How long did it take you to go from a meat eating diet to being a vegetarian?!
How long did it take you to wean off meat, fish, poultry!?(I'm trying to become a vegetarian and want to make a timeline) Did take a day, a week, a month, a year!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I think from deciding to be a vegetarian to being one, was about a week!. I spent the week looking for foods that were suitable for vegetarians!. Although it took me about a couple of months to become vegan once I had decided, that was a gradual change!.
I think it is sometimes easier to change your diet gradually, maybe have 1 veggie meal for the first week, then 2 in the second and so on!.
Or start by cutting out beef, then pork, then chicken, then fish or whatever order you like!.
These options also give you time to source veggie food and look at foods that will give you vitamins, minerals and protein!.
You could set yourself a time limit you feel comfortable with and feel it would make the transition easier!.
If you haven't already, make good use of the various veggie websites!

It took me about a month!. After I stopped eating pieces of meat I started to read the ingredients in everything packaged!. Did you know that Peak Freans digestive cookies contain tallow (beef fat) and that McDonald's fries are also sprayed with tallow!? Of course, I have since switched back to eating meat and I am loving every bit of it!. Best of luck to you, it's a difficult lifestyle to have to justify to everyone!. Please make sure that you get enough protein in your diet! There are plenty of meat substitutes out there!. One of the biggest problems that you may experience is anemia!. Hema iron is the type best absorbed by the body and it is found only in meat!. Talk to your physician about an iron supplement - do not start taking one without the advice of your doctor~! Take care!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Well the one day I decided not to eat meat I have always simply been a vegetarian since that day!. For others that is a difficult thing to do so perhaps you could try giving up 1 type of meat then another and so on gradually until you have cut out everything!. Or you could begin eating less meat then eventually give it up completely!. Hope this helps :)
I believe that reminding myself exactly why I wished to be a vegetarian helped me have the willpower and dedication to not eat meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

well it kind of just happened with me , i just said , im nto eating meat and then i didnt
iv been one for about two years now , and sometimes i do crave it but only now and then and only certain meats
but it depends how much of a meat eater you are , if you eat alot of meat then i would say you will get bigger cravings and should probably cut out your most eaten meat first and then go down the line , eventually stopping!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I just stopped one day, originally thinking it would be temporary, and made it permanent!.
It did take a long time to learn about things like gelatin and McDonald's fries!. I probably ate a few things with animal byproducts in the first few years!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
