Staying in India

I’m spending some time in India which really helps. Here the vegetarian food is easy to get and it’s delicious (although I find Paneer extremely boring).

How to become a vegeterian
It made me
Healthy
 "Fulfilling in both my stomach and my mind."
How I did it: Baby steps! You can't change how you've been taught to cconsume food in just a couple of days. It's excruciatingly hard to completely refrain from eating meat when it's what we've been taught to do since birth in our society. Simply remind yourself why you're becoming a vegeterian and look for other types of food for nourishment. Lessons & tips: It'll take a while to get used to it but make sure you have a well-balanced diet, allowing you to feel full without eating such a heavy dish like meat. Look to other cultures and influences when it comes to your diet. Being a vegeterian isn't just a way to eat, it's a lifestyle. Resources: Tofu is your friend. Do not fear vegetables - your mother was right. They are good for you.

feel so proud!
How I did it: i started slowly, which i think is the key. first, i cut out red meat, and once i was comfortable with that new diet, i cut out white meat. i still eat fish, which really classifies me as an ovo/lacto pescetarian, but generalizing my state as "vegetarian" helps in public.

Stop Eating Meat
15 months ago
My sister was a vegetarian for almost 15 years before I did the same. My inspiration was my then-boyfriend who was an ethical vegetarian, something I’d never heard of. He wasn’t pushy, and it wasn’t until I’d read some of his Herbivore magazines that I thought it was a good idea. It’s been almost three years now, and I feel good, but I still miss pepperoni pizza.

I can finally say I am a Vegetarian. One year no meat. I never really liked meat , and maybe thats what makes it so essy for me. But onestly my biggest encouragement for this vegetarian diet would the animal. Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather and going to circuses and zoos. We ate jack in the box burgers, and kept beautiful birds in cages. We never considered the Impact of these actions on the animals involved. People often ask if animals should have rights, and I simply think the answer is yes.And human health is in risk. The leading killers in America can be stopped simply by starting a vegetarian diet. Some of the diseases that are reducing in a vegetarian diet are Cancer, Obesity, and Strokes. Vegetable proteins can help keep our hearts healthy, eating animal proteins can put us in an early grave. I can say that one step close to a healthy life. New years resolution go Vegan.
