Pixie, Calm the fuck down, by "hardcore" I just meant dedicated. As in they aren't one of the people who claims they're a veg while still slipping up occasionally. As far as how its hard to keep weight on, I'm an athlete, 6foot five, and eat 5-6 full meals a day. This basically means that I need to eat constantly, and its a lot easier to eat enough calories when you aren't limited on things to eat. I could get along fine as a veg, but its just not conducive to my lifestyle. Anyway, I feel that a limited amount of meat is healthy and as long as you make sure the meat comes from an ethical source, I choose to eat it. Its really a personal choice on what I feel makes me the healthiest and fits my lifestyle and moral values. Peace
im sure animals agree your diet is pretty healthy too and are happy for you and wish you a long healthy life. i bet there gutted that been veggie isnt *conducive* to your life style though. wanker!!!!
I don't think meat comes from any ethical source, at the end of the day animals are killed to produce meat!
Yes. The whole point of being a moral vegetarian is that you believe that killing isn't ethical. Therefore, from a vegetarian's point of view, no meat can be from an ethical source, if it comes from a farm or a hunter. It is easy to keep weight on or off on a vegan diet in my experience.
i don't drink milk straight up or eat eggs by themselves, does that make me a flexi-vegan? nope, still a vegetarian. just one who cuts back on the dairy and eggs.
