I am not getting enough protein. I can feel it in my legs. I have been so very cautious to run carefully, slowly and I think I'm successfully healing whatever was happening in my quad. But my legs (and hips) feel weak. I think it's the lack of meat. I didn't mean to start going meatless. But once I gave up chocolate and sugar, I felt like I might as well give up everything....I was raised for a lot of years vegetarian (my step mother was 7th Day-Adventist), but I whole-heartedly embraced my inner carnivore somewhere around 21. Changing my diet last month, made me revert to my upbringing (when I had a 97 pound woman in charge of trying to feed me). So Marion, you will be proud of me, today I will be eating a lot of talapia with peach salsa for lunch an a t-bone steak with fried corn & roasted red pepper relish for dinner. BTW, I hereby endorse the PROVO FARMER's MARKET (held every Saturday at Pioneer Park on 500 W & Center). I bought a box of peaches, tomatoes, corn, beet greens and signed a petition to keep Italian nuclear waste out of Utah. So it's nuclear free peach cobbler for everyone! Come on by. |
