Move 1: A personal Perspective
"You're A What?"
After deciding on my topic for my Capstone, I decided it would be just plain hypocritical to write an entire research paper on animal agriculture while stuffing my face with burgers or bacon, so I began my own journey towards veganism. For my first move, I went further into depth about my decision to eventually become a vegan. Beginning with vegetarianism and my journey thus far, emphasizing on the reactions I have received from others, move one is a personal narrative on how I was affected by lifestyle and diet change. It was definitely a rocky start, adjusting to being a vegetarian wasn't easy for me and my body suffered because of it. However, whenever I was down it was helpful to think about the positive effects my eating habits had on my everyday life; like lessening my carbon footprint, being more thoughtful and compassionate, and overall healthier. Something else that really helped me was following vegan blogger on instagram or watching Youtube videos. One thing I love about vegan food is how pretty it is! By the end of my project I had my eating habits down to a tee, the cravings had lessened, and being a vegetarian was just a normal part of my life.
