The Veganism Thread

[Patchelicious]

haha, there was a program on tv with that woman who helped ppl diet and she would analyse the "contestants" poop.... 

 

feck...

 

[cfcjim]

me too... 

Oh yes, she is a charlatan of the highest order.

Really shitty contribution to the thread.

 

I think fibre intake has a much bigger influence on how regular you will be.

shitty contrubtion. (pun intended probably)

Google says that a healthy person should excrete 3 times per day to 3 times per week. That probably means that the person has a fibre deficiency if he craps 3 times per week.

 

Lets focus on saving gains in our poop rather than on our bikes ????????????

wat ?

Don't feed the troll.

Don't feed the troll.

Feeding the troll makes the troll post about his poop.

 

Go see a doctor if you’re worried about what comes out. Wasn’t this thread about what goes in?

It's actually not a bad point. I k@kked like a beast when I stopped eating meat. It made me wonder where and why all this stuff was hanging around inside.

 

One of the biggest differences I felt was very much a lightness. No jokes. I suppose that applies just as literally here... ????????‍♂️

Maybe if you fed him some common sense it would help

Just like digestive systems, it’s the same with forum threads it’s “junk in, junk out”...

[Patchelicious]

I seen the same testimonials from people who have tried the carnivore diet, abominable sh#ts for a week or so until it all settles

 

"It’s a different thing, and with regular diarrhoea I would compare it to a fire you see coming a block or two away and you have the time to make an escape, whereas this carnivore diet is like out of nowhere the fire is coming through the cracks, your doorknob is red hot, and all hope is lost."

As long as I've been on this thread

I think that I'm one of the only vegans here, how can I be a troll????????‍♂️.

 

It baffles me that we as humans today know so little about the human body. So I thought that if the human body might be designed to digest animal protein/plant protein effectively then our 'stool' can maybe tell us more if we compare it to the stools of other animals (especially human like animals) and how many times a day they poop.

8 days full vegan... 

 

2 kgs down. 

Watches are looser on my wrists. Water loss from less salt in diet i suspect. 

More comfrotable to get into the drops on my road bike. 

 

Entered Brighton marathon 2021 so need to shed some weight so lets see how this goes. 

 

Sad to say my poos are pretty much like they were before so cant add value in that regard. 

 

Edit: but i have noticed i dont get up in the middle of the night to pee anymore.

Very interesting observation about the 3:00 pee fest no longer happening. This alone is worth converting to veganism. 

 

How old are you if you don't mind me asking. I'm 39 and sometimes I get up twice a night to go let the old snake wander in the pasture.

55....eek ... 

 

I dont know why that is, and i guess its still to early to make a call on it as there are variables i probably have not thought of but it is a strange side effect. 

 

I also have stopped with the junk sweets and crap though, so might be related to that

Wow, good job.

 

Was there anything easier or more difficult going full vegan than you had first thought 9 days ago?

 

Edit: apart from the peeing, thats a stunning victory

Interesting question that. Had to think about it. To add, at this point its an experiment. I want to give it a month and see how it goes and how i feel. i was never a big meat eater or dairy consumer but i did like cheese, a whole pile. My motivation is relatively selfish in that i want to feel healthier and live better. ( so not from a moral aspect but thats a side benefit) 

 

It has been remarkably easy to adapt to it. We have a famers market in town for a few days a week so easy to get fresh whole foods. Another aspect is how easy i have taken to fruit and veggies and snacks are now carrots and monkey nuts. I also have an understanding spouse which is paramount i spose. 

 

Think the "mind" trick is not to feel deprived or that i am missing out on something.

We also started with an experiment - the exact as you with asking what could the health benefits be. We found the intangible 'moral' aspects just kind of grew quietly in the background the longer we stuck with it. Its been an interesting shift.

 

And I agree 1000% with your last statement - as soon as you feel hard done by then it becomes unsustainable. 

 

Thats cool, I look forward to later feedback
