I think i'm meat intolerant and no one will believe me, i get really big stomache aches after eating meat and I get bloated go to the toilet a lot, mostly with burgers and saugues. I have a weird diet as it is mosly diary eg pizza, cheese sandwiches, bread, cereal with lots of milk. I seem to loovve milk and diet coke. but meat drives me nuts. I like the taste its yummy
Thin sliced meats are easier on my stomache and chicken soup doesn't do much, it can be soothing sometimes.
No one will believe me, my mum is strange and objected to my thearpists surgestions that i should add veggie burgers into my diet again as she said they smell when their cooked. She stops me from having a lot of food with spices or something because they 'smell' its not fair.
My niece who's a baby, my sister has just discovered she lactose intorant and getting all the milk alternatives for her..everyone accepts that because she crys when she eats milk or has a rash or something.
Everyone in my family are against vegetarians saying its a waste, and u need protein.
I am so fustrated! When i move out i guess i wont be afraid to buy 'smelly meals'
help!

I was a meat cutter, and I am slightly meat intolerant, I do like a good
steak or burger, but can only eat meat a couple of times each week.
I would avoid ground meat, as its likely to be ground using dirty
equipment, and if you only eat meat occasionally, get a prime cut, not
the cheaper cuts that are of lower quality, and are most likely gristly
and not trimmed of excess fat, that might make meat alittle more
enjoyable for you.

I know three people, all of them women, who find that eating meat (animal muscle tissue) makes them physically sick. One of them loves the smell and taste of it. She'll cook, for example, a leg of lamb or some chops for her family's dinner, and sometimes she can't resist a few bites, but she suffers for it afterward.
Poultry doesn't bother her as much, and she can eat small quantities of hamburger mince and sausage now and then, without ill effect.
You don't have to buy commercially-made vegiburgers. They are fairly easy to make from readily-available ingredients, like chickpeas, cracked wheat, etc. They can be as spicy or bland as you like. And they taste incredibly good on a big toasted bread roll with a bit of lettuce and tomato.
If you normally eat a lot of wheaten products, you might consider adding in a variety of other grains or starches, and see how you go with them.
I don't know if anecdotal information of this kind will do much to persuade your family. But it is true that everyone has his or her unique biochemistry, and what succeeds brilliantly for one could be a total disaster for another.
Anyway, good luck!  |

I can't eat meat either, it makes me so sick. Doesn't matter what kind of cut or what type.
I can eat a bit of chicken and turkey but even then too much upsets my stomach.
I usually eat a special kind of veggiburger my grandmother (not the one I live with) buys me when I visit her (she buys a bunch so I have a box or two at all times to bring home)
Same problem in my family, a lot of them don't believe me and I actually had the issue at a family gathering where others were on non-meat diets and ate all my veggiburgers then proceeded to tell me just to eat a regular burger as I was a teen and had no reason to eat the non-meat ones. |

| Eating problems seem to be fairly common here; although I'm somewhat reversed, I can't eat vegetables of any kind (unless its processed and turned into french fries, although I didn't even like those when I was young). |

| try poultry and fish. It could be red meat intolerance or that your stomach turns from the fat. Also, it can take several weeks for new intake receptors to colonize in the intestinal wall (long story). The extra protein and amino acids would be great food for lower intestinal microbes. Also, too much protein can cause kidney damage. |

The same thing happens to my sister. I always used to think that she was being vain, but after many years, I now know that she really can't tolerate meat.

I am exactly like that. I haven't always been this bad, just got worse as I hit my twenties and into my thirties. I eat a lot of venison as it is lean and does not bother me. i must limit how much beef I eat, and try to keep it lean. I think the fat is the problem. Fatty chicken or turkey bother me, and any battered or fried meat is out of the question.
I can eat lean slices of meat, boneless skinless chicken or turkey, eggs in moderation, but no sausage (fat and spicy). I stay away from processed meats (fats and filler stuff added). I think it is some how related to our genetic makeup as Aspies and how we are able to digest foods.
lean fish is also good. vegetarian is not necessarily the answer. Oh, and food preparation makes all the difference in the world. I can eat some foods cooked by wife in olive oil but not at a restaurant where there preparation will have lots of fats and oils. |

Try one type of food/remove at a time to see what is that messes you up ?
most meats have alot of werid bugs that's why you cook it it kills 99.99 of them. I stopped drinking diet soft drinks the fake sugars would make me feel werid.
No doz is a good caffine replacement i find. You can get pill cutter to get 100 millgram at a time doses. |

I eliminated all caffeine and carbonated beverages also. Anything natural seems to be easier to digest. Small amounts of fruit juice and lots of water. It took some getting used to (withdrawals just like other drugs), but I feel so much better it was worth giving up my partner, my Dr. Pepper that went everywhere with me.
The most effective way to find out what bothers you is to go on a hypo allergenic diet and gradually add in foods one at a time and see if they bother you. |

I always get a bit upset to my stomach when I eat fried chicken. My mom's meat loaf does an even worse job on my stomach. Some greasy sausages upset me too. It is so bad that I would rather not eat anything than eat those meals.
I think it is mainly the amount of grease rather than the meat itself. I can eat chicken. I don't particularly like chicken, but I can eat it, only fried chicken turns my stomach.
I eat beef and other meats relatively regularly, but certain ones (like BK and McD burgers) seem too rich and fatty and I just can't eat them. I tend to eat less meat than everyone else in my family and prefer to eat more of the other dishes.
Humans only need a small amount of protein in their diet about 50 grams a day for female, 70 for male.
Even a vegetarian is virtually guaranteed to get enough protein if they eat enough calories.
You like dairy and bread and cereals. Dairy products are actually good sources of protein, so if you like eating dairy and bread, do that and toss in some others like nuts, corn, rice, various veggies to make up for the lower amount of methionine in dairy products.
Basically don't sweat not eating meat. Try and get your mom to include other food in the meals if they are mostly the meat dish. They don't have to be vegetarian meat substitutes, but just some good old fashioned vegetables, bread, rice, nuts, and such. Everyone should be eating a more varied diet anyway. |
