Introducing myself

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I have just joined the group. I'm a 56-year-old guy who has been vegetarian for

just 5 months (and loving it). My reason for this change is a concern for

animals - that my own health will benefit is a bonus. I stopped eating all meat

cold turkey (sorry for that). No eggs either but am still weaning off cheese,

which for me is the toughest food to forgo. I also do not eat honey. This is a

change for the rest of my life so I'm adapting carefully to avoid relapses. My

goal is to become a true vegetarian. One of the experiences I'm enjoying most

since going vegetarian is, believe or not, food prep. I've never been much of a

cook but this diet change is forcing me to spend the time, get creative and

enjoy the process! Looking forward to reading some good info and advice and

hope, once I've gained a little knowledge, I can contribute as well. Cheers,
