First Blog (Why I'm Vegetarian)

Ok, well i guess my first blog should be about why i became vegetarian lol. Even when i was a kid i wasn't much into meat but my mom made me eat it in fact she thought it was "weird" that i didn't want it. I became Vegetarian for the first time when i was 13. I saw something that made me sick i don't know if it was in a movie or a documentary but it had a pig slaughter house in it and after that i was just like screw this. i stayed a veggie til i was almost 16 but i was (and am) anemic and my mom and a doctor convinced me my anemia was made worse by not eating meat. So i went back to eating chicken and some beef sporatically. It made my mom happy and it got her off my back. Anyway, about 5 or 6 months ago i decided i wanted to go vegetarian again so i went to another doctor and asked him how i could be veggie and anemic and i told him my last doctor said it wasn't possible. Well this doctor said that the other one was crazy it WAS possible so i was like ok AWESOME! and i've been vegetarian ever since then. I take my vitamins and an iron supplement but i'll tell you one thing now i feel MUCH better now than i EVER did eating that "iron rich " meat! Go Veg! lol! =) =)

*note i forgot about this til my friend tracie reminded me, i first took that veg pledge for 30 days after the 30 days i just kept being veg lol! then i went to the doctor lol! =)
