I definitely want to do this 1 week ago

I am beginning to dislike looking at and handling raw meat. It is really disgusting and I also feel guilty.



Day 1 1 week ago

Well, what can I say. I did pretty well all day yesterday, until I got hungry. I get really impulsive when I am hungry and I think this is where my problem is. I worked and didn’t make time to prepare anything. I actually hadn’t even gone to get groceries yet. I planned to do it before work, but didn’t get up in time. Like I said, I did well during the day, but after work I went to the store. It was too long between meals and I scarfed up a bunch of pizza rolls. It’s going to be a process with little hiccups along the way. I am okay with that. I am learning about myself.

There is only one thing stopping me from becoming a full-on vegetarian: my love of seafood.

So close but so far. 1 month ago

I want to do this because I find that eating meat, is such a waste of a life. The fact that an animal is breed exclusively for our consumption really tugs at my heart strings. And generally, their life is not that good either…... I won’t get too much on my high horse about this matter. But this is one thing that I feel strongly about – so why not for once, do something about an issue I feel really strongly about?
Plus I have spent weeks not eating meat before and you know what? I really didn’t miss it. The only thing is that meat is convenient because the majority of mainstream meals use it as the core of all meals.
But today is the day and I am going to try and remove meat from my diet. Wish me luck…...



I'm working on doing this... 1 month ago

It’s really hard. Especially after eating meat for so long and not really knowing what to put in it’s place… Yet the more I think about life, and the things I eat; The more I feel we’re not meant to eat animals…



i'm on my way 1 month ago

I started slowly but removing beef, then pork, then chicken. I’m going to remain eating fish. I feel that if I do this for 30 days I can do it forever. I just need to see those sad PETA videos to be focused : )

green is a good colour ! 2 months ago

I want to become a vegetarian, mainly because i dont want my lunch to be coming from a butchery.

There is something very wrong about killing another being just to eat it.

Although Im trying to become Lean. Which requires a high Protein diet, Which is in chicken and fish.

But like I’ve not used whey protein to gain muscle.and im going for a natural diet.Like milk.etc. In the same way, Im quitting Non – Veg food.

So Here I am today, its day 1. of becoming a vegetarian.

“YES WE CAN



sharbinholley is ready for some changes.

well... 2 months ago

I did do this for about a year and I never commented on this goal. I never took it off because I rarely came back to this site. I guess I got too busy. I have actually started eating meat again and will have to revisit this goal later because my main objective is to lose some weight first and foremost. I’ve done it before with only eating grilled chicken breasts so I am going to go back to that and see what happens.



Vegetarian 2 months ago

I’ve been vegetarian since I was 13 and vegan since I was 17. So worth doing if you like feeling, healthy, energised, and compassionate!
