I was thinking of giving up meat for lent?!


Question: I was thinking of giving up meat for lent?
If I give it up for that amount of time,(from March 9 to April 24) when I start eating it again, will it make me feel sick?

Thanks!

Great idea! Make sure to take vitamins soo you won't be deprived and eat alot of veggie and tofu protein (cheese, milk, veggie burgers, etc.)
It may, so gradually ease into it. Start with some meat sauce, then some sliced meat in a salad, then some bacon or meat as a side dish, then as a full meal!



Replying to JaAm, ya pretty much not to mention when you start eating it again you could easily get sick your stomach will weaken due to the disuse. It won't be able to handle it as well as it once did it will take awhile before your digestion gets back to what it used to be.



No. The enzymes in your stomach that digest the protein in beans are the ones that digest protein in meat. You should be fine.



Unlikely, unless it already makes you sick.



No.



Your skin will go pale, your strength will decrease with the lack of protein and your body won't get the vital vitamins from the meat...
