Today I noticed my burst of energy are directly related to how long it’s been since I’ve eaten. I think I need to start eating more throughout the day. Shockingly enough with all this plant eating, I haven’t had the shlitz yet.

I just remembered that I’m going to miss out on some fine good food provided for free by my company on Wed.  Livestrong…wait…he cheated…ummm…just do it…errr something…

Today was the first day I’ve craved meat.  I drove past Texas Road house after a long day and the waft of searing cow made me drool.  I come home to scrape off tiny bits of left over chicken strips from my daughters meal into the garbage and think about snacking on one real quick.  But I have to remind myself of the greater cause of why I’m doing this.  Wait…why am I doing this?  Dah well…if nothing else I’m a case study…for something…

Typically a cold for me drags out for weeks…I mostly recovered from this one within a few days. Maybe the vegan eating, maybe a weak cold…who knows.  However a real impact I’ve noticed is that after lunch is not nearly as a drag as it had been with non-vegan meals. I’m able to more easily stay alert after lunch instead of feeling like I need to hibernate.

Low energy today.  Mostly unrelated to the vegan eating since I’ve been under the weather so my energy is already low with my eating habits being slightly off.   Otherwise I haven’t noticed anything crazy except an excess of gas (Ry cracks up and blames mom whenever someone lets it rip…I don’t know where she picked that idea up)…and with that, what I ate today:
