rbesser Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I am on day 14 of my whole 30. The first week went well and I haven't been feeling anything on the expected days. But the past few days I have felt disgusting and nauseous. I dont really know what to do because the thought of meat makes me want to throw up but im not going to just eat veggies. I feel gross and sick. I don't know if this is just not good for my body because I have never felt like this when I am a vegetarian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbesser Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 also I love meat I don't have ethical, texture or taste problems I think its great this is just purely based off of how I've been feeling and I've comparing it to how great I have felt before on a vegetarian diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 So part of the problem may be from only eating 2 meals a day/not enough daily, and it sounds like sleep might be a current challenge also? Are there changes you can make when you go to bed, to limit the chances of you oversleeping, and that will enable you to have three template-based meals daily? Also, how much water are you drinking daily? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbesser Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 I was just sleeping later because it was the weekend (and sleeping in is only till 9) but I could believe the not eating enough issue...when I am disenchanted with the food I eat though I just can't getn myself to eat alot. Also my stomach isnt so big so I usually eat small meals and then I'm not hungry until the next one. During the week I wake up at 8 or before but still eat a small breakfast because I just can't forcedown a lot of food. I have been not paying attention to water as much as I usually do so that could be it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Aim for drinking 1/2 an ounce of water per pound of body weight daily. Within an hour after waking, start with at least a mini meal of protein, veg and fat, and work your way up to a bigger meal. Eat around the plate, consuming bites of protein, veg and fat until you are full or can't continue. Save the leftovers for eating at a later meal.
