I am going to try 6 days on, 1 day off vegetarian for the next 30 days and see how it goes :)

I am in Victoria BC as well, feel free to add me :)

I eat a lot of meat, especially since I have been lifting weights more and more, but that is my choice. I eat organic fed or free-range when money permits. Your body needs protein, and you must PROPERLY replace it (and the iron) from other foods if you are going to cut it out, or you will become anemic etc.

I find the same thing with veggies! If I cut up the whole bag of carrots right away and have it in tupperware in the fridge, they get eaten- not just by me, but by my fiance and daughter too!

I prefer to work out on an empty stomach, before breakfast first thing in the morning. I find I get a better work out and have more energy FOR my work out......I have read that it is best to do this as your body will burn more calories. Maybe I am just weird but that's how I always have done it! When I do work out in the…

My work is doing a similar thing, but we don't have all the resources you guys have at the hospital, LUCKY!!!! Great job and keep at it! I am in first place at my work right now @ 9%, and unfortunately most people are just not motivated enough to keep at it or join in the first place- where did all the money come from that…
