Not cut out to be a veggie...

So y'all know how yesterday was vegetarian day for Joanne. Here's what I've learned. I can't be a vegetarian. I spent most of yesterday STARVING. I know that there are other sources of protein besides meat and I truthfully wasn't consuming them. My goal was mostly 'not eat meat' not 'not eat meat and replace the missing meat with something more substantial.' For breakfast I had 2 pieces of GF orange poppyseed loaf. It was delish but by 10:30 I was STARVING. I ate my lunch at 12 which was GF pasta with spaghetti sauce. I also had some pop corn. By 4:30 when I left work what was I?... STARVING. So I went home and had dinner of cheese pizza and a GF cupcake. This morning when I woke up... STARVING. :) So I just ate bacon and sausage and hashbrowns and I'm feeling decidedly better. I know if I had incorporated beans or peanut butter or cheese into my regime I would've done better. I can't have many of the meat free "meat" products because they tend to use wheat gluten as a binder to hold whatever it is made from together. I am unwilling to eat beans because in a past volunteering gig I spent 20 + minutes on my hands and knees on the floor of a gym scraping smashed beans off the floor. Even the smell makes me want to gag. Peanut butter I can do. :) So 5 more veggie days in the next 5 and a half weeks. I'll try to better next time. :)
