So my best friend is a vehement vegan. Gets after me for eating meat and wearing leather. I actually have a medical thing where I need meat proteins. My best friend didn't believe me. We went camping, which we have done in the past. She packed only vegan meals. I thought I'd give it a try. Within a couple days I collapsed. She tried it again, but not camping, though I was staying with her and didn't have a car. Collapsed again. Now she believes me AND my doctors note. I'm actually prescribed 6 oz of animal protein per day.
You could eat plant protein, just saying, it's a matter of knowing what to eat and managing your diet effectively. There's nothing in meat that can't also be found in plants. But I'm sorry that she tried to force you and harmed your health in the process, that was pretty stupid of her.
