Year 3, Day 101: Could it be the vitamins?

Have not been feeling 100% lately, and it could be a number of things, but I don't know what. I suspect it had something to do with switching vitamins, so today I got a new kind from Whole Foods, natch, instead of the Centrum brand. Before I was taking the One-a-Day brand which I liked, and wasn't that hard to take. While I can't point to feeling any better, it certainly didn't hurt. But the Centrum brand I bought was not 'for men', is hard to swallow and has resulted in less-than-great feelings and being hungrier and eating more. Again, there is a lot that could be causing that but for now I'm switching. I'll check in again in a few weeks and see if it makes a difference.

Breakfast
1.5 Banana Bran Muffins
Coffee

Snack
2 oz 50% Jalapeno Cheddar
1/2 Microwave Popcorn
.5 oz Boston Lite Popcorn

Lunch;
Cabbage, Romaine, Feta, Tuna

Dinner:
Pecan-Encrusted Trout
Asparagus

Dessert
Two bites of Magnolia's Chocolate Sherbet Pop
About 25 Chocolate Chips
About 15 Banana Chips

Can't wait for the gym. After collecting a lot of black bananas I found a recipe that sounded good, and was good- it was from a Breakfast book I had collected years ago. Ruby and I made them before breakfast this morning. The muffins were perfect (if a tiny bit unsweet) but I really enjoyed them, and so did Ruby, Emily and less so, Magnolia. After I had eaten most of one muffin I was considering what I would eat for breakfast, when I realized- @(#*&A that that muffin WAS my breakfast. You can't eat a banana muffin and then eat some other 500 calorie thing. I did eat the rest of Ruby's left over, which I estimated at about half .

Year 3, Day 96: 100 Days of Vitamins

If it's Monday, it's must be NUT DAY. Again, I hit the tamari almonds hard. Really, the only way to eat them responsibly is not buy them at all. I think I have proven beyond a doubt that I am a nutaholic. Since no one will stop me, it will ultimately be my responsibility to stop myself. Now if only Russo's would stop selling them...

Breakfast
Kashi Go Lean!
Heritage Flakes
Strawberries
Blueberries
Banana
Unsweetened Soy Milk
Coffee

Lunch: Russo's ($5.74)
Romaine, red pepper, red onion, feta
chicken, broccoli, mushrooms
balsamic vinegar, pepperocini

Snack
4 beef jerky
50 Tamari Almonds
1 Cameo Apple

Dinner
Turkey Crumble
with Cabbage Wraps
Cabbage Salad
Cauliflower

So today I have been taking a multi-vitamin for 100 days. I really can't point to feeling any better. I can't really point to being any less under the weather. Less tired? No. When I started this diet, getting rid of the white stuff made me feel so great. Almost immediately I felt I had more energy. I was less tired, didn't crash, stopped getting headaches. Maybe I am so nearly health-optimized that I can't see a tangible difference? Maybe vitamins are a scam? Everyone I know that takes vitamins does so with a shrug—like 'it's not doing me any harm.' I guess I am joinging them for that ride.
