A few months ago, I tried tofu.
Last week, I tried hummus with breadsticks.
For breakfast this morning, I devoured tomato couscous with black olive chunks.
And I think I’d like to become a vegetarian.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve condemned animal cruelty and believe that the slaughter of animals was heart-wrenchingly upsetting and unethical. I would shudder listening to "Meat is Murder" by The Smiths. I used to cry my eyes out watching YouTube videos of distressed farm animals being flogged, tasered and tortured until they spasmed violently and slowly died on the floor. I like reading about people adopting animals, Darwin’s theory of evolution and I admire PETA’s campaigns for the prevention of animal cruelty. So my questions are:
What health risks could I run into for avoiding meat consumption? (Anemia?)
What are your favourite vegetarian foods?
What foods wouldn’t you recommend to a new vegetarian?
What are your personal reasons for refusing to eat meat?
How difficult is it to maintain a completely meat-free diet?
As a vegan/vegetarian, what foods besides meat do you avoid eating?
Thank you, guys! I’m fifteen years old it it helps.
I have spent a lot of time around vegetarians and vegans, specifically raw-food vegans, and I can tell you that only the most liberal vegetarian diet works. The idea that you do not need the resources contained in meats and other animal products is absurd. The strict vegetarian diet cannot sustain a healthy human being. Every single strict vegetarian and vegan I have met has had serious mental and physical problems. For instance, I spent two weeks living in a family of raw food vegans. The grandmother was a psycho who was unable to control her mental stability, her daughter had serious skin problems, and the grandchildren all had mental issues, including seizures. The family’s survival was always on the brink of absolute insanity. All real vegetarians I have met (not including the ones that eat fish and eggs, nice try, you’re not fooling me) have had pale complexion, poor mental health (mostly minor problems, not insanity), and poor physical health (either under or overweight, and unable to remedy either).
There’s nothing wrong with vegetarian food. There IS something wrong with a vegetarian diet, to eat nothing but vegetarian food. I do not condone unnecessary animal cruelty either, but neither do I consider food production to be unnecessary.

What are things you have done to save money? I’ve many so many changes since two years ago, so I’m listing everything I’m doing now that I used to not do before. Here goes:
Electricity
-I unplug everything that is not in use. I save about half of my electricity.
-I try to do all or most of my homework during the day. When its dark, I go to the library which is 2 minutes away and closes late so I wont use the lights at home.
-I use my laptop and I charge it at school, library, or starbucks.
-Over the summer, forget the air conditioner. I use a fan (and I always turn it off when I leave the room) or I stay outside and go hang out in air conditioned places.
-My family tends to stay in the same room so we have the lights on in only one room at a time
-We use fluorescent lightbulbs. They use so much less energy (75% less) and last a lot longer than regular ones (I used to have to replace my bulbs every 2-3 months. Now with fluorescent lightbulbs I haven’t had to replace it in over two years)
Extra Expenses
-I dont have internet. I use someone else’s wireless.
-I don’t have cable. You can find almost any show online at Hulu.com or something. Maybe even youtube. Besides, getting rid of cable means you’ll have the TV turned on less often and you’ll save electricity.
-I used to have netflix and paid $20 a month. Then I realized I can get almost all of these movies for free at the library! For those movies I cant get at the library, netflix has this thing where you can put your account on hold for 90 days at a time.
-When I go to the movies, I buy a child’s ticket at the machine (they rarely really check anyway) and I see more than one movie at a time.
Transportation
-Since I live in New York City, we dont have a car. That way we dont have to pay $300+ monthly on parking.
-For New Yorkers, sharing an unlimited metrocard with friends and family saves so much money.
Food and household products
-I always eat at home and I take my own lunch to school
-When buying groceries or household items, I never get anything full price. Always one sale!
-Eat less. I used to overeat a lot. I spent so much money on food and I got sick more. Now I eat normally and I spend less money on food and medical expenses and I have a better body.
-It’s really cheap, but I usually go into fast food restaurants and take napkins. I haven’t bought paper towels in over a year.
-I go to Costco’s often (I carpool with friends) and I save SO much money.
-I dont buy water bottles. $1 a day or twice a day is too much. I save $30-$60 per month and I buy a refillable SIGG bottle and get water from home.
