So I'm now on day three of a vegetarian diet (can't quit chocolate milk), is it normal to be like withdrawing from meat.. I don't feel so hot I have been taking b12 but I just feel kinda sluggish and constantly hungry.. I know it will get easier as I'm not good and knowing what would fill me up and what wouldn't but I've been supplementing with a protein shake made of whey I don't think it's 100% vegan, not sure.
any Input on what you felt during the switch would be greatly appreciated. I have have thus idea that a piece of bacon would make me feel better (Pavlov)
try chocolate almond milk? though unsweetened vanilla almond is better
at the moment youre flushing out all the toxins from processed foods so youll worse before better
Whey is milk so no its not vegan.
Be careful READ EVER fucking package and EVERY ingredient list they like to hide animal products in different nmaes like
(HINT there is usually a V on the package if its vegan )

heres the thing the list is long and scary and you will fuck up gaunteed. i had the last and STILL the first month bought veggie cheese that technically had milk in it
heres some products that will help you EASE into it
Veganiase ...vegan mayo stir it for like ever before you eat it
Tempeh Maple smoked tempeh it isnt bacon, doesnt even come close but you can put it on things like sanwiches, beside pancakes kinda thing
Diaya Cheese (ONLY MOZZARELLA FLAVOUR) It will take some getting used to but out of any vegan cheese ive tried this is the ONLY decent one, add it to whatever dont eat it out the package
I never felt crappy if anything i felt better but its all psychological too , youll probably feel better in a week
If youre only going to be a vegetarian i dont even think you need to take b12.
Im vegan and dont , b12 is very essential to the human make up however you need VERY little of it, if you buy like a almond milk it has fortified b12 in it and youll get enough b12 from 2 cups
As kinetic said be prepared to have to use the bathroom....a LOT
depending on your current veggie intake you may be finding vegans have a lot of fiber intake and or if you consume meat youre gunna have a bad time
