So, i'm thinking of becoming a vegetarian for a month or two just to see if maybe my fat ass can lose some weight doing it. In actuality, it's more of an experiment to see how my body reacts to no longer eating meat every meal. Any suggestions and helpful hints from those who have tried vegetarianism? I'm esepcially interested in still staying meaningfully healthy. And if you don't want to contribute anything meaningful that's fine, please don't post. I DO NOT have any sort of PETA affiliation. I will post my results in this forum as time progresses. I probably won't start this trial until monday of next week.

But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Yeah i've made my own pasta sauce before... it's time consuming but well worth the effort. I used fresh tomatoes, minced garlic cloves, onions, bell peppers, various Italian spices, mushrooms, some tomato concentrate. Sauteed the vegetables and then I let them simmer in the tomato juices/spices for awhile, of course when I originally made this the sauce also included Italian sausage and ground beef. Thanks for the tips. I am defiantly rather carbohydrate heavy right now but I plan on cutting back my bread and pasta consumption but not eliminating it. Thanks for the tips!
