I read on your blog that you consider a life "well-lived" if one uses that life to do a lot of good and little evil and tries to reduce the amount of suffering in this world.<br /><br />I'm not an expert on how conventionally farmed chickens live, but from a friend who is a veterinarian and friends who are vegan I've heard that the conventional meat industry causes a lot of suffering to animals, especially to chickens.<br /><br />I'm sure you are aware of these concerns, yet you chose to eat chicken and other meat. Why?<br /><br />With respect,<br />JohannesJohannes Starkehttp://cfsrecoveryproject.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821345570811107481.post-25854756436038810002012-09-03T21:43:45.095-07:002012-09-03T21:43:45.095-07:00I get really sleepy and sluggish if I eat too much...I get really sleepy and sluggish if I eat too much at lunch. That's one of the reasons I really don't like going out to eat for lunch. I try to bring something light and simple, maybe take a walk during lunch then snack on a piece of fruit or nuts during the late afternoon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821345570811107481.post-50908180756123411592012-09-03T18:07:00.184-07:002012-09-03T18:07:00.184-07:00Another indispensable tool for efficient cooking i...Another indispensable tool for efficient cooking is the crock pot. You add the ingredients in the morning, and when you come home, dinner is served. Plus, if you have a big enough pot, you have some left over. <br /><br />I've made chili on a Sunday afternoon, and had meals for almost a whole week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821345570811107481.post-64217551985556185622012-09-01T23:03:42.381-07:002012-09-01T23:03:42.381-07:00Some of my co-workers go out for lunch almost ever...Some of my co-workers go out for lunch almost every day. I'm not sure how they do that! <br /><br />I get so tired and feel uncomfortably heavy if I go out for lunch and am not as productive as when I have something quick and light. <br /><br />Aside from the calories it's also so expensive! <br /><br />Normally I bring either sliced turkey breast or a few pieces of chicken breast I cooked the night before. I might have a small baked potato or small piece of bread with that. Later in the afternoon I'll have an orange to keep me going. <br /><br />The other benefit of not going out for lunch is you can leave a little bit of time to take a short walk around the parking lot after eating. <br /><br />p.s. If you bring canned tuna to work, you might want to be careful about eating it at your cube. It doesn't have the best odor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821345570811107481.post-13887994489085386592012-08-31T23:15:13.218-07:002012-08-31T23:15:13.218-07:00Sure.

I would like to buy a few grocery items and keep them in the office kitchen so I don't have to pack a lunch every morning. I'm trying to stay away from carbs to avoid the subsequent post-lunch crash.
