to get confidence and maintain it, then sooner or later it is just so natural and a part of who you are! Amazing!! :)  

Remember you are amazing, and no one else in the WHOLE wide world can be you! Embrace you beauty, because everyone is beautiful! Beauty shines from the inside out!
