I recently became a vegan. Is it always gonna be this hard.

I'm mainly doing it for health reasons but obviously for the animals as well. I just hope it's not gonna be this hard because as a former meat eater, meat still tastes good. I have a pretty big appetite so with this new diet, I have to eat a lot more to feel content. That part sucks.

@abe182 Do your due diligence and research. As someone who can admit meat tastes very good, hence my post of veganism being extremely hard for me, a lot of meats we eat are carcinogenic which can cause cancer. That is an actual fact.

@juwanaman and fat and protein are VITAL for good health and life. Just measure the tradeoffs is all I ask.

@abe182 There are many protein sources that doesn't come from meat. Meat isn't the only thing that has protein.

@juwanaman Meat is not carcinogenic. The only thing that might make meat bad is too much protein which is what most Americans get when they eat out twice a day four times a week. Too much protein causes too much amino acids. While amino acids are essential, they are not needed in the large dose that is mostly caused by the SAD and not by meat alone.

Correlation doesn't equal causation.

Even when they do finally shop, it's all junk food anyways, those people can hardly be called true meat eaters. This is primarily where they get cancer and diabetes from is eating simple sugars, yo-yo dieting, not exercising, eating processed CARBS for the most part and giant large sodas.

So meat being carcinogenic is nonsense.

@SatanBurger Sorry, just because you say it's not carcinogenic doesn't make it true just for your own relief. I'll even link you to a credible source, unlike yourself just stating things just to state it. You seem very ignorant and not willing to your own research and just in denial because you eat meat and don't want to feel guilty so you're saying it's not so just to clear your own guilty conscience of eating it and convincing yourself it's not a health risk. Here are my sources. If you want to debunk it, please reply with a source back not just baseless statements like 'it's not true'. You have to come better then that.
