3 days into being vegan/ vegitarian.. yesterday i had a bad headache! started at around 1400 and didnt go away till i ate dinner. Really odd because i wasn't hungry, but i ate because i knew i had to. Here's a break down of what i ate:
Breakfast: Superfood Smoothie
Kale
Banana
Silk
Superfood Powder
Carrots
I felt great afterwards.. almost feels like my body absorbed everything quickly. This didn't seem like such a big feat because i woke up feeling fresher than ever. Usually im groggy when i wake up and feel that way until i finish my morning workout. Yesterday, like today, i woke up refreshed and ready to start the day.
Lunch: Stirfry
Zucchini
Snow Peas
Carrots
Onion
Garlic
Coconut oil
w/ Hummus
Had a very hard time getting this all down. It wasn't much but i felt like i ate the equivalency of a 18oz steak.
Dinner: Vegan Stirfry (Got this recipe off the internet)
Vegan Whorchester (sp?) Sauce
Soy Sauce
Flour
Water
Snow Peas
Green Beans
Carrots
Onion
Broccoli
Zucchini
Mushrooms
w/Couscous
Had a headache but it immediately went away once i started eating. Felt energized again but again, this was ALOT of food to take in.
All in all this experiment is going quite well. I've dropped 4lbs, i'm not hungry and i'm barely working out. I'm starting to run again but it's nothing compared to what i did leading up to Ironman or any other race for that matter. So far so good.
Side note, i'm not longer getting heartburn and i feel more energized than normal. ok.. thats all..
