Amadeus - I've just been reading the Eades' latest book, _The Protein
Power Lifeplan_ - they talk about how many people think paleolithic
humans ate pretty low-fat meat compared to modern meat eaters, but
this would only be true if they ate only the muscle meat as we tend
to do, but they ate the entire animal, everything that was edible -
so that it was actually higher fat than we previously thought.

So if you don't eat meat and you don't eat cereals, what do you eat?
And what do you eat for protein?

I call my previous low-fat vegetarian diet low-protein because it was
- I was on the McDougall plan and he specifically says that too much
protein is bad. I didn't eat much tofu or other things that
vegetarians commonly eat for protein - it was indeed a low-protein
diet and I think that in itself may have helped set me up for
cravings.
