Know your Why. If your reasoning is rooted in something significant, sticking to a whole foods, plant-based diet is pretty easy. Start slow. Begin with one meal, say dinner, and find recipes that are simple and you enjoy. And don’t approach this with a  “this as a life-long, I’m never going to eat that again” mindset. Instead of thinking about foods that you are giving up, focus on the amazing foods you get to eat! And take it one day at a time. Give it a month. Make a commitment to one month and see how you feel. People tend to make this a lifelong change because of how amazing they feel!
