it's hard! it's only been a month since i started a vegetarian diet and it's really difficult specially if you're living with meat eaters. but if you like to cook and go to the market there shouldn't be any problem. this is my second attempt and it's still difficult but i'd say easier than the first time and i intend to stay vegetarian. i think it's a matter of discipline and staying focus. the right thing is always hard to do but when you succeed the rewards are great. goodluck!

It seems so much more difficult to give up meat if you have already eaten it. People who have never eaten meat there entire lives have made their bodies accustomed to not eating meat.
But if there is a will its not at all a matter . Vegetarian food is widely available in shops and restaurants, it's easy to cook and you're probably already eating many vegetarian meals such as beans on toast or jacket potato and cheese without even putting your mind to it. It's no sacrifice to give up meat when there are so many delicious recipes and so many tasty foods to experiment with. Plus you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you're eating a healthy diet that doesn't involve the killing of animals or the abuse of the world's resources.

It's easier if you are the person doing the shopping and the food preparation and you like to cook....when I became a vegetarian, I went out and bought about 4 cookbooks, and I had a blast trying out all the new recipes and cool ingredients from the health food store.....so that's one of the things you can do to make it fun and not so hard to make changes. But then again, I love change and variety.

I have always been a vegetarian. I can't think of not being a vegetarian.

If you are trying to be one now, I suggest you do it step by step.

You can have only vegetarian food on certain days of a week at first. Then you can have it for a particular meal. Allow yourself the indulgence of a non veg food in the beginning. Give up slowly so that you don't feel deprived and get used to it.

Do take care to eat a balanced diet.

Best wishes!

It's easy so long as you find meals you LIKE. It would be very hard to just eat raw salads and plain vegetables and enjoy being vegetarian.

Every day meals I like:

Vegetable lasagne.

Veggie pattieburgers/falafels with avocado/salad

Vegetarian pizza (tomato base, mushrooms, green capsicum, onion, black olives, cheese)

Cheesy pumpkin & veg pasta bake

Tacos made with the usual spices & salads, but using beans instead of minced meat

There are heaps of recipes for this kind of stuff online... just use a search engine.

P.S. I find myself saying this over and over, haha. Most cheeses are NOT vegetarian! They are made with an enzyme from dead calf stomach. The only cheese that is vegetarian is one that lists the enzyme as vegetable derived. I dunno what state you're in, but coles has a couple of veg cheeses. Don't eat marshmallows or jelly lollies either, gelatin is made from dead animals. Here's a big list: http://www.veganwolf.com/animal_ingredie...

Not really after I learned all the health benefits. I wanted to quit meat almost right away. I guess it was alittle hard warding off my old habits and cravings.. but after a year I don't have any anymore and the thought of meat just sickens me! :)

It shouldn't be hard, like a diet. It should come easy, like breathing. You have to really believe in what it supports and represents. Otherwise, why bother.

---

It should be easy if you're in it for the right reasons :)
