Like you, I loved how I felt when eating vegetarian. It was a tough challenge though, with most of my friends and local family being big-time meat lovers.

When you think about it, my ‘eating less’ approach applies just as much to meat as anything else. If I can consume 75% or even 50% less meat on a daily basis, I’m making some difference both in my body and in the world. It’s not ‘vegetarian’ or ‘vegan’ but it should have a noticeable result.

That’s great! One thing I really want to get into more is farmer’s markets. The good ones in our area of Florida only run in the Winter (during ’season’) but there are a few summer selections. Also, driving out 30-45 minutes to the farmlands east of us might actually be cost-effective because of the low prices out there.

Great post. I used to be a vegan and ate so much better and had a healthy weight. I’m in the process of going back to that lifestyle to improve not only my weight but overall health. I’ll have to keep track to see if I’m cutting our food costs any.

We have been doing this for a few years now, with the help of the farmer’s market and portion control. My weakness is that I love sweets! So I’ve been trying to cut back on those, limiting myself to one treat per day. Something that I can really enjoy.
