    I’ve been on and off vegetarian for almost 10 years now. I notice that meat is a very heavy substance for my body to process. I often feel tired and guilty after eating meat. This is mainly because I know that I wouldn’t kill an animal for its meat which makes me feel hypocritical. I’m 99% vegetarian now, with the only time I will eat meat is if I am eating food other people gave me at restaurants or their homes. I no longer pay for meat.

    I also have proven to myself that it is more than possible to gain muscle as a vegan. Many omnivores swear that gaining muscle and strength is only viable on a meat based diet. I know for a fact this is not true.

    I would recommend soy based foodstuffs, legumes, nuts, and seeds for protein. I make my own trail mix from bulk and then eat Edemame 3-4 times a week. Since I’m not a bodybuilder or powerlifter, I find I need less protein than typically recommended for my strength goals. I just do what works for my needs and tastes good.
