When I saw the start of your post, I was excited because I have trouble sleeping. But then I remembered my try at going vegetarian. I had too much energy!!! I guess it’s different for everyone…?

I am so glad you mentioned the sleep thing! I’ve been veg for 2 weeks now, and I just mentioned on my blog how ridiculously tired I’ve been at night. I can’t keep my eyes open after 7-8pm. Glad to know it’s not just me, haha. Though I can’t keep going to sleep at 8pm and sleeping for 12 hours. I’m going to have to do some research and add something into my diet (food or vitamin) to help with this lower energy level.

I have been looking for those Bagel Thins, too! Jealous that you found them. And, i have never heard of veggies getting better sleep, but I’d like that side effect as well, please

Marisa, I suspect it’s your body reacting to the loss of all those sugars, processed starches, and the like. Someone else here said veggie doesn’t automatically mean better sleep – that’s true. I have fitful sleeps sometimes, and my husband’s been having insomnia for quite a while.

The thing you’ll probably notice as you replace processed foods with fresh is the way you feel in general. That bloated, too full, sick feeling melts away. You get a little more energy. Your skin looks a little perkier. You don’t ache so much.

It takes some time, but veggie can be a pretty nice switch.

I LOVE bagel thins – they’re awesome. And that salsa looks ridiculous!

I should eat what you are eating. I’ve been having some sleep issues… Plus, your food always looks & sounds so good!

Bagel thins sound good! I’ll have to see if I can find them….

I love those bagel thins! Hard to find here still- I managed to snag a bag at Target last week.

I have been sleeping SO much better (except for last night,lol!) but I figured it was the weight loss in general, not really the vegetarian part. I want to try these bagel thins! I even wandered out of my Whole Foods to a normal grocery store and no luck in NYC

hahah i haven’t heard of vegetarian diets supporting sleep, but i’m guessing the increase in complex carbs in your diet must help!! I know carbs help sleep!!

OOOH those are adorable bagel thins. I have neither seen nor heard of them, but now i can say I saw it HERE first!!
