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?

I've made the change to Greek yogurt. I love the Chobani, but I like it much better when it's on sale. Dannon's Oikos is good (and typically cheaper). I like the one that has the fruit in the bottom. I haven't compared it to Chobani.

apparently sperm has 1.25 grams of protein per ejaculation, so there's that.

I don't think I'll be getting enough of that to sustain myself.

I've heard it from enough people, that I want to try. I really think that just eating seafood will be good. I just have to watch how it's prepared. Sure, shrimp is good, but not really if it's battered and deep fried, cooked and served with gobs of butter, etc.
A lot of people feel great when they first go veggie but it's because they are dropping a ton of crap food. Then, after a couple of years, they end up not feeling so great or end up with health issues (this is more true of vegans than vegetarians that eat some meat or eggs). The Paleo world is full of ex-vegans.

It might be easier to just drop the crap food.

Also, if you go primarily plant based, don't forget about potatoes. They are one of the few veg sources of complete protein and a good chunk of the carbs in them are resistant starches, which slow any blood sugar spikes and also feed the good bacteria in the gut. Since I've started making potatoes a big part of my diet, my blood sugar levels has actually gone down.

I prefer F A G E (stupid filter) and just eat the plain, non-fat (will sometimes mix in some blueberries). 18 grams of protein for only 100 calories (per 6 oz).

Nuh uh. The non-fat plain F-AGE is awesome. Regular plain yogurt is gross, though.

Yep - I get 'em at Costco and take 1 per day to work. Sometimes I'll throw them in a smoothie too. Last month's sale of the 15 pack for something like $10 was Awesome.

I also buy Costco's Ancient Grains granola and throw that in with the Chobani.

Chobani is a great little (or former-little) company with a feel-good story:
