Wow, I never thought I would have found myself trawling through this sort of forum. I am a meat lover well I was until last night. I was at home alone last night surfing the internet and I stumbled across Earthlings. OMG I couldn’t stop crying, I was actually wailing in some points. I am ashamed to admit that I was a bit of a coward. I could only watch a little over half the doco before I had to turn it off because I just couldn’t watch it any more.
So now I am faced with this dilemma. I can’t un-know what I now know. How do I move forward from here? I don’t think I can eat meat again or dairy. I purchased my first carton of almond milk today. Hippy milk! Who would have thought it would actually taste so good.
I live in a family of meat eaters and I have a feeling that my partner is not going to be to supportive of my change if I choose to pursue this life style. How do you cope when you live in a house were others are not Vegan?
Why can’t I eat eggs if I eat free range eggs?
Why can’t I eat honey? Do the bees suffer?
Do I need to take multivitamins also?
Is there a yoghurt substitute? I love yoghurt so I will struggle with giving this up.
How long do you live this lifestyle before you classify yourself as a Vegan?
Sorry I know I must sound like an idiot but I have never thought that I would seriously considering going down this path and this is all new to me.
I have not eaten any animal product today. I think that is a first for me. With those images so fresh in my mind I found it quite easy. I really hope I can continue because I don’t think I could live with the guilt now.
