Fake meat! I eat soyrizo and soy nuggets all the time, and they taste better than the real thing!. If you can't let go of meat right away, start by cutting back on it!. If you eat it every day, start off slowly by eating it every other day for a few months!. Then you can only eat it once a week!. Then you can cut out stuff like beef and pork!. Then when you're already accustomed to it, you can let chicken go too!.

Hang in there! You can do it!

The first question that you need to answer is, what are you finding hard!? Some new vegetarians will find it difficult if they don't know what to cook!. I remember my first few weeks of being a vegetarian were very bland b/c I was not sure what to cook, I was cooking the same things, and most of the food I was making was boring!. it was not until I found more recipes, and replaced some of my old meat favorites with vegetarian meals!.

There are a lot of great cookbooks out there!. You can find everything from simple, fast meals, to elaborate fancy dishes!. My local books store has shelves of vegetarian cookbooks!. I also increased my recipes by looking online, modifying recipes that had meat, and borrowing books from the library!.

Some things you need to do!.!.!.!.
-Remember why you wanted to be a vegetarian in the first place!.
-Set a goal that you will stick to vegetarianism for at least a month(in this time gather recipes, etc)
-Ask yourself what you are finding hard about being a vegetarian, and then brainstorm how to solve that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Beans are a good sub for meat!.
Have fun trying out new vegetarian recipes and you might become addicted to some so that you will forget about meat (i did and now i'm disgusted with even the smell and sight of it)!.

If it's not on down low!.!.
Mark a site with animal cruelty videos as a fave or set it as your home page on computer!.!.
Have magazines and flyers laying around your room or kitchen about vegetarianism!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you tried boca burgers, fake hotdogs, fake sausage!.!.!. they are in the freezer section at our grocery store!. I was a vegetarian for about a year and those got me thru some tough cravings!. I would also recommend bacon bits (soy) in certain dishes, and getting some hickory and mesquite liquid smoke to cook with!. Make sure you are getting enough protein too!.!.!.beans, peanuts, milk, cheese, etc!.!.!.
In the end we gave it up because we weren't getting enough protein, I gained weight, and we had poorer health!. We decided to eat meat in moderation and make better choices about where it came from!. I think the longer you stick with anything that you've made a moral decision about the better!. Remind yourself why you are doing this or even research it some more!. When we struggle we grow!.
Good Luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com
