I have been a vegeterian since I was 7 (but don't think I'm going to become a vegan. I don't like eggs but I like milk and cheese.) Anyways, I want to know if you like being a vegeterian/vegan. I was kind of forced to be one. What I mean is that my parents they were vegeterian for like about 40 years are something and when there is no meat in the house, your kind of forced to eat something else. For my early years I just had turkey and chicken but I didn't really like it. So I became I vegeterian. And I'm happy really happy. I can tell you that being a vegeterian is one of the best choices I've made in my life.(maybe the only one)lol

I LOVE BEING A VEGETARIAN!!!
just the thought of knowing that.. ME.... i am atleast helping to save the most beautiful things to me!! im happy that im not one of the people who support animal cruelty by eating the same animals who are put into it uknow.... they dont ask for it!!! most of those animals dont get to even have a normal life because their life isnt long enough!
i have made over 9,500 people vegetarians from my speeches and that is the best blessing to me knowing that each day people come up to me and ask me about being a vegetarian and from my words and from the love i have of being a vegetarian (they tell me) i make those people vegetarians!

I am proud to be vegeterian with two reasons: one, I want to lose weight, eating more vegetable to reduce fat; two, I try not to eat meat as much a possible. I have a problem though, during a week, I can eat all vegetable and fruits but on the weekend I attempted to meat again. I try to get rid of this bad habit. Although those obtacles, I still love to be vegeterian.
Eating fruit, salad, and vegetables make my body for more healthier. I don't get depressed that much. I feel more happy and delighted.

I am proud to be vegan because I knowI'm doing everything I can to reduce my contribution to animal suffering.
Just a note: Most vegans don't stop eating dairy and eggs because they 'don't like them'. Most vegans probably were just as crazy about cheese etc. as the rest of America at some point. Speaking for myself, I was always a ravenous cheese fan, and loved eggs too. It's the ABUSIVE TREATMENT that those animals endure that moves us to change. We simply realized that we don't want to give our money to companies that abuse animals on our behalf. Later on, the smell of cheese becomes distasteful and the whole idea of dairy is just too weird.
It's the same way many vegetarians are actually people who LOVE meat but refuse to support the inhumane practices of factory farms in this country.
Remember - we liked cheese just as much as you do. We just realized we had no choice but to put conscience and compassion before our taste buds.

I am proud to be an American. I love my country and I would die for it. I love it's history and I'm proud that I have an ancestor who is famous in US history. I am proud of all of the players for the US national team. I do not know what nationality any of the players have in common with me but my nationalities are Swedish, Swiss, and Russian mostly.

I am 22 and have been a vegetarian for eight months or so.
My attitude is, "If you can kill it, you can eat it." If I become stranded on in the outback or something and eating a wombat is the only way to live, I will. But in the meantime, there are plenty bananas, spinach, etc. around to eat. And nothing has to loose a head.
I just cannot stand vegetarians who look down on those who pick a different lifestyle. Their arrogance annoys me. Just as those who give me nonesense for not eating meat do.

I've been vegetarian all my life my parents are not but I don't know why I hated meat since I was a baby. I'm very proud of me because I love animals and my beliefs match with my eating habits. I'm trying to become vegan but I love candies, cakes, pizzas, ice cream and CHOCOLATE and I've failed and all my at temps =___(

I'm proud to be a vegetarian because I've loved animals my whole life and I think this is one of the best ways of showing just how much you care for other living beings (excluding humans obviously). I also know that I'm not supporting animals being killed for our consumption.

I enjoy being a vegetarian because when I see meat, I'm reminded of human flesh.
I don't drink milk or eat eggs, but eat foods with it in it. I'm planning on becoming vegan when I get older and move out.

i'm proud because i know that i am doing the right thing by not giving my money to cruel animal slaughterhouses. it makes me angry when people say something like "oh well i don't like animal cruelty, i'm against it" and then go off to mcdonalds or burger king or some other fast food place. that just shows how little they really care about animals and how selfish they are that they refuse to change their eating habits unless it directly affects them. i am proud of myself for sticking to my morals no matter how much people make fun of me for being a vegetarian. meat is ANIMAL FLESH, and it disgusts me to see people fattening themselves up with it every day.
