An all veggie diet is healthier for women because they can supplement their loss of protein with soy. That is not healthy for men.

With all due respect - you're not in the weight loss dynasty thread and you're not a weight-loss expert. "Eat more and exercise more" isn't going to help someone that wants or needs to lose a significant amount of weight lose that weight.
And the changes PilotMan is making aren't part of a "fad diet" - they're part of a lifestyle change and a change in his relationship with food.
"Meat here or there" isn't an unhealthy lifestyle necessarily. It may work better for some people than for others.
