Vegan Day 3 🌱
So far so good, I’m not missing meat and dairy as much as I thought I would be.
I’ve done one upper body workout where I felt slightly more energised than I normally do. I’m training legs later which will really show if my training is benefiting from a plant based diet
I’ve also played a half hour 6-a-side football match where I felt like I could just keep running without getting very tired. This was good because I’ve feeling very sluggish when playing football recently. I even managed to score 5 goals, which for anyone who knows me it’s pretty mad for me to do that whoever I’m playing against 😂
The only thing I have struggled with is hitting my protein targets but I’ve still been getting over 100 grams each day which isn’t too bad. I’m aiming get cooking more in order to organise myself so that I can ensure I’m hitting my protein targets each day.
Pictured are 2 of the dinners I’ve had:
🌱Roast potatoes, broccoli, carrots, swede and sprouts!
I would never eat this many vegetables before but I actually really enjoyed and managed to eat the whole lot
🌱tofu stir fry
Very tasty. I wasn’t a fan of tofu on its own but when cooked with some nice spices and veg it’s tasted lovely. Tofu is also high in protein which is very helpful!
