1. I have more energy than when I ate meat.

This is my number benefit. I use to be so tired after eating that sometimes I had to take a nap. Of course I did, my energy was being used to digest that heavy beef, pork, etc. Now my food is what is was intend- my energy source.

2. I get to enjoy fruits and vegetables everyday. In order to be healthy we all need to eat lots of fruits and veggies. Who do you know that has the proper intake of fruits and veggies?

3. Being a vegetarian has sparked my creativity and exploration as it pertains to food. I enjoy seeing how different foods go together. Now I am more willing to try a wider variety of spices. There are cultures that have foods that are vegetarian, I try different ethnic foods as well. I love falafals!

4. I am healthier. I have great cholesterol levels.

5. I have met some great people because we have vegetarianism in common. I have attended some events using http://www.meetup.com to find people who are vegetarians as well. Many vegetarians also believe in living a peaceful life. (Not all).

6. I don’t have to ever worry about salmonella poisoning from poultry. Poultry is the most common source of salmonella poisoning, when I was growing up I hated having to cut up the whole chicken my mother used to buy. The way the flesh moved made me feel weird inside. I do not have to do that anymore.

Thank Heavens!

I am 11 and I want to become a vegeterian. I don’t want to be full on..I want to still eat eggs and stuff. My cousin is built like me..not the skinniest person…You know… But then she became vegetarian and started excersizing more. My only problem with becoming Vegetarian is Thanksgiving. Is tofu expensive? Thank you!!!
