In my previous diet post, Healthy Diet Goals and Guidelines for 2010, I mentioned I wanted to eat less meat, even though my body seems to thrive on an Atkins-like diet high in animal fats.
In this post, I’ll discuss the why and how of this decision in detail. My goal is to gradually change my diet, so that by the end of 2010 I won’t be eating any dead animals anymore. A 100% plant based diet would be ideal, but I’m not sure I could go that far yet, so my goal is just to eliminate all meat from my diet.
If you’re a seasoned vegetarian, please feel free to post advice and suggestions for an aspiring lacto-vegetarian, especially if your diet is low in grains and low or moderate in carbs! I might need your advice!
The change of our calendar year is a good time to sit down for a while, think about how I’d like to spend the upcoming year, and to set some goals. In this post, I’ll explain my diet goals for 2010 and explain what I think would be a healthy diet.
Expect to read musings about the following:
- General guidelines for a diet I believe is the healthiest one for me and for everyone. Yes, you too!
- Confused musings about the more controversial diet issues: why I’m not quite sure about them but how I feel about them anyway.
- Why I feel there is no One True Perfect Dietâ„¢ that would magically make everyone healthy.
- A summary of my diet goals for 2010.
