Vegetarian for two years today.

It's one of the best decisions I've ever made.

 

awesome.. and the animals thank you too.

 

Congratulations, I became veg about 10 years ago ,and I feel the same!

 

Good on ya!! I have also been meat free for 10 years, It's good!

 

That's great. I am working on about a year. What made you decide to go veggie? For me it was a decision I made after I was the grader for an moral issues class and one of the issues was animal rights. Some of the arguments from the papers I read seemed for the most part right, so I did what I saw as morally responsible. Has it been difficult at all for you?

 

Well i remember as a child it never really sat wright with me, i could never eat meat off a bone or chicken skin, it would freak me out because it was so much like us (people).
My mum took me to the Dr. when I was about 7 and told him i didn't eat meat, when he asked why i said because it's to chewy.

Later in life around 13 i saw a doco about mad cow disease i never ate meat after that. it wasn't that i could get mad cow but i had never seen pictures of dead skinned cows and i still have this one picture in my head of a skinned cows head being mashed up.

Ohhh its so disgusting i don’t know how anyone can eat that, a dead animal, kill an animal like that... to eat it.. It is so wrong.

And then i learned all the rest.

 

congratulations

 

Congrats, it's a milestone you should be proud of.
