about the whole vegetarian thing - i'm sorry but i think it is healthy to eat meat and just not over do it. you need protein and vitamins (yes, i am aware of the supplements you can take and also of the food alternatives that are full of these essentials). but in my opinion, i think meat is a necessary food group to include in our diets. i stick with lean meats like chicken, turkey and i love seafood. and i don't mean to sound gross but i love a rare juicy steak or burger...but i only eat red meat like a few times a year. i try to stay away from that. anyways, i won't be giving up my lean meats anytime soon!
