Become a vegetarian

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.

i was a vegetarian before and unfortunatly gave in. i have decided that today will be my last day eating meat. starting on monday i will officially be a vegetarian. i love animals and hate the abuse they endure so i can have a rodeo burger from burger king. save the animals!

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

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…...

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 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 : )

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”

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.

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!

I made it my goal to cut out pork and red meat this year (2008). Now I am just eating chicken and sea food (no lobster). I should stop eating chicken in 2009, but I have to try harder to start eating alternatives. The only problem I have had so far is being too low in vitamin B12 but I solved that by taking a supplement.
