Becoming Vegetarian - was Re:Belated thank you to Debbie

[Guest guest]

From my own personal experience, I would say you have to stay focused at the

beginning. In March, 1981, I was so repulsed by the fat flying off hamburg I

was

frying, and taking major note of the fact it had once been a living breathing

creature, I gave it to my dog and decided that was the end of eating flesh for

me.

And it was - but I found in the very early days that habits would overtake my

mind -

one evening while babysitting for a friend, digging in the fridge for a snack,

I

hauled out the cold ham without even thinking - before I got the sandwich made

it

registered, " hey, I'm not eating meat anymore " - now, it is so much part of me

that

I don't even think about it. (I do find myself increasingly checking labels -

animal parts are hidden in everything - even commercial yoghurt isn't clean!)

>Hi,

" TODAY IS THE DAY "

 

I have decided to leave all meat behind me and live a vegetarian life.

I have read a bit but need people to let me know how they started etc.

 

I need all the help and advise that you can give to me also what vitamins would

be

good for me.

 

Looking forward to a meat free life...
