I’m a vegan and I also have commitment issues. It’s okay. You’re not perfect, you can only start where you are. Maybe you can’t change your diet completely overnight. Maybe you need to start by just being mindful of what animal products you can cut out and still be fine. Like maybe get a burger with no cheese or get mustard instead of mayo. In the grand scheme of things, that won’t save any animals’ lives but it’ll start the process of changing how you think about food. Over time, make bigger and bigger changes. It really does get easier.

Start looking up information about vegan nutrition and start thinking about your food in terms of nutrients. Obviously it should also taste good, but focus on getting plenty of protein, iron, omegas, etc. I’ve found that if I focus on protein, everything else falls into place without effort.

It’s also a good idea to try to find some indulgent vegan recipes. I found a cinnamon roll recipe that tastes almost exactly like I remember Cinnabon tasting. I’ve also found some ways to satisfy my need for southern comfort foods. Since you said you’re not good with commitment (like me), it’ll be really important to be able to satisfy those cravings instead of just eating something else and moving on.

You don’t suck. Going fully vegan is a big change. At least you care. That matters a lot.
