I was vegetarian for almost 20 years,
I started when I was 6 off and on, then finally went full vegetarian. The only thing to watch out for is that it’s easy to eat lots of bad for you stuff and think, “But it’s vegetarian!” That still leaves cheese pizza, ice cream, twice baked potatoes…LOL! If you don’t eat healthy foods, you can still be unhealthy as a vegetarian.
Congratulations on doing this! Best wishes for good health!

Very True
Agreed. Greasy pizza, and movie theatre popcorn with extra butter – is not the ideal vegetarian diet, or any diet for that matter. I guess when I was referring to a healthier diet I was thinking – more fresh fruits and carrot sticks, less hamburger and pork chops.
That’s great that you’ve had this diet since you were six! I tried when I was younger, but my mother sabotaged me every time.
And thanks so much for the encouragement! Best of wishes to your health as well :).
