I've slowly gone back, later on in life, to fish and then chicken and then, last year, red meat.
I've got a friend who's a power lifter, and she's a vegetarian. I don't know how she does it. I want red meat all the time. I applaud the discipline; I really do. I just can't do it. Good for her, but not for me.
When I'm in a restaurant, I don't eat red meat. It doesn't taste like anything. But if a friend of mine is grilling stuff at his house, its almost always great.
Sugar makes me feel crazy - like, makes my body hurt kind of a thing. I don't really eat fruit because it has a lot of sugar. I try not to eat a lot of red meat, but every now and again, I feel like I need iron or something - something that I'm missing.
Most people are like, 'Oh, you shouldn't eat steak. It's so heavy.' But I love steak the day before a meet. Or the day of. I try to get that red meat in, some extra energy.
