I lived with a vegetarian woman for 5 years, I've acquired the taste.
Baraka, thanks for that list, I actually like everything on that list, but I'm guessing my own acquisition of lettuce will be difficult as I really have no place to put it, and I'm not really going to chow down an an entire head in one sitting
tho I guess it would still be cheaper than buying a premade salad at some diner if I just ate a reasonable amount and chucked the rest.
heres a lil Q&A (or rather the Q's if you could help out with the A's)
Q, how bad is it to eat someplace like a mongolian BBQ? I usually load up with noodles, mongolian fire oil, and tofu. Seems healthy enough, but I'm guessing the oil could be the wild card in that?
Q, I guess it's bad to eat late at night because your metabolism sucks while you're sleeping but if you're really hungry or know that you're coming in too low for the daily intake due to missing a meal or something due to work/life etc.. what kind of food would be good?
Q, Vitamin capsules, Some of my previous experience with vegetarians basically said they had to rely on these for protein because they didn't really like the natural sources of it. Are these a good idea in general anyway?
Q, Green tea "on the go"? Are there any popular outlets for this kind of drink? Again, not really able to make it myself with the lack of a kitchen. I could keep an eye out for it but I'm pretty sure most places are of the mcdonalds iced tea variety.
Q, I alluded to this before but I guess I should straight out ask, what kind of intake should I be aiming for in terms of calories/fat and should I be looking at other factors when considering weight loss besides just those 2 things? I don't really worry about the cholesterol content in eggs because if you knew how I was eating before you'd probably be shocked that I'm still standing. (I could be the poster child for the sequel to "Super Size Me" probably)
thanks guys
