The Weekly Friday Feast

Good evening all, happy friday feast and it looks like it is going to be an extra special friday feast!!!!

@Appleblossom i am not going anywhere, i am sorry about your thread, i was just answering questions from others, i did not mean to take over, sorry, i have started a new thread.

wow i can't believe how many vegans are around, i love salads, i had a salad for lunch, but just can't seem to go without meat, sorry.

do you guys find you are lacking any essential vitamins and minerals being vegan? i have a god mother who is vegan and she is always sick, i don't know if their is a link. i don't know much about it.

My son and I are not vegan but his girlfriend is and we try to indulge her. We eat dairy, eggs and meat about 3 times per week. i dont particularly want to change as I think it is a good balance .. I just have to watch the portion sizes, though.

It is becoming popular and is one of the signs of progress I dont mind.

Oh ok, i thought their might be extra fruits and vegitables that would offset the lack of meat, do you have to keep an eye on how much suppliments you take?

wow i didn't know it could help chronic illness, it makes sense, with al lthe chemicals in foods these days, it is good to get back to the basics.

Hi @Jacques

I'm healthiest I've ever been! I've not had a flu in about 7 years, and the for the first time in about 4 years this year, I got a cold but I think it was more to do with being run down and feeling stressed.

I find being very conscious of dietry needs helps and having a holistic (good sleep routine, exercise, managing stress) reallly helps... I should mention that I grew up in a family that ate load of meat. It took me a few years to go completely go vegetarian and move towards vegan.

yes that doessound like a good balance, yes it is good to see society move a little forward, it may not be bad if more people tried eating veggies instead of take away.

How are you @Mazarita you have been quiet for a while.

foooooood! lol I've started a diet. and dont feel like anything healthy lol!! i know it will pass when i get back on track with my eating but the first few weeks suck! So i'll enjoy a piece of @CherryBomb s cake tonight 😄 😄

Hi there, I hope you all had a good week. Mine went pretty well even if at the time, at the start of each day I wonder if I am going to make it. I am so looking forward to some warmer weather. Sometimes I can't work myself out , I love being around people but I have found that I need my days at home to regroup. Take care every one.
