Second Try, Day Three
Well I am happy to report that I have now had three successful days returning to veganism!
Very exciting indeed. I can feel my energy level/alertness level increasing daily and my level of fatigue/tiredness going away. Even foggy brain syndrom seems to slip away when I eat primarily vegetables!
There was a couple of important steps that I needed to take to get here. I kept up with my steamed vegetable breakfast - I love that. Then on the weekend I made a bean stew for the week - which fills me up at lunch time. I now carry my Garcinia Cambogia with me and pop one if I need to ward of hunger pangs. While at Zehrs on the weekend, I bought single servings of a few meats for Arthur, one for each night of the week - so that keeps him happy so that he doesnt start talking about pizza. Finally, I created a veggie ground round "hash" that I am able to quickly heat up at night time. I've been eating that with a big salad that has avocado and lots of greens on it. That has actually kept me full until it is time for bed. The last piece of the equation was that I put some baby carrots and chopped celery into a container - and as soon as I get home from work - I put that into a bowl and just snack on it as I'm cooking, or if I do get hungry at night time.
It seem to be working so far!
My goal is to be back down to where I was this spring - and to get there by Christmas.
My real goal is to get into our Tshirts for Halifax. I've found some awesome bamboo tshirts
and I don't want to have to buy myself something different - that would be disappointing!
So - wish me luck!
