I don't get the problem.

The only thing you can get from meat that you can't get from the things I listed is high cholesterol and an upset stomach. (I am not vegan or vegetarian, but I have been eating primarily fish (organic chicken here and there, but mostly just salmon) and I haven't eaten red meat in about 7 or 8 months, and I forgot (yea I know, dumb) and bought a fast food burger that made me so sick I vomited all over my Dr.'s office when I went for my Ortho appointment.

He wanted to send me to ER I threw up so much. I told him it was just my system not being used to the beef (and grease in the fries) and I had made a mistake in eating it so he let me go, but yea. Meat ****s you up.

As long as you eat plenty of protein from other sources I don't see the big deal. Are you underweight, though? My sister is underweight and eats like a bird bc its so hard to find food that isn't processed or stuffed with chemicals.

I have to trick her by mixing peanut butter and liquid egg into her fruit smoothies to get extra protein into her.
Thanks for this!
