it's way easier than many people think, it's a common misconception. you're replacing your protein sources, not cutting them. personally I eat a lot of chickpeas, lentils, beans, soy etc.

and I'm saying this as an rear end in a top hat who ages ago used to think that every meal needed animals in it, I've eaten meat all my life before this decision and I still know how good it can taste, I simply switched for ethical and environmental reasons

here are some resources but it's not rocket science really, just cook some rice and assorted vegetables however you want them. new stuff like beyond meat and similar is great to ease you into it and also if you're really missing the feel of a fat juicy burger every now and then

Genuinely, thank you. That makes me more hopeful to do this. My wife would like to lose weight for both physical and mental health, as well, and it's pretty common sense that veggies are better for you than burgers, anyhow. Changing or at least just modifying our diet bwas in the cards, anyways, and, ironically, my drive for them to be healthy and happy has always helped motivate me to do the same for my own self.

The encouragement was really helpful.

E: I'm sorry, I didn't see how far the thread had moved, should have hit refresh.

Highly recommend getting comfy making an Indian curry

Uses heaps of veges, spicy as you want it

Filling and nutritional

My "in" was Chana masala and a basic korma and it all kinda clicks after that

Oh yeah, we really like curries! Indian food is very good!

Again, I really am grateful for all the folks that were helpful. It may be a bumpy adjustment, but I think this is doable.

What's the logic of this cartoon meant to be? Blizzard is the guy in the back? But the mountain itself is also Blizzard? Or the guy in the back made the mountain? And also he has Overwatch in the "you're doing amazing" side even though it came out after two of the "Blizzard is going downhill" games. Getting irrationally angry at this

Those loving reddit comics anger me more than stonetoss.

"Hey guise, when u play video game and you quicksave but accidentally quickload and lose progress!!"
"Unpopular video game is BAD"
"Wen u sit on ur gaming chair and its comfortable"
"That feeling when ur frame rate is a bit too low"
"Incredibly common nerd experience? Guess what, I experience it too"
"TFW u r hungry then u eat food"

It's just the most banal poo poo possible. It's not even jokes, it's never saying anything or making any sort of a point.

You forgot the one thing in your life you didn't link back to your video game fixation, which is your cat that you named after food.
