I was told that the mayor of LA banned walking today, BUT I had me a REALLY good reason.
@sinbach cheat day?
@bethany nope! cheese burger with saladwrap. no bun. america is so great right now. everywhere you go - EVERYONE KNOWS exactly what you are doing when you say "no bun" and they make suggestions for cool sides. i was at a restaurant the other day - broccoli and cheese, cheese curds, green beans, pepper poppers, etc were all offered as a replacement to fries.
@sinbach have you been? Did you like it?
@bethany you are seriously my favorite vegetarian to ever walk the earth, but seriously - NEVER. vegan restaurants? not in this life time. this restaurant put up a sign at the beginning of the pandemic that said, "if you come to our restaurant and we know that you are supposed to be on quarantine, we will call the police and report you." that was a double strike.
i bet they like cats better than dogs.
three strikes.
@sinbach okay no. I have to change that. I'll get you to a good vegan place sometime. As for the cats Vs dogs... I'll not comment. That will be another pineapple on pizza conversation
@MaryMamuzich i love you even more!
@sinbach you may turn me into a "garbage gut" yet.
@MaryMamuzich @sinbach ... it's difficult to see people stray so far from the light
@MaryMamuzich @sinbach and you should enjoy it! Unashamedly. I think if people care enough to be conscious about what they're eating, and it works for them... more power to you
@bethany So you eat vegan? How long have you done that?
@daniel For about four years.. though if I'm eating out (or especially at someone's home) I'm not regimented about it
@bethany That's pretty good and long enough to know if it's for you. The wife and I recently started eating that way for preventive health reasons, and like you, we just eat what we're offered if we're at someone's house. A couple of cheat days a month isn't terrible. We did HFLC for a while, but have seen several of our friends who were very strict on keto come down with cancers or heart issues at a young age. My blood work wasn't ideal, here's hoping this is better!
@daniel yeah totally agree. I think in a lot of ways it's trial and error - what works for one person doesn't always work for another. You'll have to keep me updated on how you guys get on!
@bethany Sure thing! We just ate Chick-fil-A🤦♂️
@bethany you might remember them?

@bethany and depends on the place. so many college towns and trendy hangouts are full of vegan menus. it is a religion in some places. in Discovery Bay we have a restaurant that ONLY serves vegan. if you want non-vegan, they tell you to go some place else.
