I'm making a fresh attempt at giving up red meat this year. Was off it from April till August, till had to go to Ireland at a few hours notice for a funeral. Being offered food and hospitality by family, your just going to eat it and be grateful- there went the read meat fast!! Putting my dry days into every week, started on this before Xmas. Have stopped drinking at home entirely, this was my big problem in lockdowns. Do love my real ale in a proper pub, can't give that up- the pubs have suffered enough😄 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would eat more fish. So I miss that more, don't really miss meat at all. Giving up fresh dairy I found harder, especially cheese, bloody love that, but one of the benefits of giving up meat and dairy is it's far easier to keep weight down. Vegan diet is so low in fat and sugar, plus good for the heart, cholesterol, diabetes etc.. It's good that you are making some effort towards cutting out animal products, good for both ethical and environmental benefits,along with the obvious health ones. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasseye Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 My typical brekkie looking ahead.... Greek yogurt, followed by some soft boiled eggs. Thankfully I like all of the stuff I will be eating on this diet. Once I get this current pain situation under control I will get the workouts into gear. I should be able to keep that lard off fairly well following that. Thing about dieting is if you approach it the right way it becomes the new "normal". Keeping booze (and sugar) intake down is the key though, always will be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not much else other than castles and of course family. But a small price to pay for my life here in Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you not still eating fish mate? Got to be a big healthy addition to any diet methinks. I Don't eat much fish or any shellfish, so take a fish oil supplement every day.

I Don't eat much fish or any shellfish, so take a fish oil supplement every day. Don't eat any animal products anymore that were alive once. Only dairy is milk what comes in chocolates and biscuits mainly, with the odd ice cream or pizza very occasionally. And they are just by products from animals. Don't eat eggs as they were alive. Only drink plant based milk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
