Hey everyone! I'm new to the forum. Any vegetarians here?

Hi everybody!
Just wondering if there are any vegetarians here like myself.
How did you decide to turn vegetarian? And how long have you been a vegetarian?

I'm not necessarily a vegetarian but I don't eat a lot of meat--- at all. A ton of it grosses me out. But I've never took the plunge and sworn off all meat. Lately I've been thinking more about it but don't know if it'll happen.

i'm veggie too  it's been about 4 years I guess.

started when i saw a really gross PETA video.  continued after doing a lot of research about the environmental effects of growing animals (Michael Pollan's work has been instrumental in getting a lot of people on board in here in Iowa) and CAFOs.  

pinkydinkydoo, why no vegetarianism in pregancy?  I don't know anything about being pregnant (other than i'm the result of it :-) hehe)  do doctors tell you that you should go crazy with meat eating?
