1. Know WHY you are stopping -Affirm with yourself the many advantages of the becoming vegetarian and any other reason which you take to convert so that it is first in your spirit. Large Dr. Malachi York once says it makes without making and very from professor obtains gives, thus do it in your spirit initially and then the physical acts will be simple as it was already made. When we are confronted with something it is difficult to make that, we can always propose the majority of the excuses as for why we cannot do it, in this way we will fail before we even started.

2. Plan when to stop – Failing to plan is planning to fail. It is helpful to set a date to stop, try a weekend when you can spend some time cooking, or maybe the start of the week so you can use the weekend to prepare.

3. Stock up to stop – Once you have your stopping date decided, work out the vegetarian foods you like and stock up on them. This can be quite an exciting time, you can get some wonderful exotic recipes that you have never tried before. Use some ingredients that you wouldn’t normally use, the more variety you have the better. I have found that a lot of meat eaters are not that adventurous with their diet, if this is you, now is the time to live a little.

4. Prepare to stop – Have a few days prior to stopping where you wean yourself off meat. This can be done effectively with meat substitutes, which may form a large potion of your new diet if you miss the taste or texture of meat. Try limiting you meat intake to once a day a few day before stopping, replacing the meat with the substitutes, so that your body gets used to it gradually. Don’t however, use this as an excuse to keep eating meat, 7 – 10 day is the most you should need once you mentally prepare yourself to stop.

5. Stop – Hooraay!!! Congratulations!!! Reap the benefits and rewards of the vegetarian lifestyle.
