I've done quite a few board searches and have seen posts where the person was a vegetarian for X number of years and, lo and behold, still ended up with a CRC Dx. Because of this, I felt justified in continuing with my 'normal' way of healthy eating - basically all things in moderation. Nothing restrictive, nothing excessive.
Yesterday I was reading up on Nutritionfacts.org and watched a few videos by Dr. Berger, who wrote "How Not To Die." Has anyone read that book? If so, thoughts? Criticisms? I feel like I've been all over the map since my recent 'upstaging' from 3 to 4. I'm strongly considering giving vegetarianism a try and am ashamed to admit that after just 2 days I feel supremely limited, deprived, and hungry. I'm wondering if it's worth the effort? My workout yesterday was painfully difficult - I had no energy thanks to a super low calorie intake throughout the day. (Not TRYING to limit calories - it just happened as a byproduct of not eating things that I "shouldn't.")
I find myself back to where I was after my initial Dx: scared to eat just about anything for fear it's going to do me in even faster. Any thoughts on this?
