Think I'm Turning Into A Vegan

[nailit]

Not intentionally, just gone right of eating animal products these last few weeks. Think its something to do with the heat wave that weve had and just wanting to eat fruit, salads and veg. (lots of it). Now Im finding that I cant stand the thought of eating meat/fish and while ive never been a milk drinker I did love my cheese...which Ive only consumed once in 2 weeks. The thing is Ive also noticed increased energy, better sleep (and needing less of it) and certainly no constipation that plagued me due to meds bunging me up.

Ive read many threads on here re: different diets and Ive been doing lots of research on plant based diets, pro and anti. might be just a phase (as I said, due to the recent heat) but must admit that I do feel good eating this way.

Todays eats...
Banana, oats, chia seeds, spinach, almond milk (Smoothie)
Pear
Homemade butternut squash soup with onion and herbs, one piece of bread
Punnet of blueberries
Pack of cashews
Cous cous, mixed veg, mushrooms, sweet n sour sauce
Small pack of olives.

Anything wrong (or right) eating like this in your opinion??
Thanks.

sounds like you are living on one of wendi's parrot perches, nailit....

[Spungle]

No right or wrong, Nailit, you just eat what you want if it makes you feel happy.

Good grief.
Whatever turns you on.

[DTCwordfan]

it's those rosehips, minty, that's what does it......

Nothing wrong certainly providing you're getting all the necessary vitamins, proteins etc. (which your research no doubt will help here).

And as it's improving your health, stick with it.

Good luck

Trying to diet myself.
Much veg.
Sadly went and had ONE pint in pub today, but eight cans after.
No food though!
Oh for will,power?

My son and his bird came home with kebabs last night...I used to love a kebab...and the smell made me feel sick, had to open all the windows to get rid of the smell.

Im not trying to diet tho, just gone right of animal products these last few weeks of heat.

Remember MANY YEARS AGO, after taking LSD, saw food on a plate, and just looked at it thinking, "Oh God, pieces of dead animal!"
Ended up,on bits of bread and cheese for days.
Feeling never left me.

//Perhaps you're pregnant//

[Theland]

Well didn't Adam and Eve live in the Garden of Vegan?

You feel well and enjoying what you're eating, that's all that matters - good luck.

[woofgang]

What mamya said. If it makes you feel well and happy then its the right diet for you

[Theland]

Vegetables have feelings too you know?
I have known a few cabbages in my life that were rather sensitive?
