Vegging it for 40 days?
I'm not Catholic, so I never observe Lent. However, I'm considering giving up meat for 40 days. I haven't had any today, so I figure I have until lunch to consider it. I know I'm talking to a group of grillers in the BBQ capital, but maybe there are some vegetarians in the group? Any advice?

Mostly to see if I can. However, I want to see how I feel. Most of the time, when I'm tempted to go to a fast food joint, it's because I want a burger. This will help me to avoid fast food, thus saving money and calories.
I guess I wouldn't mind finding out if there are other benefits? I just figure it doesn't hurt to try. |

If you want to do it as a personal challenge - then go ahead. The longest stretch I went was around 6 months. If you're not so much concerned with going a certain # of days but instead health benefits I would instead recommend a lifestyle change rather than a # of days type diet. Cut back, but don't cut it out completely. Limit your consumption to maybe twice a week or once a week or once every two weeks.

Why not wait until mid-summer when you might be able to get your hands on some fresher or home grown veggies?

I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't eat some type of meat.

I did this 3 years ago. It wasn't too bad honestly.
