[Guest guest]

* your name or nickname - Tami

* where you live - Mount Horeb, WI

* your age group - 40's (just turned 44 a few days ago)

 

Also:

* Are you vegetarian (or vegan), still working at

it, or still thinking about it? How long? - I became a vegetarian on the

19th of this month.

* Are you the only veggie or wannabe in your

household? How many others? - My hubby has agreed to be eat vegetarian meals

at home since I don't want to cook meat.

It's just the two of us.

* Do you do the cooking or is it shared? I do it all.

 

WAIT! Anything else you would like to tell us? - The first two weeks I

focused on just changing to a vegetarian diet without worrying about

calories. Even though I have continued to lose weight it has slowed down so

now I need to start re-focusing on my daily calories and finding recipes

that are low in fat and calories. For the past 5 years I have thought about

becoming a vegetarian but the fact is I hate most veggies so I figured it

wouldn't work. After reading a book recently about the treatment of animals

I couldn't continue to eat meat. So liking veggies or not, I decided to make

the jump. I read every book I could find for a month and then cleaned out

the house and started my new life.

I took meat out of my diet and now the next step is to start cutting out any

products I am used to buying that have meat products in them. It has been

very exciting so far and I am finding myself to be more adventurous then I

ever thought I could be. Veggies still aren't delicious but most of them are

now in the edible to good range. :-)

That's my story.
