I feel the exact same! I love certain things, but do I just love them for the taste? Im not sure! But I've been trying to implement more plant based stuff into my regimen for the past 2 months or so. And I honestly feel better. It might be completely mental, but knowing that I'm trying to do better for the environment in general counteracts it. I have not stopped eating meat (I was raised with steak being the dinner protein for almost 12 years) but I am trying to minimize my meat intake for more plant based substitutes. Every recipe has been delicious from edgy veg or merle o neal.
