You could always do protien shakes eggs and multivitimans. You probably get cravings when you don't get the right nutrition.

I don't do meat substitutions because it just makes you want the original. Also I think it's pretty fair morally if you buy expensive the free range eggs.

I don't like eggs at all. I tried vitamans when trying not to eat meat before and it didn't work for me. Protien shakes sound really disgusting as well lol.

I am a "meat and potatoes" type guy who has struggled throughout his life to expand past that. I'm not one because of lack of effort, I was just meant to be a carnivore and try as I may, I have not been able to fully overcome that. I was married for years and my wife loved to eat all kinds of food, so I tried to expand my options, but I just plain don't like sushi, most thai food, most vegies etc.

Over the years I have expanded though, initially not likeing any vegies, mushrooms etc. I do like broccoli now, string beans, brussel sprouts, mushrooms (just a few kinds though) etc.

Still dont' do any mayo, humos, pretty much any indian food, don't like sushi, sweat potatoes/yams, cranberries (or sauce), turkey (though I can eat it but prefer chicken so much more) etc.

I love food so much, just....so limited on the kinds I actually enjoy/can eat. Melted yellow cheeses (not the color, so white cheder still counts) make me actually sick. It's crazy. I can eat those cheeses if they are not melted but something changes when you melt them (I'm fine with swiss/mozz/provolone etc).

Now that i'm diabetic I have to avoid carbs as well, cutting out most pizza/pasta/breads etc. Without meats....ugh......luckily I have found some healthy alternatives.
