A neat experiment.

So, in an attempt to improve my diet - I’m taking a month to go vegetarian.  Not vegan - (I’ll kill you if you touch my cheese) - but critter flesh is out until Feb 28.  I’m curious about this on several levels -  I wonder if I’m going to lose weight, and if I do, will it be sustainable?  I’m wondering if my body can keep up with my demanding lifestyle - and I’m wondering if I’ll just freak out and load up on cheeseburgers in a week.

Mostly - I’m wondering if I can have the discipline to stick it out.

Day 2 - I actually feel really, really good.  I felt good yesterday too - I’m focusing on healthy foods (no cheese pizza, please), and I feel very ‘clean’ and surprisingly alert.   I’ve got whey protein, lots of greens, and plenty o’beans ready, so I no longer have concern about protein deprivation.  I also discovered that I like pita and hummus (with buffalo sauce) more than, well, just about anything.

Note - I’m a HUGE carnivore - so this is a bit of a departure for me.  Any tips are greatly appreciated.

    Mushrooms as meat replacement.

    I’ve been planning to do the same “experiment” soon.

    And changing this comment form’s label style font color from white to something visible. =)

    good luck sir

    my apologies - labels are fixed.

    thanks for the tip, I love mushrooms, so that should be easy.
