Question:
I am a little worried about my health. My very knowledgeable boss at work said she likes the idea of me going vegetarian and/or vegan, but that I need to be safe about it because her very intelligent sister did just what I did and went online and “researched” all about vegetarianism and thought she was switching over the right way. But she ate how she thought she was supposed to and thought she was getting enough substitutions for the protein, etc. but apparently she wasn’t and ended up in the hospital.
Now, I’ve been drastically cutting down on meat for the last month or so, and by the time my fiance and I move out of his Mom’s we want to be completely vegetarian. So far I feel fine, except for the last couple days I’ve had a sore throat and felt slightly weak for the past day. I’ve already had a bad cold a little over a month ago, so I couldn’t believe I would be getting yet another one! You don’t think this would have anything to do with my diet would it? Thank you.
I realize it’s a personal choice and it’s one I wanted to make! She was actually supporting me by telling me she thought it was a good idea to start one!
