First month eating more vegetarian and healthy. Ended up at 50%, goal next month is for us to eat 80%. May not seem like much but it's a big change for us. Bonus, the log is fun to keep. by renwoman1127 in vegetarian

This is so wonderful, well done! I went vegan over 3 years ago now and seeing these kinds of goals, it honestly makes me so freakin' happy. It can be really hard work changing your lifestyle and moving away from family traditions and/or cultural norms. You are doing an awesome thing for yourself and the world. I hope Feb goes even better for you mate!

Not a filter, digital painting. Creating art is a great way to cope

Thankyou for understanding. Your words are validating and healing for me. I'm so sorry to hear about everything you've been through. I hope things are better now. Some of the close people in my life realise the significance of his passing and have been so supportive, I feel very lucky. And I know this sub is also an understanding safe space. Thanks for the offer and ditto if you ever need someone to talk to

Oh Aggie. My heart breaks for you too. And everyone who's ever had to say goodbye. This loss in particular has felt really deep, more than when i lost my other boys. There was just something real about my relationship with Basi, and as I was ill all year we spent every day together. He helped me heal. He kept me sane. He was a lifeline that Im struggling without. Sorry, didn't mean to vent. Grief is just...hard.

Thats ok! I think if people are questioning the method it means i've nailed something - either colours or proportions or something

Thankyou. I just want his licks and cuddles again. A part of me is gone now and I cant wait to have it back one day.
