So I'm learning the hard way that as I'm transforming my diet, I cannot slip! The last couple of days, I have had a little bit more sugary things than I should have and less greens than normal. At the Farmer's Market in San Rafael, I started to feel light-headed and almost passed out. And at lunch with Ryan and Lorelai, I got a cramp in my chest. Both are not a good sign. So this afternoon, I had a smoothie with GreenFood Powder and for dinner I had Kale & Bean Soup with Chickpea Flatbread. I found out today that Chickpeas have the most protein and Iron in them and can help with Anemia. I don't think I am full-blown anemic, but my body might be telling me that I'm getting close. So I'll be making sure to eat a lot more greens and fruit and I plan on making an appt with my doc for next week and getting A LOT of blood work! I really need to watch my levels so that my body doesn't freak out too much to the point where I injure myself. If I had passed out at the Farmer's Market today with Lorelai climbing in the car, that would have been ugly! Not something I want to deal with. So I'm watching things a little more closely from now on.
Other than this, nothing very exciting to report. I'm staying Vegan for the full 28 days, no matter what I encounter! I'm doing too good to break apart now!