-I dont usually buy name brands.
Medical
-To avoid constant trips to the doctor’s office, I have a notebook full of questions so I can ask him all these questions in one visit. When he prescribes something, I ask him for samples. If I need to get the prescription, I avoid the pharmacy and get them online. Much cheaper.
Pets
-They’re really expensive. Expect to pay over $60 monthly on food alone. One annual check up with the vet can easily cost you $300. Emergencies/medications/surgeries can cost you thousands of dollars. If you dont have pets, then I suggest you keep it that way. But if you really want one or you already have pets and dont want to find them a new home (like me!), then you can still save.
-I always buy my cats things on sale. And I mix their litter with shredded paper. That way one 25lb box of litter lasts about 4 months.
-Don’t overfeed your pets. Same reason you shouldnt overeat. More food expenses and more health issues.
Entertainment/ Vacation
-You dont always have to spend money. Hang out with friends at home, have a picnic (money on food, but that’s minimal if everyone pitches in).
-There are places that are free on certain days. For example, here in NYC, the bronx zoo is pay what you wish on wednesdays. For me that means free. The Met museum of art is always pay what you wish.
-I tend to go on vacation when prices are cheaper. So I avoid holiday vacations and long weekend vacations.
Living Space
-If you’re really short of cash, which many New Yorkers are, you can always rent a spare bedroom. You’d be surprised at how much people would pay for a bedroom in NYC.
I also don’t use toilet paper at all. I just wait until I shower the next day to clean myself.
Just kidding.
Since I started doing all these things, we’ve saved up at thousands of money annually.
I just wanted to put some of these ideas out there and maybe find out what other people are doing?
Dan, I get what you mean, and I’ve thought of it too. But when we share metrocards, its not like we go out of our way to share it. We usually have different schedules. I commute in the morning and she commutes at night, so we thought it didnt make sense to buy two metrocards. If we needed to though, we would buy a second one.
And I figured if someone didnt want someone else to use their wireless, they would use a password, right?
Sounds like you are doing OK. Other ideas are:
Cut down water wastage – don’t leave tap running when brushing teeth. Same applies to shower.
Use timer for hot water immersion. Mine is set for one hour twice a day. I don’t need to have constant hot water during the hours I am out.
Cook several meals at once. It takes less power to reheat or microwave later.
See if you can delay your weekly shop by one day. In theory, by the 7th day, you should have a week’s spending money in hand.
Defer haircuts for an extra week or two, or grow hair long. Use face flannel to mop up excess water drops from body after shower, or from hair after washing. Towel stays almost dry, needs less laundering.
Dry laundry on clothes horse indoors or on clothesline in open air
Are you fattish and hoping to use hoodia?
Hoodia is the world’s most influential eating habit suppressant that is in the form of a succulent- the fat plants, that have ability to retain water adapted to arid climate or soil conditions. Bushmen from the region are using hoodia for years to help ward off hunger during long travels in the desert.
hoodia Gordonii is sold in capsule, liquid, or tea kind in health food stores and on the Net. Hoodia gordonii can be found in the arid areas of South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola.
The hunger pangs- suppressing potential of Hoodia prompted the scientists at the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) to consider the herb. Hoodia gleaning is a long term process and needs time. Researchers have found out as some as 20 odd hoodia varieties but in reality only among them actually works for losing weight.
Hoodia gordonii is entirely natural herb product – it is not a prescription drug. Search is still operating on hoodia and researchers and drugs companies are attempting stronger than always to get the advisable out of hoodia .
Clinical researches have been completed to prove the strength of hoodia.
The participants were separated into two radicals, one group had the P57 and the other had a placebo. Both groupings were told to continue their natural dieting foods and exercising. Reports were made with following consequences:
Hoodia grouping and non-hoodia group effects:
The P57 grouping had a better large reduction in body fat.
Hoodia gordonii grouping had tremendous step-down in caloric intake.
The P57 had no adverse side effects.
Eating Up hoodia led to a difference in calories intake of virtually 1000 in all.
Adverse effects are not reportable connected totaking hoodia. Hoodia infact has been widely used as a natural food – so some chances it should not do much painful in terms of fallouts.
