Is it hard to become a vegetarian?!

I am the daughter of the king of meat!.
Literally my dad had an ENTIRE freezer dedicated to meat that he held under lock and key!.
So I was raised under the imrpession that a meal wasn't a meal unless meat was the center of it!.
Living on my own now, and always wanting to cut out meat I've finally done it!.
What's made it EASY for me- Mock meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's different for everyone!. Obviously, much depends on how much you enjoy eating meat - since I rarely ever ate red meat before becoming vegetarian that wasn't a problem, and I gradually cut out poultry and fish (I have to tell you, the fish was damn difficult to give up)!.
But assuming the willpower is there, I'm pretty sure everyone with the exception of the most hardcore meat-eaters could turn veggie if they had a plan to do so!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. Well, actually yes!. And no!.
Is it hard to quit smoking!? It's a lot easier if you have the right motivation!. The reality is that some people have a very hard time being vegetarian!. I did not!. I have been a crazy vegan (my preferred term) for nearly 10 years!. I've found it easy and rewarding!. I was never a vegetarian, and I did not do anything progressive, I just went cold tofurky (sorry!.!.)
Eat a varied diet, cook food from scratch, learn how to make thai, mexican, italian, chinese, japanese, indian, greek, south american dishes!. Experiment!. Bake!. But don't spend hours over a stove every night, or you will find it very hard to be vegetarian!. Enjoy your newfound relationship with food!.
Keep a fruit bowl stocked!. Eat lots of salads!. PLEASE don't be one of those 'vegetarians' who live on nothing but Mac & Cheese!. It is possible to be unbelievably unhealthy while still being strictly vegetarian!. You should feel good about your choice, and it should ultimately make you healthier!.
The reality is that there are tons of resources out there for folks who want to be vegetarian, what they don't tell you is the hardest thing you'll have to face when being vegetarian; the barrage of questions you'll be asked anytime you tell someone you're vegetarian (why!? how do you get your protein!? B12!? I have this friend who got really sick as a vegetarian, you are being careful aren't you!? You mean you don't eat fish!? Etc etc!.!.!.)
If you choose to follow a veg!. diet, I hope you find it fun instead of hard!Www@FoodAQ@Com

At first it might be a little hard so that's why it's always best to slowly start taking away meat!. First start with beef, then progress to pork, and then chicken and fish!.
As time passes by I can guarantee you it gets easier!. Each week you get by, the less you crave meat!.
Best of luck to you if you're planning on becoming vegetarian!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Actually, like anything else it is a matter of your motivation and your commitment!. If your reasons for stepping into the world of the vegetarian lifestyle is strong enough you may find that your creativity in the kitchen has been enhanced and your sensitivity to subtle flavor too!. You may find that you can look a cow, a pig, a sheep, a turkey, fish or a chicken in the eye; and in the mirror with new respect!. And you may see your doctor less frequently unless it's socially!. The animals thank you, planet thanks you foo!.!.And when you are looking for awesome recipes to make the journey deliciously flavorful as well as healthy check out http://www!.your-vegetarian-kitchen!.com/h!.!.!.

I think it depends!. If your whole family eats meat and your the only vegetarian I think it would be more difficult!. If you have someone to quit with you, I think it would be easier!. Take it from someone who knows, when was 7 I became a vegetarian and back then my whole family ate meat about 2 times a week!. I had my dad with me!. Now, 8 years later, we are still both vegetarians!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
If you have a strong reason to (like your against killing animals or health reason so on and so fourth) then no its not to hard!. The first month or 2 is the hardest because you still crave the taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
