Question by *Haley*: How difficult is it to become a vegetarian after 18 years of eating meat?
I know several people who are vegetarians and they seem to be extremely healthy. I would like to try to become a vegetarian, for health reasons and the fact that it can make you lose weight. I like most fruits and veggies, but my entire life I have been eating meat. Chicken, beef, fish, liver mush, bacon etc. Has anyone here been a total carnivore and then did a complete 180 to a vegetarian? And also could you list some pros and cons of vegetarianism? Thank you in advance :)

Answer by Lsg I would suggest that you limit yourself to just chicken at first, because that’s hard for most people to give up. Then start to substitute the chicken with tofu and protein and gradually go from there.

I was so happy to see mainstream media is finally getting a clue. This news report on ABC suggests you cut back on eating meat by 20% or more to help the environment. It’s true that that will help, but even better would be to go vegan and not only save the environment but save lives. In fact one of the lives’ you save may be your own! Go vegan for the environment, the animals and your own health. It’s the right thing to do. :-)
