It's funny, when I first started playing around with vegetarianism/veganism, I didn't notice a lot of change going from one way to another or going back to consuming meat. Then, slowly, I started to notice changes. For example, if I were worried about protein or iron or something (or was just being lazy!) and I got a burger from Mickey D's I'd get a terrible stomach ache. When I don't eat enough vegetables I don't hurt but my stomach isn't as happy as it could be. When I eat lots of veggies and fill up on few other things, I feel really good and healthy.
I didn't expect as much change as I've noticed! Also, it took a while to notice it. Now that I have no appetite for meat at all, I'm not tempted to stop by Mickey D's, so that's a moot point. Fortunately, when I'm being lazy or wanting more comfort food than usual, cheesey meals don't upset my stomach, so I can do that once in a while. Also, I found a vitamin that wasn't too expensive, doesn't make me sick, and has B12 in it! Win! Now, on those days when I'm not being as careful or not feeling as healthy, I have a handy helper. :)
