ive decided to become a vegetarian, not because i want to lose weight or anything, but im just not very fond of meat, especially red meat, it just makes me feel really heavy and sluggish afterwards, but i love chicken so thats gonna be hard. my question is, i wanna do this the right way and cut off meat completley, but i wanna continue eating fish. I LOVE SUSHI. so what are good dinner and lunch ideas for my new diet? im getting kinda sick of pasta and mashed potatoes for dinner and tuna salads for lunch. i need a change and i refuse to give in to the meat!

Don't they know what they are missing? I'll tell you what they're missing: steak, turkey, fried chicken, pork chops, bacon, hamburgers, tacos, hot dogs, and sooooo much more.
Sucks for youuuuu.

My husband and I are just starting to go vegan, ill admit its been really difficult, ive struggled more than him but we are trying our best to eat better. My husband is a picky eater so I have been having a difficult time thinking of meals and stuff for us so we (at least I) have been pretty hungry. My husband could eat fruit and veggies for a meal, but me on the other hand wouldnt be filled up by that. We want to try new things but are turned off by alot...like tofu and that kind of stuff we dont like, I could prolly stomach beans and stuff (like beans and rice or beans, tomatoe, lettuce rolled in a tortilla shell) but my husband doesnt like beans and stuff, so if anyone can help me with some ideas or recipes (that arent too wierd or diffcult to make) we would grealty appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I get so irritated whenever I hear people claim that some vegetarians eat seafood and poultry! Seafood and poultry are flesh! Therefore, the people who eat them are NOT vegetarians! In fact, the word "vegetarian" was coined by the people who started the Vegetarian Society in England in the 1840s to describe people who abstain from eating flesh.

I am a generally healthy white 41-year-old female with a pretty poor diet due to trying to keep my weight down. I do know that I suffer from anemia, but iron pills and vitamins don't seem to be the best way to raise my hemoglobin. I would rather do it by eating a healthy diet.

My boyfriend is a healthy white 56-year-old male who had bladder cancer a couple of years ago, but has since recovered. He does smoke, but is currently trying to quit. His diet is fairly good, but could be better.

Anyway, my question is this..............

We are both very interested in a healthy diet and we would like to make whatever changes are needed to bring about optimum health. What kind of diet do we consider? Where can I find additional information on the diet, like recipes, shopping lists, etc..?

I would very much like to cut down on my consumption of red meat. I'm interested in adding more fish to my diet, but my boyfriend and I are concerned about the levels of heavy metals in fish. How can I minimize the incidence of heavy metal in the fish that I buy? What should I do to make sure that the fish I eat will be good for me? Are there specific places in the world from where the fish is more "pure" than other places? What types of fish are usually affected most by heavy metals in the environment? Is there a chart or graph somewhere online that I could look up?

Which vegetables (besides soy) are a good source of protein without being combined (ie: combining grains and legumes makes a complete vegetarian protein)? I am an Orthodox Christian and need to find protein-rich foods I can eat during lent.

I know that some meat eaters complain that vegetarians try to force their lifestyle on them, but I've actually found the reverse to be true. If anything, I've often automatically drawn criticism and asinine remarks whenever I've mentioned the fact that I'm a vegetarian. Why is that? Why do other people care what we eat? For some reason, I don't think that I would have gotten the same responses if I had also told these people that I don't eat tomatoes or mayonnaise, either.

Do we use the meat for eating and use the skin from the same cow to make leather or are special cows bred for their skins? Am trying to get my head round whether leather is as bad as fur and don't know the answers.

The cashier at McDonalds who rang up my bacon, egg and cheese biscuit this morning was wearing a PETA 'No Fur' button on her shirt. I asked her about it because I don't wear fur coats and I was just curious. She said "They are not for people who eat meat...pause...people who care."

I was shocked as all get out when she said that. I thought to myself, does it mean I don't care because I eat meat? Was that right for her to say that?

I am just curious as to what the general opinion is on this matter. Is it true that if you eat meat that you don't care? Does it make you a bad person?

Grass contains protein and carbs, and people drink wheatgrass, so... it seems like it should work.

Hey is there any teen vegans out there. Im 13 yrs old and i turned a vegan last septemeber after three yrs of being a vegetarian. The reasons i did it is that I love Animals and hate to see them suffer (peta.org showed me just how bad it is) I like to look after the environment.(As you should know the damages that livestock has on the environment) And i just cant stand eating anything that comes from an animals let alone actually eating THE animal! Alot of people say that we shouldnt be Vegans for reasons like it'll stump our growth we'll get sick etc, but i am a very healthy and happy Vegan!
I wanna say thanks for helping the world. :D

I always feel so much better after I eat homegrown and home made food...
It feels like a spiritual recovery from all the garbage you get everywhere else...

Anyone else experience this?

Well... I am not a full-fledged vegitarian. I don't think it is right to eat animals that are from farms --animals who never get to really experience life. I have no problem with the food chain and eating wild animals, however.

But, where the hell can I get wild animals? I'm not going to go out and kill animals myself. Are there stores that sell animals killed in the wild?

What about fish? Are most fish farmed? How do I know if a fish is from the wild or from a fish farm?

Thanks?
