However. 7 days into the hardcore vegan stuff and I'm slightly losing my shit over not being able to have pizza for dinner after a long day at work, or sink into the sofa with a bar of Cadburys. Sob. However, despite being surrounded by biscuits, muffins, chocolate and cheese again today on Blue Dolphin, I managed to maintain my composure and stick to my vegan regime:
Breakfast - small bowls of oats, banana
Morning snack - half a hummus & cucumber sandwich with wholegrain bread, rice cake
Lunch - few spoonfuls of bean salad, a few pieces of fruit, small tub of cashews/walnuts/blueberries/cherry tomatoes
Afternoon snack - rest of my sandwich
Dinner - 2 whole wheat wraps with half a veggie burger, avocado and bbq sauce
Activity - walked to and from work. I arrived and left in the dark so couldn't get out to exercise, although I was knackered from being on my feet for 12 hours anyway.
I'm looking at this along with my other entries wondering whether this is too much food for the day? I'm just eating when I'm hungry? I really don't want to get into calorie counting - better things to do - and I don't want to deprive myself by not eating when my stomach bleats at me, especially when I'm chowing down on healthy yums anyway. Will see whether I notice any difference in a couple more weeks (in terms of weight, energy levels, overall wellbeing) and then make adjustments accordingly...
