Trying Vegetarianism for a week or so

[preside]

Find the book "Diet for a small planet" by francis Moore Lape. My wife has been cookin up great veggie meals from that for 22 years. Vegetarian times magazine also has lots of great recipes

I've been a quasi-vegetarian for 3 years now. I still eat chicken and fish, but no red meat and no dairy of any kind. No alcohol or soda of any kind, just water & juice, period. Started working out daily. One thing I can certainly attest to is the quality of life is so much better. Like night and day.

Although not eating related, I also stopped watching tv at the same time. Food for the mind/spirit is also vital for overall health. Started playing bass at the same time too! Looking back I can say they've all been great choices! Onwards and forwards!

Good for you! TV although I dont watch allot would be hard to walk away from I must admit.

Bringing some bass content to the thread, a lot of people don't know that if you play "Maybe I'm Amazed" backward, you'll hear a really ripping recipe for lentil soup!
