Thought I would report back on how it is going, transitioning from being a long-time lacto-vegetarian to becoming a meat-eater.
All that elation a few weeks ago about being in the process of flying over the mountain of meat... Gone.
My health is suffering. I ended up in the hospital for a day last week, with bowel problems, severe pain and blood pressure 200/90.
Apart from a few bacon rashers since the start of my transition, I have not been eating other meat. I struggle keeping eggs down. Since the hospital business, I stir a teaspoon of lard into vegetable stews every now and then, and that is it.
Both my daughters-in-law are vegetarians, the one a bit more flexible adding fish to her diet sometimes. The other one, a very strict vegetarian, told me yesterday: "I would never advise anybody to become a vegetarian. Some nutrients the human body need can only be had by eating animal products." She knows this, but, like me, cannot break away from the vegetarian lifestyle because of the body's reactions.
Both my sons grew up as vegetarians, but they started eating meat in their late teens and I am so glad that I never tried to prevent them from this. (The oldest still worries about karma, eating meat.) I have two grandsons, who grew up vegetarians up till about the age of six, and then recently I started encouraging the parents to allow them to eat meat if they want to (they encounter meat when visiting friends), and told them about the research that the great health (body and spirit) of vegetarianism is a myth. Being a kind of matriarch of the family, what I think ususally carries some weight and I am glad that perhaps I prevented these two young children from lots of problems later in life (I hope!), like what I am going through at this stage of my life finding transition nearly impossible (at present anyway). If they, or one of them, insist on becoming vegetarians later in life, that will be their choice and their path.
It is going to be a long haul for me, but I've resigned myself to the fact that becoming a meat-eater cannot be done in a couple of weeks or months when you have been a vegetarian for a long time. For now, I will concentrate on acquiring the taste for lard only. If I never advance beyond lard, that will have to do! Luckily I have never stopped eating (and liking) butter.
I have now got all the ingredients for a Keto Flan - Mr. Premise gave the fat bomb this much "tastier" name - and will give that a try. But the thought of eating all those eggs... Nevertheless, I will give it a go.

Made my first batch of the custard. Came out pretty good for the first time. I think next time I will add a little salt. But "Fat Bomb" sounds kind of disgusting and undigestable, so I am renaming it "Keto Flan."
I have been anxious to transition because I want to evolve. I thought I have to scale that mountain of meat that is blocking my way back to the stage I was at before becoming a vegetarian.
But now I have the following to contemplate - it seems that some people do not require meat to evolve, they can follow an "adjacent plan" (for instance, adding animal fat to an otherwise vegetarian diet, as in my case?):
Session 4 April 2015:
A: For many, the transition in diet is either not possible due to epigenetic factors, or must be undertaken very, very slowly. For some, the requirements for carbohydrates is higher. They need to fulfill this need as safely as possible. In this case, the individual has intuited the relationship and should do some experimental adjustments adding root type vegetables and some greens and berries.
Q: (L) What you're saying, I think, is that for some people, transitioning to functioning on ketones is much more difficult for a variety of reasons?
A: Yes
Q: (L) So, the ketogenic diet is not ultimately desirable for everyone?
A: No
Q: (Galatea) But then that also leads to the question about how being on a ketogenic diet helps you evolve and raise your FRV, and make you super-smart and strong?
(Chu) The path to transformation and all that...
(L) Are you saying that the people who can't do the ketogenic diet that they...
(Galatea) They can't evolve, or they can do it another way?
A: It is helpful to evolving and FRV for those who require it. For some, it is required that they follow an adjacent plan. There is a great range of individual types. As you may have noticed, the ketogenic path is very difficult and a challenge even for the people it is right for. Some others have a bit more leeway and less struggle. And in answer to your next question, indeed there is something like karma involved.
Q: (L) So are you suggesting that those of us who need the ketogenic diet have karma to pay off? That we're being tortured? [laughter] We were gluttons in past lives or something?
A: Close enough! But aren't you glad that a path is available?
Q: (L) Well, that leads to the question: You also once said that the development of the soul is married to the genetics. Is there something involved with that in this?
A: Yes
Q: (L) So... I mean, I'm just trying to get myself out of the hole here.
(Pierre) If in past lives, say you were addicted to carbs. So, in a past live that's your soul. Now you incarnated in a new body, and there will be a transitioning program where you can go from there to somewhere else. Or perhaps your soul resonated to a different profile in the previous life and you followed the wrong path and now have to compensate. And now, after 5D review, it will resonate with this DNA profile...
(Perceval) I think their previous comment was that souls marries to genetics if present. So, what you're thinking of is that for the soul to absolve itself or remove this karmic debt, that it picked a body with a specific set of genetics that required...
(L) That enables you to do that. Or to fulfill a specific mission?
(Perceval) Yeah.
(L) Is that kinda getting close?
A: Yes
And how does a "mostly vegetarian" person prevent becoming a tasty morsel for shadowy entities? Eat more garlic? Perhaps there is some truth to the myth about vampires not liking garlic?
