I eat meat every day with lunch and supper.
I eat red meat... when the family buys red meat. Which is at least once a week.

If fish counts, I have tuna every day, and chicken almost every day. Healthy meat is awesome.

Also, Bacon. I think thats all I need to say.

I don't eat it daily. It's usually either in steak form (which doesn't happen often enough) or is in gyro form (which, at best, happens twice a week). I don't eat pork because it's the worst meat I can have (I retain water like a champion and pork is saltyasfuck).

OT: I love meat. White or Red, Lean or Lovely, Strips or Steaks, Legs or Wings. If I can kill it by golly will find some sort of edible part of it.
Hahahaha! Gold star for you, sir.

Probably daily. I have a lot of cooking knowledge so there are days where I just happen to make something awesome without meat in it (probably some mushroom-heavy pasta sauce with quite a bit of good olive oil so the fat won't be missed) but usually everything is better with a bit or a lot of meat added to it.

Today I made a cream-based Mac n cheese-inspired pasta sauce with thick bacon, smoked ham and sausages :D. Oh and there were vegetables too, red/green bell peppers, mushrooms, onions and half a habanero...but all of them were there to simply counter the cheese and cream more so than make the sauce healthier or anything :D.
Come to my house and cook bro.

Sure, what will you be having? :D

2-3 times a day. Meat is always included in my lunch and dinner. I eat sandwiches for breakfast, so whether I eat meat then as well depends on what I feel like putting on my sandwiches.

I'd say I eat meat four or five times a week.

I'm very picky about what meats I eat. I eat chicken, beef and pork (including bacon and gammon, pig, basically) and nothing else. No rabbit, duck, venison, pheasant and I don't eat any fish.
Because I only three type of meat I don't really eat them that often. Eating meat each night for dinner would mean I eat all three at least twice a week, one of them three times. If I included meat in my lunch as well, my diet would be very boring indeed. So I mix in various "vegetarian" meals to keep my taste buds on edge.

I would have to say I eat some type of meat almost once every day. Unless I'm playing games the whole time. Then it's Mountain Dew and something quick to eat!

I practice my carnivorous rights many times a day. :) In fact, I just finished polishing off a chicken sandwich for breakfast!

I have eaten pigs, cows, chicken, fish, bear, deer, gator, squirrel, rabbit, lamb, ox, and probably cat. (At least, thats what the take out chicken looks like from our local chinese eatery) Theres probably more I have eaten, and I just cant think about it.

I eat meat for every meal (Yes including breakfast, usually in the form of a Beef Stew or Beef/Ham pasta)

Now I have a craving for some meat paste sandwiches...

There are no times when I have a meal without meat in, heck even most of my snacks include a steak pie or sausage roll...

Here is some scientific literature for you to read, courtesy of The American Dietetic Association:

"Vegetarian diets tend to be lower in saturated fat and cholestrol, and have higher levels of dietary fiber, magnesium and potassium, vitamins C and E, folate, carotenoids, flavonoids, and other phytochemicals.

Vegetarian diets are often associated with a number of health advantages, including lower blood cholestrol levels, lower risk of heart disease [as a side note, heart disease accounts for more than 25% of annual deaths in the USA], lower blood pressure levels, and lowever risk of hypertension and type two diabetes. Vegetarians tend to have a lower body mass index (BMI) and lower overall cancer rates [a further 25% of annual deaths in the USA]."

They also note that a well planned vegetarian diet is suitable for all individuals during all stages of life including infancy/pregnancy/adolescence and for athletes, and that vegetarians easily meet and exceed protein requirements.
The American diabetic association also recommends that people with diabetes eat whole grains with their meals. Food which has little nutritional value and is a guaranteed way to jack up blood sugar. You know, the thing that diabetics have to take insulin for so they don't die. I wouldn't put much stock in anything they say to be honest.

As to the health benefits of vegetarian diets, they don't come from cutting out meat. Most vegetarians I've ever met do it for health reasons, and by extension, also remove refined sugar from their diet and either reduce or eliminate breads and pastas. High carbohydrate diets are responsible for a lot of long term health conditions, including heart disease and type 2 diabetes. In fact, reducing meat consumption can't reduce the risk of getting type 2 diabetes as it's caused by constantly spiking blood sugar beyond safe levels. Something meat can't do in a normal human being, only carbohydrates can, sugar and wheat being the biggest culprits.

I was on the Dukin diet a while ago(and I'm starting again soon for summer.) which is a protein diet without carbs. And it mentioned how well done steak is harder to digest, making your body get less energy out of it which meant it was slimming. It was a good diet. I lost 25 kgs. I'm running it again in the hopes of getting to a flat stomach or maybe just a little potbelly. I was eating beef, chicken and fish. In my experience red meat can be very slimming. (except pork. Is that a red meat anyway?) it's all in how you cook it and what part of the animal your eating.
Cooking meat longer does make it take longer to fully digest, but that's not what made you lose weight. Cutting the carbs did that. The only thing cooking it longer will do is delay your body getting the nutrients from the meat. Perhaps one of the biggest problems in the popular conception of how to lose weight these days is in the idea of it being a simple matter of calories in and calories out, but that isn't the case. Calories do matter in the sense that you shouldn't be eating too much of anything, but a 2,000 calorie diet made up of mostly meat and fat with some carbs from fruit and vegetables is going to have a much different effect on weight than the same number of calories with 500-600 of them coming from sugar, or even breads and grains. The latter will cause an increase in blood glucose beyond what the body can immediately burn, forcing the body to release insulin and store the excess glucose that we can't burn right away as fat. The former diet won't spike blood sugar beyond what we can efficiently burn, and therefore won't require the release of insulin to keep a person from dying.

Pretty much every single day (lunch and dinner) even if was just a small amount like pizza toppings. I never really had a day were I had no meat at all.

Australian here, I'm sure SOME days I go without meat... but from memory I have it at least once a day.
