Heavy Price

What a difference a meal makes - all week I have eater fairly close to the 80/10/10 ideal and have felt light, energetic, strong and fast. I had a great meal at Great Sage (vegan resurant) and feel heavy,sluggish, weak and slow. Plant based alone isn't enough, vegan isn't enough - we have to be mindul of what we put in our bodies. Food ladened with oil, soduim and fats still take a heavy toll on the body - even though they're plant derived. Fruit, greens and nuts and seeds (in small quanities)give one an entierely different feeling after a meal and for hours and days afterwards. I know I will pay a price for my meal tonight and it will be with the performance of my run tomorrow. It was worth it for the company - but besides that - I'll stick with my fruit and greens.

Peace,
Eric
