How do you get on? What foods do you eat for protein etc?

everything that dosn't have meat.

A girl I used to talk to is a vegetarian and she eats certain vitamins along with the usual foods.

I was a vegetarian for almost 6 years until just this last November. I ate a lot of beans, rice, some tofu, nuts, and seeds. My demeanor has certainly changes since i started eating meat again, very aggressive and short tempered. I think I need to go back veggie!

I was vegan for 10 years, and I've been an ordinary vegetarian (I eat dairy products now) for about 4 years now.

I had a bunch of fights as a vegan, of which I won the majority, so that certainly tells you it's possible. The reason I started eating dairy products, was the availability (or lack therof) of vegan proteins in this country. It was just too much of a hassle in my everyday life. It's a lot easier in the US and the UK though, where vegan products are abundant.

To be honest, I've actually considered trying out grass fed beef, just to see what kind of a difference it would make, if any.

When I was vegan, I mostly read that side of the story: How meat is bad for you, and soy is the ultimate health food, etc. Since then I've been reading a lot of "regular" nutrition science, and it seems soy is not really good for you at all. So I wouldn't recommend relying on that for protein...

It's a strange world.... I NEVER thought I would tell somebody to maybe just keep eating meat... But you better think twice about why you'd want to be a vegetarian. Health might not be the best reason...

They say too much of anything is bad for you.

I heard soy can cause some kind of cancer (prob if you eat tonnes of it)

But too much red meat is bad aswell (toxins)

So is it a health thing why you were a vegan and are now a vegetarian, or a moral thing

Well, I bought into the whole package, so to speak... It's definitely only the moral thing that has kept me from going back, the past few years.

Soy raises estrogen. Saturataed fats in meats raise testosterome. Are you a man or woman?

If you're going veggie, limit your soy. Protein is easy to come by without meat; cheese, milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, nuts, protein bars, protein powders, eggs, beans, and peanut butter. Why would you want to be a vegetarian anyways?

I was really just interested to see who was vegetarian and how they get along.

I have considered it though.

Hehe, I know many vegans and vegetarians who are hard asses. Being vegan takes a lot of discipline, and if you think about it, sacrificing your comfortable way of living for something you believe in, be it right or wrong, is a pretty hard thing to do. I think the boxers I train can attest to the fact that I run a tight ship ;)

Actually thats a good point man never thought of it like that! Yeah it would take strength! Good for you man.

Yeah I just ment like you know some kind of "lmao I just ate 3 cows, pwn" kind of ****. Well not that excessive.

I dont know! lol

Beans and corn supply all the protein you need......

thats all part of bein a MAN!!! Vegetarians are gay. How dare a man do something that gay. I can see a girl doing it, but a guy??? **** that like the saying goes "For every animal you dont eat, Im going to eat three."


I wish I could go out and tackle a damn deer barehanded and kill it and eat it like the lions do.

Unfortuantely almost anything you eat that you yourself haven't grown is bad for you....Everythings loaded with Growth Horomones, Artificial Flavoring, etc etc

Also there is such a thing as bad Protein....

An Example of bad food is-
Teens in the US tend to begin puberty at around 11 (even as early as 9), While natrually and in tribal countries where they only eat natrual things Puberty tends to start around 13 or 14....This is due in part to the milk you drink. Cow's only give milk when they have calves, so they are in turn stuffed with Growth Hormones (in part to make them meatier for slaughter) and other chemicals to make it so they constantly give milk....

Thats just one thing too...But I accept it and eat it...

totally agree! And check this out, "humans" are the only ones that drink milk as adults! Cats drink milk, sure, they're hungry. But no other animal drinks milk as an adult.

Vegetarian = American Indian word meaning "lousy hunter."

:thinking: Barehanded? I'll have to try that sometime.

I'm gonna have to fight you now, Fraidy...

I was a vegetarian yesterday between lunch a dinner and thats as long as it lasted...

Yeah thats def true...i started shaving in grade 6. The good thing about it is i've been able to buy alcohal since grade 11

Every vegeterian I have met has been ****ed up.

My back deck sports a 13-cubic foot freezer which is full of organic meat (venison, fish, crab, and rabbit) and frozen organic fruit (peaches, blackberries, and raspberries) for most of the year. My wife's father caught a 170-lb. halibut in Alaska a couple of years back, and we had halibut 2-3 times a week for a solid year. A hunting license, a sure eye, and a barbecue grill makes a great combination. As does a bucket and a blackberry field.

Deer season in 3 weeks. . . freezer's empty right now. . . . :banana:
