So, I Googled "chick" so I could find a picture of this adorable creature, but kind of interesting what also came up in my image search. Girls and stuff...
Today, I cut out birds. I can now only eat fish. I'm going to an Indian restaurant tonight, and just to be sure I could actually eat there, I looked up the menu. They actually have a vegetarian section, which I think is really cool. I used to completely ignore that part of the menu, but now it sounds really delicious. Check this one out:
Vegetable Coconut Curry - Mixed vegetable with onion, tomatoes, coconut milk & spices.

Sounds pretty great to me! And I love curry! YUM!
I'm almost finished with the first half of Alicia Silverstone's book (the second half is all recipes), and right now I'm reading about the different kinds of diets she offers: flirting, vegan, superhero. Flirting is basically trying it out and substituting things in your every day meals for something vegetarian. Vegan is going off of all animal products entirely. The superhero diet is a vegan diet, but mostly consuming whole grains, beans, and veggies, but also buying organically and understanding when to buy produce (since most fruits are not in season year-round).
So, I think I will start with vegan and then try out superhero. I would like to eventually have that understanding in my diet anyway, so starting out easy and researching more on organic foods and brands will be a big step.
Let's make a new outline, shall we?
Feb. 15: No poultry, only fish
March 1: Completely vegan
June 1: Superhero
I think three months should give me a good amount of time to study up on everything that I need to know.
Now, there's even another step after superhero and that's the macrobiotic diet. I have tried reading about it and am still kind of confused on the whole thing. Besides chewing your food thoroughly before swallowing, I don't really understand the differences. It sounds like fish might be a part of macrobiotic....but I'm not sure.
Would anyone care to enlighten me?
