I want to do this, but how do I start? Is it just about not eating meat?

One day at a time... is happy
Just finished my month up yesterday and I have to say that this wasn’t as bad as I had built it up to be….not only did I have no real cravings to eat meat, but I also lost nearly 15 pounds in 4 weeks! It has opened my eyes to many new options on the menu when I go out to eat at restraunts, which is nice. I would say this is definetly worth trying!!

Wow, so I haven’t posted to this goal in awhile, but I have four more nights to go and I can declare that I have been a vegetarian for a month!! I have to admit that when I started this goal I thought it would be much tougher than it has turned out to be. I thought the temptation would conquer me, but I have really not had “cravings” like I thought. Also, since I cut meat from my diet, my appetite has decreased, I am eating smaller proportions, and I have lost nearly 15 pounds in just under 4 weeks! Here’s to hopin’ I make it through the next four nights!!!

Well, tomorrow will be 10 days without any meat..I have to say that so far it has been easier than I expected, since I have eaten meat my whole life. Today was interesting because it was the first experience shopping for groceries for me since I started this adventure…it went pretty good. Ashley trying this along with me has made it easier I think….

Tomorrow will be one week without any meat…I’m doing fine, and I have zero cravings for animal flesh. Even Paul is doing well; I thought it’d be killing him by now.
But the thought eating meat hasn’t even crossed my mind…I feel fantastic!

Yesterday, I started my month of being meat-free! It was so delicious!
My boyfriend is going to try to do it with me, and he is doing well. I’m really happy someone is doing it with me, and that it’s him. He has high blood pressure, and he’s only twenty-five…I don’t know what I’d do if something happened to him…but I’m glad he’s making a wise decision to do this with me.
My meat consumption has gone down lately with the end of my relationship – from 2-3 times a week to once or twice in 2 weeks. I’m going to keep it like this for the time being (i.e. have meat when visiting parents etc.) and keep this goal for my time in New Zealand next December/January.
So, I don’t have a moral issue with eating meat, not really, maybe just a little bit, but only when I think about how the animals are actually raised.
But I want to do it as a practice of self disciple. I want to do it to see how my body reacts to it.