How can P57 (and Hoodia Gordonii) actually curb eating habit to such a great extent?
Hoodia and the effective ingredients in hoodia actually simulate the essence of glucose and charges signaling to the brain that blood in body has plenty of glucose and therefore free energy and thus no demand to consume any further food.
Hunger and thirst is taken off with the indicaton to the brain and stomach tends to sense full.
If you’re on the Net seeking for hoodia gordonii, it’s almost impossible to recognize you’re buying the real genuine hoodia. There are simply far too some scam artists on the loose, and trying their best to extract money out of hoodia crazy people. Everybody wants to lose weight, right?
I promise by debunking these defrauds by authorities and providing honest data I can assist you avoid buying a bad hoodia product.
Tips To Purchase Real Hoodia Gordonii
Everyone has something to say when it comes to dieting and reducing weight with hoodia gordonii.
• Do NOT use any product established on hoodia on any other variety except for Hoodia Gordonii. "Natural Hoodia" label itself is not a good deal informative instead it should read kinda like "Natural Hoodia Gordonii".
•The test samples that a company offers should be coherent with the chromatographical profile of the reference samples of Hoodia gordonii . Exclusively then you are confirmed that you are buying natural Hoodia Gordonii.
• A Great Deal of Hoodia products are prepared from the whole parts of plants. The Hoodia Gordonii herb has fibrous material, skin, leaves, flowers, etc., that has no active factor that aids in weight loss. So do not look for quantity. The effective ingredient is seen in the core. Prefer product if it is prepared by concentration.
• A proportion like 10:1 is often exposed which siginifies 1 gram of herb was made by utilising 10 grams of the whole plant. If you consider this, you will observe why it is better alternative to purchase 500 mg supplement than purchasing 1000 mg hoodia of other brandmark name if first one contains only density and the other is prepared by whole plant.

My mother is diabetic & has not been properly controlling her diet & is now have severe health problems. She’s not overweight, but really needs to change her eating habits & won’t do it as the doctor says. I feel that if I help her she will change them & hopefully live a little longer than the rate she’s going now (she’s only 47). Does anybody know of any websites with FREE diabetic eating guides or sample menus? She’s coming to stay with me & even if she doesn’t know it, I will be monitoring her health by preparing her food. I would really appriciate any help you can give me. Thanks in advance!
Also, does anybody know of any website with a full calorie chart for everything (fruits, veg, burgers, fast food, etc)? That one is for me, I need to lose weight & cutting calories is the only thing that has worked for me, so I do not end up like my mother 
Thank you again
When I was diagnosed with diabetes I did the same thing. I thought the doctor was loony tunes. I didn’t feel sick I felt terrific.
Here is what my wife did. First get your mom a good glucometer. I recommend either One Touch Ultra or The Accu-Check Compact. She should test 3 X a day. Right when she gets up in the morning. Once before Lunch and once before Dinner. Force her to do this. Even poking her yourself if you have to.
Next, there are community semenairs, usually free or very lowcost for non-residents and generally through the park district, showing people how to eat properly and how to keep count of what they eat. Your mom needs training. Cook Books won’t do that.
Third, counting calaories for diabetics and for anybody is a misnomer. You and your mom need to keep track of her carbohydrate intake. Carbs convert to sugar in the blood stream. You can have a 1200 calaorie diet and still be consuiming 25 Carbs. NOT GOOD. Even non-diabetics should do both Maintain low Carb count and an average calorie count.
Her carb count, and yours, should be somewhere near 14 or less to maintain a good sugar level. You can count the carbs by looking at the packages. 1 Carb = 15G of Carbohydrates. Remember a Hamburger/Hot Dog bun may actually be 2 carbs as it is a top and a bottom. READ READ AND READ the Nutrition information label on each product you use.
Also MEASURE MEASURE AND MEASURE your food. That is a great way to maintain both calaroies and carbs.
The last thing I have for both of you actually is to eat three meals a day. The more times you eat the less food you take in. Do not skip meals. That is tantamount to overeating to compensate for missed nutirition.
I went on this diet in 2004 and lost over 100 pounds. Your mom, even tho she maintains her weight, should lose a few pounds to. She may find that if she reduces her weight even 10 pounds, that her Blood sugar will be lower.
