my body has really been telling me to not be eating meat lately =\. i love meat a wholeeee lot, let meee tell you =Þ, but as i've been becoming more aware of myself and my body and all this, 'dont eating meat' has just been whisperin from within. so do alot of voices, =P and i dont know what to listen ot anymore, but this really just aint quieting up. i've went a week, maybe a week and a half without meat, and my body just felt so much lighter and a little better, but then got me some meat and just didn't quit with it =P on and off, and still, 'dont eat meat' just pops up - which is a sign this is one i should follow**. i haven't been eating meat now, this time, for just 2 or 3 days now, and still feel fine fine fine, but i hear that you gotta watch yourself, know what veggies to eat, what to eat instead of meat, etc. do you kind kind folks have any advice on what i should be stocking up on, etc etc? much much much love, ethan =)
See the recent thread 'gone veggie'. It pretty much covers the same ground. It's wonderful you are so intune with yourself, hope it works out.

I tried not eating meat for for some odd reason and I'll tell you I felt like shit. I was tired all day and began to loathe the vegetables. But I have to admit, the 2 days without meat made my hamburger taste extra good!
Hey, I don't eat meat from two mouths.And it wasn't hard.You must just believe that you don't want to eat meat.Or watch peta's videos, that will help a looooot!I ate a lot of meat before, and after watching them, I just couldn't eat that again
Magic mushrooms, did you have good vegetarian food or did you just eat iceburg crappy salads? things you might try: Mornngstar Farms Meal Starters "chicken" or "steak" awesome. you can make anything with them. incredible.
If you go to the PETA website you can send away for a booklet called "The Vegetarian Starter Kit" and a movie about slaughterhouses called "Meet Your Meat".
