re: Plant based diet?

I eat meat 4-5 days a week, but usually only once per day. I lift weights, so I eat more protein than most folks. That said, it's easy to eat a lot of protein with a vegetarian diet (Greek yogurt, eggs, egg whites), and certainly not impossible even as a vegan. When I made the decision to eat less meat, I just replaced it with greens, lentils, and other legumes.

I eat seafood and chicken more often than beef, pork, etc. As someone said, going vegetarian would be pretty easy for me, and eating a pescetarian diet wouldn't be much of a challenge at all. I won't ever give up meat or beef altogether though... All things in moderation.

I also have this obsession with really cheap healthy foods. I buy steel-cut oats, lentils, and other legumes from bulk bins for around a dollar a pound. I try to eat a lot of fruits and veggies, and I'm not afraid to buy them frozen for convenience... Makes me much likely to eat them every day.
