Vegetarianism

Myztek · 11-10-2005, 06:45 PM

What do you think of it? I was considering trying it, but still keeping eggs/milk etc.. in my diet. I don't know if it's really worth it or not.

What do you guys think about it, and are there any vegetarians here?

**Jodi** · 11-10-2005, 08:18 PM

What are your reasons for wanting to do this?

myCATpowerlifts · 11-10-2005, 08:20 PM

It's against God's rules, but go ahead.

LAM · 11-10-2005, 08:23 PM

don't think I've seen to many lean vegetarians...

TJ Cline · 11-10-2005, 08:36 PM

Humans are omnivores.....why do you feel the need to fight your genetics and evolution??

DOMS · 11-10-2005, 08:36 PM

Humans have cuspids. Carnivores and omnivores have cuspids. You figure the rest out.

Nearly every vegetarian I've seen looked unhealthy.

DOMS · 11-10-2005, 08:37 PM

You've stolen my thunder with mere seconds to spare you Post Whore.

Hahah but they'll swear to it that they are gonna live longer.

Sorry I couldn't imagine not eating meat, poultry, fish, and seafood!

If your blood type is A, try vegetarianism, but don't neglect balance, including protein.

no data to support blood type diets...

Vegatarians are sick and have gray skin!!!!

Did you know that the only reason homosapiens evolved enough higher brain function to learn to use simple tools and to become food-chain topping bipedal landbourne migrant hunters instead of treetop scavengers, is because the intense heat generated by working brain tissue can only be feuled by a dense source of....

Animal Protein!!

I need to go eat some more animal protein so I can understand all those big words

Bill Pearl was a vegetarian (become one in his late 30's) so he alreay had a solid foundation built. using gear also greatly enhances protein utilization. i've never seen a big, natural vegetarian body builder.

Bill Pearl has a great classic physique. I'd say he looks perfect in that picture.

Only a thousand calories a day hu?? Veggies and carbs yuck?? Someone isn't doing there homework! I am a Vegan and I surely do not look gray and ugly! lol I can tell you this...since I have been eating this way I have not had one cold, or been sick at all. I have never felt better or had more energy. You get tons of protein from other sources than meats and dairy. Read, T Colin Cambell's book "The China Study" very informative and you really can't argue with someone who has proven his theories with a 100:0 ratio. It's a healthy choice and I don't think people should knock it so badly with out clear evidence that consuming meat or dairy is a must. JMO

soxmuscle · 11-11-2005, 03:24 PM

i'm knocking it because i have no interest in ever doing that. i can deal with a little sniffle once every winter if it means achieving my goals at a speedier rate.

soxmuscle · 11-11-2005, 03:25 PM

one more note. judging by your pictures it's hard to imagine you eat much more than a thousand calories per day.

Myztek · 11-11-2005, 04:31 PM

I really don't want to be a vegetarian >_>, I don't think I could go without chicken. Seems like it would cause too many inconveniences. I think cutting out carbonated/caffeinated drinks is good enough. (been doing that for 2 years)

Tropicalgirlxx · 11-11-2005, 04:49 PM

Why does every thing in life have to be at a "speedier" rate?? That's the problem with the world. Slow down! Good things come to those who wait

Patience is a virtue. I eat a lot of food and I am happy with the way my body is. I weigh 110 and can eat vegan food all day long! Besides that I have always taken care of myself, never thought "fat" was a desireable thing

I have never drank caffeinated drinks so I guess that was a bonus for me. I think eating vegetables, pastas, rice, cereals, soy milk, beans, fruits, deserts (dairy free), legumes, almond butter... I guess I could go on and on but it's all good for you and pretty tasty. No inconvienience at all!

I haven't been sick in over 2 years since I started eating healthier but I eat a lot of protein. I eat around 250 total protein (p. from all sources) or about 210 from meats, eggs, whey, milk, cottage cheese. I don't think their is a direct correlation from protein or meat. I used to get sick a lot too, about 3-4 times a year.

pakkya · 11-12-2005, 04:47 PM

Add a LOT of cottage cheese to that list ...

Problem with vegan food is less natural sources with a healthy ratio of PCF... cutting's tough though on a vegan diet ... but nothing wrong with it if u can eat a lot of eggs and cottage cheese

I got a ques...do milk and eggs ve a superior biological value than any non-vegetarian food?
