Hey guys and gals. ...could somone help me out, on becoming a vegitarian and maybe even a vegan?... i really want this but i feel i need a boost in the right direction.... what would be yalls advice about easing into the transition from carnivore to herbavor? what about recipies, and stayin strong, and not given in... what about supplements etc... any and all advise would be greatly appretiated
i suggest you do it gradually..that's how i did it. it's not healthy for anyone to eat meat one day and then all of a sudden deprive their body of it the next day. start by eating meat, poultry, or fish less and less week by week. like only a few times a week. <- that's how i did it at least! recipes, staying strong (emotionally, you mean?), vitamins...you can get so many recipes, you just need to look. for example, my state has a veg site http://www.vegseattle.com, you could go to peta.com, or just do a search on google. what i do to keep at it, as in staying strong, when i'm being put down and things, i just think of all the good i'm doing by standing up. and you can get vitamins from any food that isn't meat. if you're concerned that you're just not getting *enough vitamins, take a supplement. all in all, take care and keep at it!
Compassion over killing (cok.net) has a fantastic starter kit. Check it out. PETA's is good too, you can find it at goveg.com
I assure you, if you look at the post I did on the ' why be a vegetarian ' topic, You'd probably stop eating meat the moment you finish. Fast, but effective. Plus, you could look at the slaughterhouse footage.
It depends if you want to be 'radical' or just want to be a vegeterian..organisations like PETA are not the best...don't cloud your mind with the crap they have on ther site...hey sorry you might like to become a bit 'mental' about vegeterianism...i don't know. http://homodiet.netfirms.com/otherssay/vegetarianism.htm http://www.vrg.org/nutshell/nutshell.htm anyway don't become too pious about it all.. Good look 7 YEARS AND STILL GOING
