    If it had a pulse, I'll eat it; preferably after said pulse has stopped, but that is not necessarily a requirement.

    I'm a Paleo follower from NYC, and I found out recently that I am directly descended from the Cro-Magnon mammoth hunters of Western Europe (via 23andMe.com), so yeah, I'm a meat eater. But I no longer eat it indiscriminately; it needs to be GOOD meat, like grass-fed beef, free range hormone-free chicken; plus I have a butcher here who gets me wild boar, elk, deer, antelope, caribou, pheasant, wild goose and duck...all free-range preserve raised.

    Take a look at my profile and my diaries; I've lost almost 20 lbs. in 4 months, and I'm never hungry.

    And...60 is the new 40!

    I just found out I'm 96% more cro-magnon descent than anyone else via 23andme. I, too, eat paleolithically. We hunt/fish and buy our beef straight from a ranch who then butchers and packages it up for us right there. There's never a better tasting steak than the ones from our freezer! :)

    Personally, I was chubbier when I ate less meat.
    I assume your vegan friend knows how to get non-meat protein though. I didn't haha.

    Depends on the meat and how it's prepared if I'll like it or not. Actually, I have to remind myself to have some and have to plan to get it in two or three times a week.

    I could be a fatazz vegan easy. Oreos, French fries, falafel, hummus, vegan chocolate, coconut anything, nuts, pasta, vegan sausage.

    There used (?) to be this Tumblr vegan blogger/artist (radfatvegan or something like that) who for a short time had a cooking YT channel. She was obese and unapologetic about it and the meals that she created were...my god, most of them went over 1k cals a serving EASY. There was no mystery as why she was over 300lbs and vegan.

    Protein fills me up, and helps me keep my muscle mass. Meat is the leanest, lowest carb protein there is.

    I only eat organic meat, it is more expensive, but better to eat good quality and once a week than bad one every day grown with hormones

    It depends. I'm not vegan, I love meat and it is quite filling. However if it's not white meat, I can only eat a little or else I feel sick. I'm vegetarian 3 days a week and eat meat 4 days, it's hard but it is fewer calories. I love meat though lol plus protein benefits

    Organic venison for this guy & non farm raised fish. How do I know they are organic? I harvest it all myself & process my own. From field & water to my table with no middle man/woman between me & my meat... :)

    ^^^ wrong - eating in a surplus causes weight gain, not just eating meat...

    as for me, as long as it's heart has stopped, it's fair game!!

    I eat little to no meat. If I do, it's seafood or chicken. NO red meat.

    I think meat is good esp in a healthy diet, lean meat with fat/skin removed. High protein too x

    My vegan friend thinks it is easier to keep her weight down since she does not eat meat.

    I think meat fills me up.

    How about ya?

    I don't understand your friend's logic...there are a lot of meats that are very low calorie...there are a lot of vegan friendly foods that are calorie bombs.

    I think that whether you eat meat or not is pretty irrelevant where weight management is concerned...I know some fat *kitten* vegans and vegetarians...
