Committing.

Today was crazy busy, but good overall.  One of my favorite parts was listening to the CES fireside by Elder Holland.  He is amazing.  And I am SO BLESSED to know that we have living prophets NOW. One of the things that he said was that we can NEVER check our religion at the door.  Any door.

I know that being plant-based, and eating to live is not a religion, but I do feel like I was led to it by divine inspiration, and that it helps me draw nearer to God when I do it (NOT saying that people who eat other things are not spiritual...this way of eating just helps me feel more in tune), so I need to be committed to it.  I was debating eating borscht at J and J's house, as well as sampling Beth's biscuits, but after the talk, I decided that I wasn't going to check my commitment to eat to live at the door either, so I didn't give in to dairy or meat juice (I smell like meat after having spent time at their house :(.  I did eat lots of chips and salsa.

But tomorrow is the beginning of 6 weeks of real ETL. We'll see where it takes me.  October 22 will be my 6 week mark, and is when Taylor's new album will be released...maybe with the Ronan song on it. I stand up for loved ones present, future, and departed.

Today:
S: 6 hours
W: 138.4
E: n/a
5:00 grapes, tomatoes, rice, spicy green beans, mango salsa and corn chips at Amy F's bridal shower
6:00 three bananas, a tortilla with peanut butter and honey, a cup of soy milk
7:00 cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions with basalmic vinegar, chips and Montano's delicious salsa.
