Vegetarianism, cycling and general health
The future Mrs. Bikeguyinvenice is a vegetarian and challenged me to go a week without meat, that was 7 days ago. I'm not dead yet so I am thinking about continuing with the challenge. Last nights dinner was veggie stir fry with tofu. Tasted just fine to me and it had protein which is the one thing I was a little concerned about. I don't want to start losing muscle mass from lack of protein. But on the other hand I guess I could do the protein shake thing and hit the gym more often if I feel I am losing muscle. I know that vegetarians are over all healthier than their omnivore counterparts. So who is a vegetarian, how long have you been a vegetarian, why did you make the switch and hows is your health?
