Aside from a few meat dreams, I've had no problems or regrets.
What are meat dreams?
The last one I had involved a loved one serving me savory stew swimming with giant juicy chunks of beef. It was awkward when I said I couldn't eat it. I think we both felt bad.
I'm moving away from animal products altogether, but I'm not in a hurry to do it.
I spent three years thinking, researching, and planning before I decided to become a vegetarian.
Many people seem to want to know my reason for doing it. So,
- my cholesterol is naturally high, a hereditary thing, so I don't need to ingest any more
- six months after changing my diet I'm no longer insulin resistant
- I've stopped gaining weight
- no, my doctor didn't order the diet, I made the choice of my own free will
- I generally feel better, lighter, cleaner, more regular
- moral issues: personal beliefs about animal rights and environmental stewardship
- budgetary issues: fruits and veggies and grains are cheaper than meats
