Are you pretty much a "meat with every meal" person? Do you feel healthy?

I usually have meat with dinner, and sometimes at lunch too.
I would be considered 'unhealthy' because I'm overweight (even though for the most part I 'feel' healthy) but the meat doesn't have much to do with that since most of what we eat meat wise is lean meats like chicken.

I'm also notorious for picking every bit of fat off my meat that I can find, because I hate the taste of it. x_x

I eat meat pretty often and consider myself pretty healthy. Now it's not every single meal like breakfast, lunch AND dinner... but practically every day for dinner, sometimes for breakfast if I feel up to cooking bacon or something like that (though not all that often), and sometimes for lunch if I'm in the mood for it.

I chose other because I don't necessarily eat meat meat at every meal but I do have to have some protein with my food or else my body produces to much insulin due to the sugars in the carbs. I still have weight to lose but its always been a struggle for me.

I probably eat meat at every meal but I'm overweight and am not really healthy at the moment.

For lunch and dinner yes, pretty rarely for breakfast. I'm in good shape, and my meat eating habits aren't the reason I'm not in great shape (lazy)

I don't eat meat with every meal but I'm pretty okay with how healthy I am, I wouldn't say I'm unhealthy

Eh, it's my life. I'm only 20 and it sucks being so exhausted sometimes but I know I'll bounce back eventually. For the semester, it's rough... I'm taking 16 credits, am the VP of my GSA, treasurer of social work club, and work anywhere from 16-30 hours a week at a gas station/convenience store/food place where "the kitchen is always open" (it's the chain of 450 or so stores that rhymes with something you put on your bed for those of you in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, or North Carolina)... But I'm managing it for now and just keep telling myself that someday I'll have my big girl 40 hour a week job and won't need to worry about all of this anymore.

My partner and I used to try to very consciously limit our meat consumption, and would have regular vegetarian weeks where we would not eat meat at all. But my partner is pregnant (!) and was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and has been on a low carb diet, which makes it very difficult to eat without meats. I know it can be done, but trying to get the same amount of protein/carb ratio in meals is very hard with any veggie protein sources. So we've pretty much had to go mostly back to eating meat. I'm sure once that's over we will go back to being more conscious about our meat intake.

I think cutting down on meat generally makes me feel healthier (especially cutting way down on processed and red meats), and either way I think ethically/environmenta lly there are tons of good reasons to limit or eliminate meat consumption altogether.

I definitely don't eat meat with every meal. I can be extremely happy eating a yummy meal with no meat. And when I do eat meat, I prefer something light like fish, sometimes chicken - not much red meat at all, it's just so heavy in my stomach.

But, I'm not a healthy person - I have lots of health problems, but they don't have anything to do with my diet or meat/protein intake.

I eat meat about 3 times a week. A porterhouse steak sounds pretty good to me right now!

I eat meat with maybe one meal per day. Somedays, I go days without meat, just depending, and I feel great.

I do not eat meat at every meal. Nowhere near that, in fact. I feel decently healthy.
