it seems what my parents and teachers told me is true

veggies are good. although i cant say im healthier (since ive been sick a lot lately. thats why my body is clamoring for exercise). but i can see its good effects and benefits.

just learned about the Meatless Monday/Luntiang Lunes campaign earlier today when i overheard some program on TV.

the campaign reminded me of my meat-free lunch from Monday to Friday. i started doing this around mid-May so im now entering my third month. i think i was able to do this meat-free lunch during weekdays 98% of the time. 1% of the time i ate meat because food was provided for. my meat-free lunch only applies when i buy my own lunch. the other 1% is when im really not in the mood for veggies so i add a little meat to my lunch so it would end up half veggies, half meat. even if its been months, i still dont like eating veggies most of the time. it just so happens that i told myself i should start increasing my consumption of vegetables (because i was really starting to feel the pain of being unhealthy). and im starting to like meat less. there are days when i really dont like to eat meat and i prefer eating veggies. but that doesnt happen usually. there are weeks when i eat only veggies for two consecutive days. 

im amazed that i was able to last this long, eating only veggies for lunch during office days.  but even with the increased veggie consumption, im still a meat-loving creature.
