Gone! Hi David!

[Guest guest]

Well, I am a female. But I do know that there are some men on this

group and some of them actually do participate (including you!).

 

I've never been a huge meat eater my entire life. Did grow up eating

it, but when I went to college (1988) I began phasing it out. When I

graduated, I started reading about becoming a vegetarian, but it took

another 8 years before I took the full plunge.

 

In 2000 I began the change. At first it was no cooking meat at home;

but if I went out I might choose fish; but I tried not to. Then I

finally just did it. I've had a few slips in the past; but it helps

having a partner who is also a vegetarian.

 

I still deal with my sister trying to force me to eat meat. I just

keep saying " no, thank you. " I guess my tell-tale evidence of being a

meat-eater is my family.
