Oh my did I ever have an experience yesterday. Tuesday evening I decided to try my edamame spaghetti from Costco. It's made of edamame! 25g of vegan protein! I say "heck yeah!" Anyways, I'm sure what made it into my bowl was more than the portion size of 2 oz, but I didn't pig out. I just ate until satisfied.
Yesterday, I woke up to stomach pain. I just thought it was cramps due to my moon time, but as I dressed and readied myself for the gym that pain intensified. After handling a lot of business in the bathroom...a lot...I thought I might have food poisoning. But, a small part of my brain said that nothing I ate was bad. So, I checked the nutrition facts on the edamame spaghetti.
One serving is 11g of fiber <---- one serving!!! That's laxative levels in my book. Needless to say, my tummy was upset for hours. Around what should have been lunch, I felt pretty good so I jogged up the steps to my car. Five minutes away from the office my tummy hurt again and this time combined with nausea. It wasn't safe to do anything jarring.
I finally felt recovered enough to go to the gym around 5. Still I only used the recumbent bike for fear of shaking myself up again.
What an experience!
