I'll give it a try.?!
Ok, ye brain washing, cult following, tree hugging, veggie types!. (just getting a few stereotypes out there) Ye've finally got to me with all the veggie loving stuff and I'm going to give it a go for the next week!.
Himself has nearly passed out at the idea of me crossing over to the dark side!. He's an atheist but he and his new best friend the Parish Priest have gone ahead and commissioned a Novena for the salvation of my meat eating soul!. (or maybe he just lost the plot and nearly killed himself laughing at my latest venture) I'll be keeping ye all posted on my progress but if I start taking sneaky bites out of my clients instead of neutering them then we'll know it's all gone horribly wrong!.
Right, where do I start!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Meat substitutes are a great way to replace meat and they provide a lot of protein too!. Quorn is a popular brand, and it's products are certified by The Vegetarian Society!. As a vegetarian, you can still consume dairy products and eggs!.
Eating out is easier nowadays!. Most restaurants have veggie options!. Personally I don't think vegetarianism restricts me in any way!. (Vegetarians don't eke out a miserable existence on a few limp lettuce leaves - there are so many delicious veggie foods out there for you to try!)!.
I'm sure you know about veggie sources of protein- eggs, dairy, nuts, beans, wholegrains, pasta, soya milk etc!.
Check out the Vegetarian Society's Recipe Index- there are some awesome recipes to try:

It might be easier to slowly reduce your meat intake!. I hope you enjoy being meat free for a while!. Let me know how you get along!. ;-)

I am a veggie for already 20 years and mainly because the fact that I refuse killing animals or being the cause of it!.
After a while you start wondering how on earth you started eating meat in the first place!.**** I still eat eggs and drink milk because no harm is done to the animal by doing that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Go to the library, or look on line for some yummy recipes!. Get some good substitutes for your protein, Cauldron Foods (mostly tofu products) and Quorn are great for the odd meal but go experiment with some pulses, nuts and seeds too!. I've been a vegetarian for 26 years and I cook and eat all sorts of meals that any meat eater would using substitutes!. There is also tonnes of exciting ways to cook vegetables that you might not have tried before!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hey!.!.!.well done for trying!.!.!.!. I've been veggie all my life and have done just fine!. We're actually quite lucky at the huge choice of foods available!
Pasta dishes are usually a good bet as you can mix them up with different sauces and vegetables and u can go even further with pizza, lasagna, paninis etc which are all easy to make!.
Themed nights sound like a plan to stop any boredom!.!.!.!. Mexican, Italian, Indian, British!.!.!.!.!.
Indian is another winner as there are hundreds of veggies curries you can try!.
If you feel like veggie food isn't filling enough try having a little extra cheese or wholewheat products to replace the meat!.
I love the BBC good food website for recipes its not exclusively vegetarian but has loads of inventive recipes for vegetarians as well!
Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have been a veggie for 15 years now and to be honest, do we really have that much meat in our diet!? People do see the switch as huge but maybe it isn't, I am also dieting at the moment so being a veggie helps anyway!.
Breakfast: Kellogg’s Special K, or Toast, or Crumpets, or scrambled egg on toast!.
For lunch I have cheese salad, egg salad or bean salad sandwiches!.
In the evening I might have rice, potatoes (all styles) with sauce, boiled broccoli, pasta, salad again!.
In the end, we get nervous about doing it and then realise we were 98% or more veggie already anyway!.
I can't even imagine eating meat and my diet still has a huge richness!. But make sure you eat the protein, they say that is lacking when giving up meat!. Pulses, eggs and dairy products are good for replacing missed protein, other than that the diet is just as rich!.
