Nope, i slowly migrated to this way of living, and honestly I do not miss the meat. I have never enjoyed eating dead animals, I thought i had to, but as I educated myself I found that whole "where do you get your protein?" argument to be actually a falsehood.
When you eat the way I do, I actually get MORE protein, and MORE energy than before! I used to eat pizza and drink beer everyday like everyone else. But i stopped.
Now the things I eat really are like a fuel, and also help my body remain healthy - things like mushrooms, brocolli, lycopene etc... these are things my body lacked before, now I get them daily.
It took me 2 years to stop eating meat totally, which is average. I gave up red meat first, then slowly got rid of chicken, turkey etc... I dont eat fish either.
I quit smoking cigarettes years ago, if i could do that I can do anything. And so can you.
