About vegeterianism

I always loved meat, but I always knew I'll switch to meatless diet at some point in my life. Introducing this idea to my fam, oh well that was a whole plan to consider.  I can't say my family is old fashioned, but for somethings, they just aren't very open-minded.
I talked about going vegetarian as long as I can possibly remember, but I stopped to talk about it after I kept hearing,, Why would you do that?'' ,, That's just stupid.'' an off-course my grandmothers famous saynig that leaves you feeling worthless:,, Just leave it.''
I was thinking about it again at the beginning of this spring. I can vividly remember it was Wednesday when I started researching vegetarianism, how to go vegetarian, what to know about transition, basically everything. I knew if I ever wanted for my mom to even listen to me I had to know the facts, so I did some more school time at home, learning about vegetarianism as much as possible. It was Friday, the same week when I was one hundred percent sure, I was doing this. I remember me helping my mom clean a room when I casually brought up how I used to say I was going to stop eating meat. She just looked at me and said:,, What's the meaning of this?'' So I quickly explained how I'm thinking about it, and I'm quite sure I will do it. She rapidly changed the subject. The very next day I woke up, sure I'm done with meat. At lunch, we were having some meat, but I ate everything but it, so after we cleaned the kitchen, mom called me to a little meeting.
,, You are really doing this?'' she asked. And I confirmed but added I was just trying it out, to see if it's working for me. I can happily say that on the 5th of August 2019 it will be four months since I even tasted meat and I'm not planning on eating it anytime soon.
So, here is how the first month went.
I couldn't even imagine doing it slowly giving up this than that... I knew that wouldn't work for me that's basically just putting it off. So I went cold turkey. It's so much easier for me to do something and stick to it. I do everything like that.
It was the third day morning when  I had a literal hole in my stomach. I still haven't figured it out, but for an entire week, I was feeling this '' hole '' in my stomach. Is slowly started disappearing on day six. Already on day three, I was feeling so damn tiny. I quit work out for the beginning time, just to be safe but I swear I was super duper tiny in the waist.
The third day was really weird. I was so hungry in the morning, I was already a little nauseous. That kept going for a few days in the morning and then as the hole disappeared this did too.
Really I quit meat, knowing just how calamari, wiener schnitzel, cheeseburger etc. tasted, so don't come up to me saying:,, You really don't want some?'' while eating it. I'll pass anyway so don't try so hard to make me shift.
In conclusion, if you are not sure about the transition or you are just curious about it, just try it, you won't be sorry.



Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armour, and it can never be used to hurt you.
