Eating game

Add me to the list of impressionable folks who've altered their diet after watching docofilm "The Game Changers" on Netflix.

The main reason I'm doing so is not because I believe I have a better shot at becoming a super athlete. It's 'cos the makers convinced me it will improve my circulation and heart health.

I'm not going full vegan.

I've cut out meat completely and switched from moo juice to soy milk. But I'm not ready to give up eggs or the occasional bit of cheese yet.

And it's only been a week.

Previously, the longest I lasted on a vegetarian diet was three months, after I began suffering dizzy spells my GP couldn't explain. (Note: my iron level was fine.) So there's plenty of time to fail.

I have to say, though, that it feels easier than before, and I'm enjoying the meals more. The nutritional science has progressed and likewise the supermarket/restaurant options.

I reckon I can stick with it :-)
