    it really helped me …
    it really helped me, when i first started to be vegetarian, to get into making good healthy yummy food… im 18 and i love to cook probably because im vegetarian… for lunch today i had a sandwich with tomatoes, garlic, green olives and mushrooms on a piece of wheat french bread with white cheddar cheese and mustard… (toasted)
    its actually pretty quick to make and delicious and probably only costed me like 1.50…
    anyways… it just helps to experiment.

  • beeno77:

    its all about being …
    its all about being commited… the best way for me to do it was to just stop. it helps a lot to watch all the videos and movies that have information on it… “food inc.” is a great one… you just have to make it up in your head that your going to do it. oh yeah and it helps to think about where your food is coming from while your eating it… yuck.

    Just go little by …
    Just go little by little don’t try all at once. You can start by just cutting red meats. Only eat chicken and fish. After some time, when you get used to it, you can start cutting the chicken out and use replacements or tofu! Then later, cut out the fish and you’re done! Try looking up veg recepies.

    I don’t find it hard to cut red meats and chicken but there isn’t really equivalents for fish or seafood. =/ I personally chose to be pescarian until I feel fine cutting fish from my diet.

    Damn am I glad I’m …
    am I glad I’m not a hippie… I can eat all the delicious meat I want. And I’m so going to.

  • TejasM14:

    Being vegan is VERY …
    Being vegan is VERY hard. Vegetarianism is far more practical and easy. If you like spicy food and want to experiment with vegetarianism, I’d suggest Indian cuisine because a large chunk of it is vegetarian. Vegetarian food is just the same food except for the meat. For example a burrito without meat is a perfectly tasty vegetarian item. For sure, chicken wings and sausages are not an option. But really, vegetarianism is not as hard as most people think it can be.

  • mary45789:

    I first stopped …
    I first stopped eating red meat. A month after, I cut out chicken & turkey. And later on, I stopped fish. It is easy that way, because you gradually learn tips, recipes, etc. That helps you to continue ;)
    Good luck!

    My favorite sandwich is a “turkey” sandwich. I put it in quotations because I am talking about fake meat. Check out Yves veggie cuisine.

  • RaidxandxPlunder:

    I started by …
    I started by cutting out red meat, no beef no pork. I did this for a week, after that week cut out the rest, fish and chicken. Also what helped was eating more of a variety of vegetarian foods.

  • hugatree1212:

    Hey all you …
    Hey all you vegetarians, what was the successful way you became a vegetarian? Did you just go for it or did you gradually give it up? I’ve tried to become one a few times but I failed after the third day… :( I’m still trying! Can i have some tips please?

    its the circle of life…i mean by you not eating any meat doesn’t mean the food industry is going to stop but oh well

    I am trying to become a vegetarian. it has been like a week without any meat and I want to keep this up…any good ideas on good vegetarian meals to eat? like for example: breakfast, lunch, and dinner? I like fruit so it is easy for me to have a meatless breakfast, but I usually have like a sandwich with some kind of meat on it like turkey or ham….Any good vegi sandwiches besides pb&j.

    Clams don’t have a central nervous system, but fish do so MOST vegatarians don’t eat fish, and vegans definitely don’t.

    Right now, since I’m only 15 years old it would be a good idea to learn about vegatarianism. At least that’s what i think would be best. To learned at an early age about nutrition.
