    first of all if you find it difficult, should you be doing it? I became vegetarian 11 years ago and didn't find it hard, i just stopped eating meat and fish. after a few years, i did find it hard and felt my body was craving meat, that's when i started eating meat again.

    go on vegetarian websites and buy a vegetarian cookery book, don't be afraid to experiment and you can simply use recipes you were using before just substitute the meat with a vegetable, you'll be surprised by the variety of vegetable there it. also try quorn or soya products, some people don't like them but personally i do and still eat them now when i fancy a change from meat.

    you can make soups, pastas, lasagna, cassereoles, ,moussaka, rice dishes and like i said don't be afraid to try new things! good luck

    Just watch a few YouTube videos of animals being abused and slaughtered in factory farms - you'll never want to touch meat again. Also, think of meat as dead animal flesh instead of a food ingredient, and it'll become more and more gross over time.

    Also, think of the fact that you'll reduce your cholesterol and will be much less likely to ever get a heart attack, if you're a diligent vegetarian. Just read about all the benefits of the veg diet and you'll come to it on your own :)

    Just don't eat meat. Eat more beans and peas. They are very good to eat instead of meat. Especially soy.

    And every time you want to reach for meat just think of the animals...

    first, ask yourself why you want to. being a vegetarian can be very unhealthy unless you also take supplements to counter what your body is not getting from meat. also, if you are going to stop eating meat, are you going to stop using everyday products such as toothpaste, hair products, make up, riding in cars, etc.? it is a HUGE lifestyle change, not just a diet change.
