Being a vegan, week uno.

I've officially been vegan for one week, and this is what I've noticed so far about myself:

1.) I've had the craziest mood swings
2.) I had a dream that I was driving a car out of cheese. cheese wheels and all. Also I was smiling.
3.) I'm eating lots of stuff with protein, but my hair is still falling out..strain by strain...tears by tears D;
4.) Everyone is constantly asking me how the "vegan thing" is going, and every time they ask, I feel reminded of how I can't eat cheese, and how bad this upsets me.
5.) I miss cheese.
6.) I have the most bizarre cravings ever. i.e- while at work last night, I kept smelling lasagna, but nobody else could smell it! weird!
7.) There are very few restaurants or stores that sell vegan friendly items, which is ridiculous!
8.) I sort of feel tired all the time?
9.) popcorn with no butter on it, makes going to the movies very VERY depressing.
10.) milk chocolate has milk in it. 1+1=2 if you get what I'm saying.

Basically, being vegan is harder then I expected and I have a whole new respect for anyone who does it as a choice, not a challenge. That is all.
