Greater mental clarity? More Spiritually intune? Greater resistance to Aging and Disease? My adventures in the raw food/vegetarian lifestyle and how I am becoming all I was meant to be.

Energy

I feel good today.

This is my 3rd day without meat, eggs, cheese.

I'm wondering what it is about the meat that makes me feel sluggish, tired easily, easily hungry?

Protein poisoning? I never heard of any such thing but it makes me wonder.

Usually around 2pm-3pm I feel like I REALLY need a nap. That was not the case today despite the fact that I exercised for about 45minutes and didn't have my first meal until about 1:30pm; a whole cantaloup I shared with my 15month old.
Also, my thinking DOES feel clearer today. Hard to describe.
I also was going to lump 'fat' into the equation and say that it was my very low intake of fat that was making these occurances but for the past 3 days I have had tortilla chips with salsa and refried beans with salsa - there's a good portion of fat in the fried tortilla chips.

It will be interesting to see how I feel if I can ever get through a 24-48hr period with nothing but fruits and veggies. So far this 'vegetarian' diet I've consumed has me feeling pretty good.
