What has been your experience with going vegetarian or vegan?!
Answers: do you feel different, look different, act different, etc??
Well, my skin looks wonderful. I was very fatigued at first, but I realized I wasn't getting enough iron. My diet was not balanced at first, so I just had to incorporate more iron rich foods. My nails are stronger, hair is shinier, and since I realized I needed more iron, I have more stamina.
I notice that I am calmer. I used to get upset easily, but I'm calmer now.
I only lost about 2 pounds which is good for me, because I didn't want to lose any weight.
This might be gross, but I used to have IBS. After about a week of my diet change, IBS is long gone.
Uhh, I noticed I got really skinny (didn't like that). Uhh, I started do feel like really down and gloomy (my friends told me that). I didn't like it, but hey give it a try, at least then you cant say you didn't try!!
i was always tired and my friends said i was always more grumpy
and i love steak to much
Well, I managed to be a vegatarian in secret for 2 days, but my parents strongly disapproved and foreced me to stop. But in those two days, I expected to feel something, like i was different, but i wasnt. i just wasnt a meat eater thats all.
I have never felt better--physically and spiritually.
Day 1 to day 3, seemed to have more energy.
Day 4-5, severe headaches, low energy, (Detox)
Almost gave in...
Day 6+ More energy, got rid of love handles and gut + MUCH less irritable.
Feeling much better, happier, and enjoy food much more. I have never looked back. Life is way more enjoyable now.
I feel alot better now..i dont feel guilty or sleepy..i read some articals that actually said that vegetarian diets can make u feel like u got alots of energy !
Im glad i made the change it was well worth it!
I lost a couple of pounds and my skin cleared up. I stopped having the chronic tummy aches that had plagued me for years, and had way more energy. The best part is that I haven't been sick since becoming vegan 2 years ago! I used to get 1 bad flu and 2 or 3 other colds per year, but now nothing. I look and feel better than I ever have. You'd be surprised what good nutrition can do for your body.
I am going on my third month now and I love it! I feel good physically... I lost about 5 pounds so far and I just feel healthier. I also feel really good about it, knowing that my little bit helps. I'm really amazed because my husband and his whole family recently got sick with a cold and I haven't even sneezed! Usually I would've been the first one to get sick! :)
I feel much better, I look healthier, my asthma went away, my IBS went away, basically my old entire sickly self went away... this was after I went vegan though I had no real health benefits with just lacto-ovo, but 8 years ago when i went vegan my life changed way for the better :)
