favaks 0 #52 March 21, 2002 I was a veggie before I started skydiving for moral reasons--didn't eat meat period. But then, one plunge from 13k and I was corrupted. DAMN!favaks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Topcat 0 #53 March 21, 2002 I have a brother who is a vegan and I admire that he has the courage of his convictions but he is way too skinny.Anybody out there try the Zone diet? I use an extremely modified version.I have been helping my husband shed some pounds; I've been losing some too. We don't eat that much red meat because of the high ratio of calories/ounces. I also try to make sure we get most of our carbs from fruits and veggies instead of pasta, rice, potatoes, etc (that's the Zone thing).It's working, I have lost 15 pounds since January and would have lost more if it wasn't for my attraction to beer. The bitch of it is I have to wear weights to skydive again.It's tough to find a diet that works and doesn't wreck your health. But I highly recommend the 'eat less / excersise more' diet. -Sandy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #57 March 21, 2002 Since we're talking about diets and such, last summer my Dad joined weight watchers. He taught me how to follow the plan and I put it into practice. From mid August to January I managed to lose 37lbs. I am now at a very healthy weight for my height. 5'7", 155lbs. Anyway, this did not happen by starving myself, just by learning to be aware of what I ate. I was forced to decrease the red meats (not eliminate them) and eat more veggies and fruit. I also reduced alot of fat intake but once again did not eliminate it completely. I really believe this program is the most effective weight management program out there and it is very healthy. This is just my 2 cents on this topic.BTW, my Dad lost 60lbs, is at his goal weight, walks 1/2 hour on the treadmill everyday and turns 70 this Sunday! He rocks!Skydivers...they're just plain cool!Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,058 #58 March 21, 2002 >This ensures a night of agony if I eat any meat. . . Funny, that happened to me too. I didn't intentionally give up red meat, I've just been eating it less and less since college. Chicken and fish are now my two meats.One night we were in St Louis with our two (corporate) pilots, and we went to a steakhouse where it became a point of manly pride as to who ordered the biggest steak. I got some monster steak, ate about half of it, and was up the rest of the night. It made me sick for at least 24 hours. Next time I'll know better.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #65 March 21, 2002 Vegans don't even eat honey!! Honey is an animal product!----------------------------------------------------Q: What's another word for vegetarian?A: Prey!!MUAHAHHAHAHAHA!!--------------------------------------------------------------------------Seriously though, I evolved as an omnivore so I eat as an omnivore. And I've never gone on any weird-ass dietary regimens either, and I'm a lot healthier than my friends who do go in for those things.For awhile my brother was doing some kinda hippy-dippy macrobiotic diet bullshit. His girlfriend at the time got him into it. Evidently he wasn't doing it right b/c it fucked with his immune system: he got frequent colds & then contracted a nasty, prolonged case of shingles!!Fuckin' just eat like a human being, that's what I say.another quote regarding vegyism: When someone asked Oscar Wilde what was his favorite animal, he replied, "Steak!"Speed Racer"Fill your hand, you son-of-a-bitch!"

SpeedRacer 1 #67 March 21, 2002 and another thing...a couple of people on this forum have said ooh, I don't eat meat: too much fat! It causes heart disease!Hey has it occurred to you to look for lean cuts? Lean, high quality top round has less fat then tofu. Anyway, if you don'twanna get heart disease, just use a little moderation & exercise once in awhile, regardless of whether you eat red meat.Some of my ancestors during the 19th and early 20th century lived on farms & used to eat pork as their main protein source. They'd butcher a hog & preserve the pieces in a barrel of salt. They had pork almost every day. They seldom had heart disease & usually lived into their 80's or 90's. In fact I can't think of any ancestors of mine who dies of heart attacks.bottom line: use moderation, eat a balanced diet & get some exercise, and you'll be about as healthy as you can be.Speed Racer"Fill your hand, you son-of-a-bitch!"

jfields 0 #74 March 21, 2002 Nah. The vegetarians will be looking cartoonish. About like Wile E. Coyote after chasing the Roadrunner for about 500 miles. They'll be feverish and crawling on their knees trying to go another foot.Of course, that state will be achieved after just walking across the living room, due to malnutrition. <>Justin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbarnhouse 0 #75 March 21, 2002 Does close count? I will upon rare occassion consume chicken or shellfish. Otherwise it's tufu and veggies, legumes and the like. Guess it must have stemmed from watching Grandpa slaughter my pets......cows, chickens,pigs, and my soft wee bunnies........it was rather amusing watching the chickens run around with their heads cut off....Don't worry I only scored a 7 the serial killer test.....LOLIt only takes a little pixie dust......
