*Starshine*'s Journal, 17 October 2019

The queen of home-made salad is settling nicely into eating 80% plant-based! My lunch pictured, and the same plate for my husband. Felt hungry after a few hours, but plenty of water and a few pieces of fruit seem to do the trick.

Watched the documentary "What the Health!", which quashed even more myths I'd be taught about protein. (More learned from the documentary "Diet Fiction" on Netflix, too). Learning about the meat industry is enough to put anyone off meat. I'm not quite ready to be vegetarian yet, but I'm certainly minimizing the animal products.

Such a turnaround from my previous high-protein diet, where I ate a ton of meat, fish, and dairy. Now going for protein from sources like vegetables, beans, grains, and pulses. Feeling MUCH better in every way!

That's so awesome! :D and yeah, factory farms are beyond horrific. But there are an increasing number of sustainably-managed small farms, with happy animals raised on pasture - and super tasty plant-based / cell-based meats - consumers will drive the shift!
