Eating meat is good for the body. If I tell you wetin I dey eat consistently and how many each day, you sef go shout. The koko is to have the finances and maintain a good exercise regimen.

Nothing wrong with eating enormous amount of meat.

➜She always talk about how she can buy like like 5-10 chicken at once, stock them in the freezer and finish it in no time. She has said the same thing about goat too. How I should buy a full goat, slaughter and butcher and stock them in the freezer so she can eat as much as she want.
Should I also add that she eats a lot. In fact, as a man, I don't eat half of what she eats. She can eat even up to 5 times in a day or more, and always with plenty of meat.
Is this something I should overlook? Because I don't want someone to come and over stress me tomorrow. Life is already stressing me, not to talk of going into marriage with such behaviour that someone would now put it on me to be killing 5 chickens and 1 goat every week for home use. Please advise me. Thank you.
She seems to have been regularly announcing that if you cannot afford to give her protein with every meal, you should show yourself the door out of the relationship. She wants a diet that is lush with protein, and she will not settle for less. undecided

What other advice would you like us to give, except that you should listen to her and know that you may be in over your head, as your head already perceives? huh

➜Where you go jam glutton na grin grin..... She even goes back to the pot to take more meats after grin.
She was probably brought up that way or picked up the nasty attitude all by herself and you have to find out which is which before you reck yourself finally if eventually you both get married.
Her background has to be very comfortable if she was brought up that way at home because I know very well no average Nigerian family will ever tolerate that from their children and if she happens to come from the pako background with this attitude then there's serious trouble and a big red flag for later days...
Yes, I very much understand that the average Nigerian diet is not stacked as far as proteins are concerned, but a diet high in proteins is not glutenous. It is considered, for the most part, a healthier option than the average Nigerian diet. undecided

➜Why on earth 🌎 will you eat foods without anything?? I prefer to starve myself than eating it
. The average Nigerian does exactly that and has come to think it is OK to eat primarily carbohydrates all day long. lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

Greetings to you all.

Please is this something I should overlook? She does not eat any food if chewable stuff are not in the food...beef, chicken, fish etc. I mean she is so obsessive with chewable stuff and it's becoming very annoying to me.

Although I never caught her red-handed but I suspect sometimes after cooking, she does go back to pick meat from the pot. I'm suspecting this because almost always, meat always finish from the pot while the soup is still plenty.

Whether we are moving within town or traveling, she always want to buy any meaty stuff sold by the road...snail, pork, chicken and just anything meaty to chew.

Last night, when we returned home from work, surprisingly the stew that was in the freezer, there was no meat in it and so she refused to eat the food.

She always talk about how she can buy like like 5-10 chicken at once, stock them in the freezer and finish it in no time. She has said the same thing about goat too. How I should buy a full goat, slaughter and butcher and stock them in the freezer so she can eat as much as she want.

Visit her and observe how she eats at her place, if she does it at moderation at her end, then she is just an opportunist.

Use your head and run off

Lolz. This is your girlfriend seem like an interesting human being.
She likes meat. It's a good thing.
I bet she likes your meat too. Lol.

But the important thing is that she eats with steeze. Not the type that will be eating and oil will be drooling from the sides of her mouth or from hand to her elbow.

I have been seeing this thread but chose to ignore cos the topic looks anyhow but opened it today to discover it's actually very funny. Bros it's better if you open shrine and be serving the gods daily with different animals than this one you're heading towards. Or she's one of the deities? Be careful oo 😂

And for those wondering about the health implications, heavy consumption of meat becomes a big deal only as you get older or overweight and start worrying about high cholesterol and clogged arteries.

Asians tend to have higher levels of Stomach Cancer due to their excess amount of salt intake (most of their foods are preserved and cooked in heavy amounts of salt e.g Korean kimchi).

So it's not the 2 small pieces of meat and 1 scrawny chicken leg that we eat here, maybe 3 times a week, that will cause any of that. Heck, how many of you eat egg daily??

Nigerians eat a lot of carbohydrates to cover the fact that they're not eating enough protein or vegetables or even fruit (for example, apparently Banana is now more expensive than plantains cry). Which is why we can be short and fat here, with round stomach.

Eating like the way we do is why the average Nigerian height is 5"8.
5'8? It used to be around 5'5 for guys and 5'3 for ladies as of 2021. Guess we're gradually getting taller on average

➜That little piece of meat or fish that she eats is the only way she would get protein and it's more essential than all the carbs that you feed her with.
NB: Beans is more carbohydrate than protein
Make you help us tell them oo! sad
