Did you know? Cam Newton the pescatarian.

A pescetarian diet excludes land animals and birds, but includes fish, mollusks, and crustaceans in addition to fruits, vegetables, plants, legumes, nuts, and grains. Eggs and dairy may or may not be present in the pescetarian's diet.

Newton summed up his diet pretty well:

 

"If it's in the sea, pretty much it will be on my plate," he said.

 

Newton also said that being a pro football player makes sticking to the diet even harder.

 

"It's been challenging at times," he said. "Especially being around the locker room where you get guys eating hot wings, nachos, hot dogs, and hamburgers all the time.

 

"Ever since I gave up the meat, I think it was March, I liked the way I was feeling and I just stuck with it ever since."

Someone asked him if he enjoyed any special seafood while he was in Miami for last weekend's game.

"I had some great Dolphin," he said with a laugh.

 

The diet seems to be working as Newton has led the Panthers to seven straight wins.

Granted this was 2013, still a pretty cool story and interesting tidbit. I did a vegan diet, only allowing cheese, for about a year. It did a lot for me.

One of my fat friends lost a ton of weight becoming a vegan. I'd never do that poo but I do need to start dieting again bc I just gained like 15 pounds after a series of unfortunate events(aka me being lazy and a glutton)

Excercise, watch your intake, and weigh yourself at least every other day. I did daily and sometimes multiple times a day to better understand my metabolism.

Yeah, we knew.

 

I've pretty much given up beef and pork (except for Thanksgiving and Christmas), and my body feels so much better. Chicken and fish are my thing, but I usually go a couple of days per week without eating meat at all.  Fresh fruits and vegetables are a staple in the house as my wife, a self-described "part-time vegan", eats lots of tomatoes, cucumbers, oranges, apples, etc. as well as beans.  She went from a size 22 to a size 4/5 in a little less than a year and a half.

    • I think a premier ILB in the Panther's tradition (Beason, Mills, Luke, Morgan) would be the best pick and the best way to improve this team. Here me out---those of you screaming for QB need to realistically approach the situation.  We are not drafting a QB early barring a late season Young meltdown.  Bryce is getting a fifth year--and he will start in 2026 and probably in 2027 barring some major meltdown.  This season has a ton of "fallen angels" or QBs with the skill set to develop into an NFL starter.   In the second or third round, you draft your possible qb of the future.  Scratch these probable first rounders: however, the next six or seven have tremendous potential, and if you draft a QB like the Packers do and develop him for 2-3 seasons, these QBs would give us an upgrade at #2 QB and 2 years to groom him in the event Bryce does not earn a huge second contract. About WR:  Coker is a solid #3 and Horn gives us a thrilling option on STs and in the slot.  He was a nice pick.  TMac needs a strong #2.  XL does not seem that interested in the job, and he seems a bit over his head in the NFL.  Yes, we could use a solid WR, but I am not sure a rookie.  I think we pinch some pennies and redo some OL contracts and make WR our biggest priority in free agency.  Draft a sleeper late. Tight End:  Do we have enough there?  I really like Mitchell, but I am not sure about Sanders and Tremble is who he is.  Do we have a threat?  I think Bryce loves his checkdowns and underneath routes--he's not had a Stud TE.  I want one.  (platonic)  They are usually still available in round 3. Safety:  Not sure we have the center fielder we need at FS.  Moehrig and Ransom might be the same thing.  And if it were not for Doc in "Back to the Future," nobody in Charlotte would ever say "Great Scott!"  We need a smart, defensive QB at S, in my opinion. Of course, OL (center, T) could be in play, but I like Mays as the starter at C and Moton could play another season or two.  We need to start grooming guards, but we have depth there now. My draft day order, by position: Linebacker  Have we ever been good without the best ILB in the NFL?  I don't think so. (3-4 now, but we run some 4-3 looks) QB #2 with long-term starting potential  (I like so many second-tier QBs.  one or two of them will become NFL starters.  Mark my words) Tight End  (lotta folks might disagree here, but a big-time, viable option to go with Mitchell, Sanders, and Tremble) Safety  (we need a QB for the D--Moehrig and Ransom are similar) Tackle (Moton is getting old and we need to start grooming a potential replacement) WR  (this late IF we sign a free agent) Center (I like Mays, but his contract status and the depth at C needs to be addressed)    
    • I would be fine with that, the kid can sling the rock.
    • Panthers open as 4.5 point favorites. You get three points for being at home so Vegas thinks we are only 1.5 points better than the one win saints..  Tells you what they think about the team and our ability to score
