I eat very little meat but I can't do the vegetarian thing. I'm always thinking about it, since I eat so little meat anyway and can go for weeks not eating any, simply because I prefer salads, meat substitutes (tofu, soy), and other foods that aren't so heavy, but every now and then, I just want like bacon or something. When I start even thinking about going vegetarian, I start craving meat and so immediately discard the idea of giving it up. Like right now, I'm about to go finish off that bag of beef jerky that I have.
It would be even harder for me to do it now because my sister is trying to follow a strict eating plan that involves specific amounts protein and she sometimes chooses beef or chicken instead of lentils or tofu and I'm trying to follow the same eating plan in order to make sure that she sticks to it.
I'm not used to eating as much meat as I've been eating, though. I have trouble finishing it all because I just don't really want it. I'm comforting myself with the thought that evolution says I ought to eat meat, so I force it down. lol
