So, I’ve been feeling like my body could use a little reset, and after some thought (and hyping myself up), I’ve decided to go meatless for the entire month of February. Yup, 28 days, no meat. Am I nervous? A little. But I’m also excited to see how this challenge will make me feel. Now, I’m putting this out here for accountability. Because if I don’t tell someone, I might just slide back into some BBQ wings by day three. You know how it is. 😂

Why I’m Doing This
For me, it’s all about giving my body a break and seeing how I can fuel myself differently. Here’s what I’m hoping to gain:
More Energy: I’m ready to wake up feeling lighter and more energized.
Better Digestion: I’ve heard so many good things about how plant-based eating helps with gut health, and I’m trying to see what the hype is about.
Skin Glow-Up: Because listen, if this helps me glow, I’m all in.
And honestly, February feels like the perfect month—it’s short, so I’m easing into this without feeling like it’s too overwhelming.
My Game Plan
I know the key to sticking with this is preparation. Here’s how I’m setting myself up for success:
Stocking Up on Meatless Options: I’m filling my fridge and pantry with beans, lentils, tofu, nuts, seeds, and veggies I actually like.
Keeping My Seasoning Game Strong: Just because I’m skipping meat doesn’t mean I’m skipping flavor. The garlic powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder are ready.
Starting Simple: I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel. Think tacos, stir-fry, and pasta—just with a plant-based twist.
What I’m Planning to Eat
Here’s a sneak peek at what my meals might look like:
Breakfasts
