The other night we were at a neighbor's house for a barbeque. Everyone brought something (I brought a fruit salad) (and, I found out several other people did, too).
The food was ready and people started eating. I thought I would wait until it died down a bit. RT an I were one of the last ones to go eat. They were serving hot dogs and hamburgers. RT mentioned that I am a vegetarian. (I haven't gone around and told anyone) A few people were worried about what I would eat. Another said, What brings this on? (like it's a disease) And another asked how long I will be doing this "vegetarian thing?"
I haven't announced it to anyone. Well, I guess I am now. I am not doing this to inconvenience anyone. I don't need any special meals made for me. I just feel better when I eat this way. I did do grass fed beef and was better eating that than the corn fed beef. After watching "Forks over Knives," I felt the need to at least try going vegetarian and see how I like it. I feel better. It hasn't been that long (maybe 6 or 8 weeks?).
So, I guess I am stepping out of the closet and letting everyone know that I am now a vegetarian.
By the way, I ate fruit salad for dinner at the party and felt great afterwards.
I feel better being out of that stuffy closet.
