Eating Habits.




This is something I have been wanting to talk about for a while now on this little space on the web, I have briefly mentioned it on Instagram and Twitter (@coffeechanel) but I haven't fully explained what I am doing and what I plan to do with my eating habits. I am changing the way I see food for my health physically and mentally, as well as in part for the environment and as a way to shine light on poor farming habits. From this description and if you have seen any of my Instagram posts lately, you will have guessed that I am working towards eating a predominately vegan diet. I am currently still eating both meat and dairy products however in smaller quantities that before. I personally see meat as a treat food and only eat it when I know that the farming practices have been organic and the animals have been allowed to live outside. As for dairy I stand by the same principles for buying it however I do eat it more often.

For now I am trying to eat two vegan meals a day and then eating a vegetarian meal with my family later in the day. I am doing this along with only eating meat once or twice a month. My aim by the end of the summer is to have three vegan days a week and four mostly vegan days. I am doing this gradually as I need to work out what works best for my body as well as not forcing my diet on my family and making it easier to visit friends and family. At the moment I tend to eat my vegan meals at breakfast and lunch as my family are still at work and school so it is easier for me to eat then. I also know that during the summer my sister and I are planning to do a week long vegan challenge and eat only vegan meals and foods, I don't know when this will be but I will update you.

Here are my favourite vegan food and lifestyle inspiration accounts on Instagram:
