cannot live without meat

Meat Addiction.

Is there such a thing? Today is good Friday and as Catholic, it has been a tradition to not eat meat on this day. As meat is always part of festive celebration and today is the day of crucifixion, it was not a day to celebrate. My husband is a meat lover, a super meat lover. He thinks that he has a big problem today because he cannot eat meat.

He thinks that he will not be able to maket it through the day physically without eating meat. That he will lose his strength. Or probably his sanity

I told him that at the end of the day it is all up to you and the Lord. Whether you eat meat or not. As for me, I hold that sacrifice in my heart.

Could he eat fish instead? Or is fish also off limits in your religion.

I love veggies so I can go any day without meat. I used to be a vegetarian and for a while a vegan.

I did not eat meat today. Thanks for the reminder I won't eat meat Friday either. I had spinach salad instead. We can make it without meat but have to fight the killer hunger.

I found out that eating meat every day is not healthy. I am worried because I can't live without meat.

maybe your husband can eat eggs,I also love meat,but no meat in a day is not problem.If lack of meat for a week,then i will feel uncomfortable.I think my tolerance to lack of meat only can last one week.
