Digestion issue in phase 2
Good evening,
I am finishing up my first week in phase 2 tomorrow. Ever since I started last wednesday, I have been having really bad stomach issues. Nausea, heartburn, feeling of being too full, loss of appetite, bloating, and other things like that.
Prior to IP, I was not a true vegetarian because I ate chicken (only) a couple of times per week. No other meat, no fish, very few eggs. The thing is, could these 2 meals of meat, which for me are only chicken since I do not like anything else, be the cause of all this discomfort? Has anyone else experienced this kind of issue when suddenly increasing meat like that in phase 2? I really don't know how I will make it through the next 2 weeks having to eat that twice a day. I try to have tofu as much as I can, but apparently it's not recommended to do IP on tofu only, so I have 3-4 meals of it per week.
Does anyone have any tips or experience to share? About digesting meat, or whatever could be causing this. Anything would be well appreciated. Thank you!
