What do you eat?

I stopped eating meat and dairy products about a year and a half ago. The reason was purely for my health. Despite being insanely healthy I could never shift my high cholesterol. At my 40 year check up here in the UK they suggested drugs despite weighing 140 pounds at 5' 7" and living an extremely active healthy lifestyle. I knew there was a better option. After a conversation with a friend the one thing I'd never tried was a plant based diet. I dropped meat and dairy for 6 months and had my blood checked. My cholesterol had been reduced by 1/3! I was sold. Since then I have eaten meat and/or dairy maybe 6 or 8 times in the past 2 years. 

People always wonder what I eat, well here's what I ate today, and what I eat most days:

Breakfast:

Overnight oats made with almond milk, with a couple tablespoons of chia seeds and a handful of berries.

Vitamins: iron, B12, D3

Two slices of toast with dairy free butter spread.

Coffee.

Lunch:

Avocado sandwich: two slices of bread, 1/2 avocado, mustard, tomato slices, spinach, pickles

Big bag of vegetables: carrots, peppers, radishes, cucumber, celery, etc.

Apple, banana

Smoothie: pint and a half of water, banana, 1/2 avocado, 1/2 fresh beet, ton o' kale, handful of frozen mango, pineapple, berries. I'll sometimes eat spinach instead of kale. I try to eat this blended salad every day and usually eat a pint as a late breakfast, a pint on the drive to work, and a pint on my drive home from work. Blending allows me to eat a lot more greens and also is easier on my digestive tract, i.e. no farts! I'll sometimes add hemp seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, out of date vegetables and  fruit, basically whatever is around too just not to waste food. It may look nasty but is delicious! 

Snack:

Peanut butter and jam sandwich, more coffee, orange, apple, couple ginger cookies

Dinner:

Piece of toast with butter before Jeet Kune Do. I also ate the carrots and sprouts leftover from the kids' dinner.

Baked potato with garbanzo and black beans, sea salt and yeast flakes on top after JKD.

Random handfuls of Brazil nuts, cashews, etc.

And that's about it. I only drink water and coffee. Pretty simple. Main rules besides no meat or dairy are to eat things as non-processed as possible. The cool thing about eating non-processed? I can eat as much as I want and not worry about overeating.
