Cutting out meat does help fight urges and sexual thoughts.

Hm, interesting.

 

Same here when I eat a lot I feel it more

 

I've been vegetarian for almost a couple weeks, now and I think it's really helping me too. I just feel...better. More...clean? Lol. I'm not really sure how to explain the feeling. Maybe it's just that meat makes me feel bloated? I've already lost a bunch of weight, too, which is always nice.

 

Unnecessarily extreme to cut out meat. Missing out on too many crucial nutrients.

 

I've heard that, too and also the whole soy boy (soy protein lowers test levels) meme. I use to believe it, myself, until I found out that there are a small minority of real men out there that are vegans or vegetarians. Maybe I'm wrong about them only being a minority, but I've seen way too much stuff on the internet involving leftist vegan protests. I wanted to try this diet for a while, but as we both know, low test in males is a SERIOUS issue. I know believe in other issues that are causing low test levels. Not only that, but these types of people are incapable of considering that they may be wrong so I figured I'd do what they can't and consider I may have been wrong. If there are any negative consequences, however, I'll be sure to make a thread on it.

 

My urges are still really strong lol. I've noticed that carbs do it, for me. I was trying a keto diet+fasting for a while there and my urges were barely even there. I wonder why it affects one person one way and another another way?

 

Yeah, when I was doing keto (high fat meats) I didn't have too bad of urges, but I mean, I'm way further along now, so that could be the problem.

 

Thank you. I have been trying to get this message out for a while!

Same applies to junk food and overeating.

 

Like this thread. Nice post.
Do you think it’s not necessarily a direct correlation to sexual thoughts but instead maybe an attention or focus issue?

For example here in the us after thanksgiving (which is a high meat meal) most of us find it hard to concentrate , stay awake, do stuff. The meat is more difficult to break down than lentils or rice for example so or body works harder. While trying to focus at work after a steak meal we normally document the same problems.

So in other words if your are trying to focus on “abstinence” after eating meat—- that certainly would be harder. But frankly , anything would be harder at that point.

I have been vegetarian, and vegan for a few months before and I liked it for mental clarity—- we would detox for 5-7 days only juices too, to get the same result. Also enemas and hydrotherapy to detoxify.

I don’t have the self-will to do that presently, but I am definitely going to get to my ideal weight.

 

Well you look shiny and healthy so great. There might also be some nasty stuff in factory farmed meat.
I have cut out beef as it causes a huge amount of greenhouse gases.
