I practically do not ignore meat, whenever I am at the palengke or grocery. I don't even notice it or think about it----well, except for the foul odor.
What used to be snacks and desserts have become main courses. I can pick up a fruit and munch on it. That is good enough for my lunch or dinner.
A healthy, nutritious diet is not a target I strive hard to achieve. It's not something I am forcing, frustrating over, struggling to adopt.
And I do it naturally and with ease.
I think what made it easy for me to convert to light-based nutrition is that I did for myself. I did not do it thinking of becoming sexy (which I was anyway HAHAHAHA), or becoming more attractive for a partner.
When I say "light-based", I am not only referring to vegetarian-vegan. Instead, there are times when I actually incorporate breatharian. As you can tell, there is some "spiritual" motivation, though I prefer not to use the term "spiritual". For me, it is something innate and does not require such label. When we use that word, it almost sounds like it is something separate from what we naturally are.
What's the best thing about hanging out with vegan/light-based eaters? Most likely, they know how to cook. We almost cannot (or choose not to) eat anything in the usual restaurants, diners, cafes, fast food chains. Often, we have to prepare our meals and baons from scratch.
There are passionate vegans who have delivery services. And there are diners. But most of these are "by schedule" basis or located in the inskirts of the metropolis. Unless you live in a highly vegan area (such as certain Muslim/Buddhist countries), they are still uncommon.
What Light-Based Is For Me
