So, I've actually told two people about my new path towards my new approach to eating. They've both been told that it's secret... and they're supportive.

I am feeling a little wary about packaging and processed foods. Last time I was vegan, I depended on boxed and packaged foods a lot. Like, for falafel and for tofu-scramble and frozen things and stuff like that.

However, just like I'm starting on this path towards this eating approach, I'm going to start on a path towards no packaging and processing...

I'm going to eat packaged and processed things, if they are vegan, and, at the same time, begin teaching myself how to make my own versions from scratch.

I'm wanting to eat better. Okay... That's not really true. I love what I eat. What I actually, truly, really want is to *feel* better... Okay, and I want to be thin. That's the truth. I'm pretty sure that's the truth. :-)

I'm remembering the last time I felt truly good and it was in my mid to late twenties. Just a few years after I started eating meat & dairy again, after eating vegan for most of my life.

So, I'm thinking that I'll go back to eating vegan. I've been looking at a lot of web sites, but I'm not wanting to announce this to my existing friends, as I don't want the pressure of them watching me to fail or succeed and I kinda think that I can do it pretty transparently.

I mean, my mom will see it pretty much right away, but no one else needs to know, right?
