Okay so its day # 3 of this vegan life style and I am hungry.... well not really but I am. Its hard to explain; I know I have eaten but feel like I haven't or just ate a littke - I guess I am looking for that "full" feeling which isn't happening. For the past couple of days I have only eaten fruits and vegetables - I am really not that hungry... just want a steak :) . Its probably more of a mental thing than anything. I realize that it takes planning and preparation or u will be hungry. Because I was tired of just eating juices and berries - I woke up this morning and made rice, spinach, plantains and I had some asparagus already cooked in the refrigerator. I also packed a huge apple and these organic breakfast bars, which I have to say aren't so bad after all, two pieces of whole wheat bread and a mixture of almonds and sunflower seeds.... It should be a good day. If you are the faint at heard or a have a light stomach u might not want to read on.... Okay so why didn't anyone tell me how REGULAR I was going to be ?!?! Like come on!! 3 and 4 times a day? Are you serious?? I was sitting in rehearsal like ooooo gotta go go go (as my grandmother would say). Woke up this morning and had to go again.... whhhhaaaaatttt? Lets just say my system is clean <3 But on the other hand I feel great. I have some sort of energy that I havent had in a while. So much so I think that after work I am going to go downstairs and get on that thing they call the elliptical and work out for like a half an hour or so. See what happens :)
I loved it though and am proud of you. The meal you cooked this morning sounds really Yum! Because of our convo Iast night I am having only veggies for lunch today! I cooked the string beans last night like I told you but def put some smoked meat in it (baby steps!). I'm jealous of your 3-4 times a day "Regularity". Thats an experience i've never had! lol
ReplyDeletethis is a nice documentary... you should take a few pictures, and try to see how much of a difference there is.
