    Although Id recommend light version, ie, tuna instead of salmon, chicken instead of red meat and skimmed milk instead of the normal semi/1%/full fat tripe.

    I'd say the dairy would cause the most issues, due to whatever they're doing to cows milk these days.

    Thanks :)

    I've actually experienced nothing, except a bit of constipation. Going to up my veg intake again and that'll hopefully sort it out.

    I have actually noticed a few beneficial things, the biggest one being that my migraines have disappeared and also almost all of my stomach bloating has gone!

    Really interesting to hear your reasons for going back to meat. I have never eaten meat because I don't like it and dairy gives me health problems so being vegan is easy for me. I definitely agree with you about the way veganism is portrayed and as soon as someone finds out they immediately judge you. I hope this goes well for you!

    When I lived at home my mum would try and get me to eat it, before I even knew what meat was I didn't like it.
