Subject: Re: need help on my diet!
Hi Kathy..
I can’t seem to eat meats or fish as they taste like
blood, which is why I throw up..my parents tried to
make me eat it as a child and I couldn’t.
My son is exactly the same.. from being a baby when I
was weaning him and you mash up their food he’d find
the bits of meat I’d mixed in and spit them out.
So has anyone any ideas as to other proteins I can
eat. I eat alot of soya products like Quorn, are they
ok to eat instead of meat.
*I am sorry for you, about the meat thing. I don’t really understand though…
I’ve always enjoyed devouring flesh. Especially red meat. Actually, red meat has
always been my favorite. Since childhood I would scoff at people who warned me
of the dangers of red meat consumption; though I was eating all feedlot-tortured
& toxin-pumped U.S.D.A. grade “A” red meat for the first 21 years of my
existence I always felt the distinctive rush of energy that accompanies a solid
meal of red meat. I was almost always a physical lad who burned it up, used it
well.*
*Now I have experience with eating a lot of raw meat. Slup slup slup slup!*
“My son is exactly the same.. from being a baby when I
was weaning him and you mash up their food he’d find
the bits of meat I’d mixed in and spit them out.”
*Hmmmm. From what I’ve learned of transpersonal psychology, well, basically the
inter-penetrating nature of Reality and consciousness itself… given the bonds
that CAN (and should) formed between mother and child I would have to say that I
don’t find the “intuitive” actions/behavior of any child of a mother such as
yourself to be their own true nature, given the emotionally volatile atmosphere
you probably have against animal flesh, especially red mammal flesh. Do you feel
a need to argue or clarify on this aspect of my incredulity regarding your
child?*
Oh by the way, its nice to see that my predicament amuses some people ‘the
barfing vegetarian’I only hope that one day that person has a predicament that
he needs help and support with and all he gets in return is the ‘wet’ taken out
of him and left feeling at a loss.
*Why can’t you address me by name, Knapper? Or should I call you Vegan Julie
“Barfbag” Knapper? How about Julie “Vegan Barfbag” Knapper?*
“I only hope that one day that person has a predicament that he needs help and
support with and all he gets in return is the ‘wet’ taken out of him and left
feeling at a loss.”
*Really? Is it because I eat meat? I’ve eaten well over a pound a day of meat,
lots of red meat, for over two years since going into the BTD “full tilt”. Is
that why I should be punished? Or is it because I made humor with your entrance?
Can’t you see the humor in your own life? Can’t you take it lightly? My
experience, inside and outside the vegan/vegetarian community is… that
animal-protein deficient Os lack sufficient brain fuels and enzymes to both a)
survive and b) enjoy life. To enjoy it is to release some chemicals, hormones,
neurohormones, etc. You are just surviving, that is your body’s main imperative,
and that is about all that your body can manage, I’m afraid. You want the “wet”
taken out of me? Is that meek-speak for “shit”? Aw, come on! I should tell you
the story of my life, believe me, it’s not a happy little tale… I think I’ve
“paid my dues”, but if you want to enjoy my pain I’m more than willing to share
it with you. I must warn you that our Master of Health, this group’s Savior will
most likely not be pleased, as I was born into and raised/warped by Jews and I’m
afraid I don’t have much good to say about them, from personal experience. I’ve
also “paid my dues” in the dietetic realm. Your wish has already been granted,
many times over what you would want upon someone. So remember, God is All, God
is Everywhere and Everything, and your wishes are most definently noted.*
I joined this group in the hope of some support and
help. You all seemed like helpful friendly people,
sadly there’s always one who has to be an arsehole!
*[making nervous “gahh ahh ahh!”; pulling collar off neck]*
Thanks for taking the time to reply to me Kathy and
offering your advice it was greatly appreciated. If
there are other people out there who can offer some
friendly advice that would be appreciated too.
*Oh, you must be talking to me! I’d be glad to help you!*
“So has anyone any ideas as to other proteins I can
eat. I eat alot of soya products like Quorn, are they
ok to eat instead of meat.”
*Ummm. Isn’t Quorn made from fungus? I remember reading from a few Americans in
one of the more popular usenet newsgroups about how a number of Americans
(including poster’s personal accounts) had experienced some outstanding negative
reactions to the fungal protein “superfood of the future!” Of course, I had
managed to down 40-60g of dried organic tofu fermented with organic miso paste,
uncooked. This when a skinny washed up experimenting vegetarian. No reaction at
that point, but at a 15 pound plus heavier healthy O… look out! My immune
system FREAKS!*
*I was writing this skimming through the last week’s ER4YT digests. Good to see
everyone jump on the fungus wagon. Same old, same old, here, eh?*
