New Vegetarian

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone! I am a 40 year old wife and mom of three who has now been

meat free for a month. Ive played with the idea of becoming a

vegetarian since I was a teen but found it difficult as I am from Iowa

and was raised in a farming community. Eating meat was expected and not

much thought put into it, so we ate what we were fed and never

questioned it. The decision to become a vegetarian has been one of the

best decisions I have ever made as I feel better than I ever have. I

have a huge love of all animals and often times felt like a hypocrite

for eating meat,but being involved in animal rights. I now feel better

mentally and physically and being a vegetarian just comes naturally to

me now. Im excited to become a member of this group and find new

recipes, as my first experience with tofu was not a good one..lol.
