veg out

tuesday has arrived and it has made most things all better. thanks for suffering through monday with me. now on to more important topics...

i have, for the most part, given up meat. i should say that my body has given it up, i didn't really make a conscious effort to change. over the past several months it's just gotten worse and worse. i can tolerate less and less. i keep trying, as if giving it up would do some harm to my body, but my body just isn't having it. i can eat about as much as marz can and she's no big eater. i can't explain what happened. i have no idea where it's come from. but it just grosses me out to eat it. i can still tolerate and still love fish. if my body starts to reject fish i will be very sad. but it's definitely now a challenge to find things to cook where i can either leave the meat portions for everyone else, or not put meat in altogether. no i don't feel sorry for the animal really. yes i believe the majority of society eats way too much meat and it's unhealthy. so i don't have a problem at all with going vegetarian, as far as the food and philosophy are concerned. but it's just being able to feed the rest of my family and keep them happy that is now stumping me. stay tuned as i learn more about the word of wisdom, our bodies and how they process things, and about the giant raw food world that i have discovered.

If you find some good vegetarian recipes or ones where meat can be left out in certain portions let me know. Matt is not a meat person either and i'm always having a hard time thinking of things to make.(Since i am very much a meat person)
