So, I've been a vegetarian for the past 8 years, and I meant to go vegan when I turned 18... which was two years ago.
So, now that I'm jobless, not in school, and basically a bum, I'm feeling like I should do SOMETHING in a positive direction.
Or, rather, two things.
When I was 18, rather than dropping dairy, I picked up smoking. At this point, I'm not addicted, and I'm not a heavy smoker - I have maybe two or three cigs a day. Any attempts I've made to quit have really been halfhearted. The momentum of change just... wasn't there, ya know?
So, now, I'm thinking maybe if I group tobacco in with animal products when I go cold tofurky (I'm definitely not a person to do things gradually) then that will make dropping both easier. Especially because one of my favorite small pleasures is a cappuccino and a cigarette...
What do you guys think? Anyone tried a double-stop like that?
(also, if anyone has a good guide to making the switch from vegetarian to vegan, it would be appreciated!)
