Vegan

[Dubz]

Just depends on where your getting your protein from that's my main issue with vegan..ism.

Wait vegan or vegetarian?

Amino acid supps and shakes?

That would just end up being really expensive.

My other half is a veggie I'm wholeheartedly a meat eater.

My advice would be try the veggie route first. IF you can do no meat, no meat products etc etc for at least 6 moths then go vegan. Everything you currently eat WILL change nothing you eat now I doubt will fit a truly vegan diet.

Good luck tho

God I've become great at cooking veggie meals since Carrie is a freak. I mean veggie. If she tried to make me give up bacon I think I would cry!

She also gets red top milk which IMO is just as useful as water on my breakfast. So I make sure she gets at least green for me.

Vegan is not easy to do, and I can't see how some people keep it up.

If you do though, good luck!

I couldn't give up my steaks for anything... It's something I always eat!

Who you calling a freak maggi...little ****! Haha

Good luck mate, it's not easy being vegan but hopefully you'll get on ok with it.
I don't struggle to be a veggie at all, it's something I love and that I guess I'm proud of. Even though the better half eats meat I would never have a go at him over it. Everyone has their own reasons to be like this.

Let us know how you get on.

Dont you think there are other kinds of protein powers you can get protein derived from peas, rice and eggs.

 

[Dubz]

Pea based protein is meant to be a lot lighter on the stomach than whey.

Have fun if you find your losing some energy as some people do, try googling 'leangains' and use the methods on there to boost your energy

Good luck for you. I often cook veggie meals, but there's no way I'd go even veggie full time. I like meat too much. mmm might go get a bacon sarnie.

Vegan is a big step if you're going to go strict. You'll end up shopping in all the smaller supermarket sections which will limit your choice somewhat. If you go for a meal out you'll typically be further limited in selection too. Things with no dairy in at all are often much more difficult to come by. I personally feel it's much easier and much more easily varied to eat a non-restricted balanced diet. What are the supposed benefits you've been reading of?

I have Crohn, I need my meat.

If I'd go veggie only, I'd break my toilet.

Kinda like this movie:

Is this being driven by ideology, or dietry choice?

....and the lower levels of cholesterol i shall enjoy by not eating meat from animals.....

How can you enjoy a cholesterol level? :?

This should be quite easy to do I think

Your body will start craving for foods that include components that the body needs, so I think you have some hurdles to come. Good luck
