How to stop eating red meat
It made me
very happy
 "By far, easier than I thought!"
How I did it: I thought about giving up red meat for awhile before actually taking the plunge. I thought it would be a difficult lifestyle change, or make me feel "different" than my friends/family, but it has been SO easy! Poulty is nearly always a menu option, even at a steakhouse, or McDonalds. I have always loved animals, and I can not bring myself to watch the videos of cattle slaughter that drive some people towards this decision. I have a general understanding that it is a brutal process, and I don't need the specifics. However, choosing to give up red meat out of love for animals is just ONE reason behind my choice. The cattle industry is the #1 contributer to greenhouse gases. Beef farming and production are notoriousy bad for our environment. ...and, it is an inefficient process! The amount of grain needed each year to feed cattle for beef production could satisfy the WORLD's hunger 5 times over. Doing research, and basing my decison on facts about human health, nutrition requirements, humane practices, environmentally friendly behavior AND the desire to see the Earth's resources used more efficiently to feed an ever-growing population helped make this an easier choice for me. Lessons & tips: Research. You really own your decision when you do the research and draw your own conclusion. Don't go for the gross-out factor, and watch animals being slaughtered. Why put yourself through that? You can give up red meat without becoming an extremist. Do it for yourself, and be aware that it is your choice. If other people are interested, offer to them the knowledge you've gained, but don't force your choice on friends and family. If it is the right decison for other people, they will come to it on their own. Be happy in the knowledge that you have done a good thing for yourself, and the world. Resources: The internet. Research the idea until you feel ready to make your decision. For some it may take a day, for others it may take several months. When you are ready, you will know. Read what is out there. |

How I did it: I decided to stop eating red meat, and just stopped.For me, read meat was either something gross that was appetizing me at all, like a roast.Or it was something very unhealthy and high in calories and salt. Like sausage, bacon, fast food burgers, etc. Read how I did it…

How I did it: It was a simple matter of setting a frame of mind and sticking to it.Tell yourself you're not eating red meat,and then tell others.If they know you don't they'll probably give you weird looks at first (Esp. if you're from the beef loving land such as myself) - but they learn to accept it.

How I did it: Okay chicken is your friend. When you're all chicken'd out switch to seafood and hearty soups. I became addicted to Japanese Udon and Soba noodle soups. They feel like a heavy meal but are so good for you especially the seafood(Nabeyaki?) soup filled with scallops, squid, shrimp etc. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I haven't eaten red meat over the past year and a half (discounting slip ups when I wasn't aware that meat was in the recipe). It's not nearly as hard as some may think. Anything that you need ground beef for you can easily exchange with ground turkey meat. Read how I did it…

ok i started on july third and it has been going well so far. i haven’t had to turn down red meat yet. i’m doing this for my own health, for poor cows, and for the sake of reducing my carbon footprint. most of the iron in my diet comes from red meat. is there anything else besides protein that i’m missing by cutting red meat out? please help. and also, where else can i get iron besides spinach?
shamilto is working on her list of "things"
In college and quite a few years after I did not eat red meat, but I have for the past few years. I am going to try to limit the red meat in our house and eventually cut it out totally.
courtneyloppie is feeling good
Its been 2 weeks since I ate red meat.. all i eat is turkey or chicken. I even cook my bf steaks and pork chops but Im not even tempted to eat it myself
1 and a half year ago i decided to stop eating red meat. So I did. I have not eaten anything red since, and i have never been tempted. I eat chicken and seafood. I will NEVER eat red meat again, its not good for your body or your brain :)
courtneyloppie is feeling good
I just dont want it eat it anymore. I never eat supper until around 6pm and go to bed at 8pm and that junk takes a long time to digest. I think i can manage to stick to chicken only… Its what I mostly eat anyways

Eating red meat is not only nutritionally unnecessary and unhealthy but also very bad for the environment.
Quick facts:
Beef production creates/causes more green house gasses than cars.
If Americans cut down their beef consumption by just 20% it would be better than changing all the sedans and other cars to hybrids.
Crazy much?
