And so it begins ...

So firstly.... Hi

My names Lili ( the domains a giveaway right?)

I don't know really where to start, from the beginning or how I came about  wanting to start my own little space on the internet,

I suppose the start would be a good place to maybe... start?

Well, I have always thought I was a huge animal lover, but I never actually realised how much I was contributing to the pain ad suffering of something that I thought I loved until recently,

so wheres the start?

What the health....

My cousin had been talking to me about this ''insane'' documentary that she had been watching on Netflix, and how it was making her never want to eat meat again,

Laughable my first thought
''what about bacon though''

She said she hadn't finished it yet but she recommened i watch it, a couple of weeks went by and i still had'nt watched it. It was my day off and it was raining and what better excuse for a lazy sofa day right?
My mum called me to tell me about how one of her clients who was also a family friend had recently gone vegan after watching all these programmes on netflix, so i told her about how i had been recommended it too.

And that my friends is how it started,

what the health
cowspiracy
forks over knives
earthlings
vegucated
fed up

amd you tube... lots and lots of you tube,

From the day i watched the first programme, i have not touched a single peice of meat, milk or eggs since, you may of noticed that i havnt mentioned cheese... thats because i have eaten it twice (its all about honesty here, and i kinda feel like i didnt really have much choice), anyway its about tranisitioning isnt it? And nobody ever said tranisitioning would be easy.

So how did i get here you may ask, well im six weeks in now and have grown a huge passion for animal  welfare, my health and of course my new found recipes. There is becoming such a big movement with veganism that i wanted to have my own space where i could share the highs, the lows, the recipes and veganism talk with likeminded vegans and people transitioning.

If you are a meat eater reading this, because you have somehow or other stubbled across me and you are thinking

''What about bacon though'' (shocked emoji face)

Please be kind and remeber that i was not so very long ago was the person that thought i could never go a day without bacon, but believe me you can and you know what ?

its bloody great!!
