I am beginning to become a vegatarian and would love some ideas from people who have been doing it for a while. What I noticed is that around Thanksgiving time is when it keeps hitting me... I question about the bird that got chopped up and baked just to feed us. I have not eaten Turkey - especially on Thanksgiving day for a long time... but slowly I go back into eating meat... I always think about the animal... I tell people that I apologize to the animal before I eat it...

I am determined this time not to go back to eating meat... but I also know that my body needs protein for every meal... my favorits foods I grew up on is cheese and eggs. I will have a hard time giving up those...

Also, I am really educating my 12 year old about this ... and I don't know if I should force my values on him. I emphasize to him eating healthy - ... how do I go about taking meat away... ???
