Yup, today is my second day. A lot of my vegetarian and vegan friends inspired me to do so, but my friend Christa's video here is what finally made me do it. Might go vegan, but I'm going to take baby steps first. -SHARK DIGGLER

If that's what you truly want, Shark, I can only wish you the best of luck with it

Does that mean that, me being a believing carnivore, I get to eat only meagre meat now that you eat the animals' food away? Just joking - keep it up! It certainly is good for you - but really consider before going vegan - the human body is designed to need some animal proteins.

A well balanced vegetarian diet is really a matter of knowing your stuff, according to a relative of mine who is a vegetarian. You have to be aware of what to eat and in what quantities in order to get all the necessary proteins and things.
It's a lot harder than just nibbling on lettuce and carrots.

Good for you, Shark. can't say it's my thing, and I've tried be a vegetarian for about 14 days, but with the right it can be done as Elliot said.

well frankly Mr Shankly, meat is murder.
as for this Christa, what she said, barbarism begins at home.
you've got everything now, accept yourself.
stretch out & wait, these things take time, you just haven't earned it yet, baby.
janggut, the sweet & tender hooligan ;D

Awesome, Janggut! I'm going to have to reply to that with something good! Right now I can't because I have a date and I need to hurry up and get ready. And I haven't got a stitch to wear! But just so you know, she isn't some dizzy whore, in 1804! ;D And by the way, she's vegan. So in her eyes you're right, I just haven't earned it yet, baby! -SHARK DIGGLER

Good luck, Shark. And just because you have decided to go vegan doesn't mean you have to give up good food. There is some great tasting vegan food out there which I'm sure you already know. Shan

Mr. Sharkycarrott impressive move indeed. just one thing, be sure to have a well balanced meal, just don't drown yourself on some "trendy idea"...being a vegetarian can be a positive changing, if you know what you're doing. anyway, even if i love meat, i also love vegetables and if you want i can give you some ideas for some gorgeous meals to have (with your vegy gal) just curious but...why the sudden change?! hope your past as a carniverous fella hasn't catch up on you (on a bad side). regards

Pedro If Shark doesn't want the ideas, I could sure use some new ideas if you've got some really tasty ones. Shan

Shan Lady SHan It would be my pleasure. i love cooking and there are some great meals (soups, salads and even cakes/sweets) that vegetables allow you to explore and taste. being a vegetarian is by far much more than just eat carrots all day... why not we create a new topic specificaly for receips (vegetarian and non ones)?! regards

Janggut is right that we had one a while ago, but I'm pretty sure it'd take a while to resurrect - so start a new cookery thread any time you want, guys No problem from my POV
