Every Lent, I look and feel so good that I wonder why I don't eat like this all year.

All the carnivores think I'm nuts, but

It is.

What it is.

I’ve been inquiring into the Orthodox tradition, and they have fasts all year on certain days.

The periods without meat are a significant sacrifice and they're stricter with it.

About 2/3 of the year is dedicated to fasts lol

Yeah, I'm Catholic. Same.

But I think the Orthodox are more hardcore about it. Vegan, instead of vegetarian, or something.

I can't do vegan for more than a few days at a time. Food torture.

Lent is more "meat only on Sundays" and that seems to be enough to make me feel completely different.

It’s funny we you say that. We have a guy in our local Beef Talk chat, state he felt the best when he was vegan.

I could be missing the point of fasting in asking this, but how does one get enough protein? Is there an Orthodox Bodybuilding cookbook?

Legumes, I suppose.
