    I eat mainly vegetarian, but I eat fish/ seafood on occasion, and I do eat dairy and eggs daily. I like trying new foods too though, so I do occasionally take a bite of a new/ interesting dish if it's offered to me, even if it does have meat. I like to think of it as broadening my horizons:laugh: I guess that makes me more of a flexitarian lol, but feel free to add me :)

    I guess technically I would be labled a vegetarian!! :smile: But like Marie below, I also eat seafood on occasion ( mainly just salmon or shrimp), and if my body craves a burger (which is about once every three or four months) I will eat it. I am a pretty picky eater, and I have found that I just really do like veggies and fruits more than all the processed foods out there. It helps that I love cooking and trying new recipes a well.

    Hello! I've been a vegetarian since age 5 (my personal choice) and grew up in a meat-eating household. It wasn't always easy, to say the least! (I can remember more than one occasion when my dad sat a block of cold, uncooked silken tofu in front of me, gave me a spoon, and told me to eat it. lol.) I eat dairy--I'm addicted to the amount of protein in Greek yogurt!--but don't eat eggs, seafood, etc. Feel free to add me if you like :)

    Vegetarian for 3.5 yrs, went vegan but recently added Greek yogurt and the occasional egg whites into my diet since I'm really trying to boost protein without fat :-/

    Me am!! :) Proud and happy about it, too! There is also a group, I started it but I can't tell you how active it is cause I rarely have time to visit.

    I'm a veggie, and I flirt with veganisim...to be a vegan is my ultimate long-term goal :) But at the moment I like having the leg room for a bit of cheese here and there...

    I turned pescetarian in Feb 2011 but have been fish-free since Sept 2011! I'd say about 75% of my main meals are vegan too but to keep my protein up I have yoghurt or milk at breakfast, whey protein after a work out, and eggs if I need a quick meal fix!

    i've been vegetarian for 10 years. for three of those years i was strict vegan, but now (like the person who posted before me) i eat some greek yogurt and occasionally things with trace amounts of milk. being a little more flexible has made dinners with family/friends so much less awkward, haha.

    feel free to add me! same goes for all of the other veggies out there :)

    I recently decided I want to be a vegetarian, I grew up eating meat so im slowly but surely letting the meat GO! It's hard but this is a decision that will benefit me in the long run :-D I would love for vegetarians to add me so I can gave a feel of what I can eat, and what I should eat.

    I was vegan for several years, but it was so hard. My GP says my cholesterol is a little high, so maybe I will go back to it.
