[foxx]

I just finished reading a 10 page debate on it, and it was interesting, so i would like to hear what your views on it are.
I would like to keep this somewhat unviolent, so if you have something rude to say, please keep it to yourself.
heres my story.


I was a vegetarian for 11 months, im 13.[youngstfuz], and my body couldnt handle it. I kept getting sick week after week after week, and i was losing weight rapidly, and becoming unhealthy. Yes, i ate my green vegetables, and plenty of beans and rice milk for iron/protein, all that stuff. I dont know why, but i am slowly easing back into a meat diet, i try not to eat it alot, just enough to keep me alive and healthy.


views/comments?

[Insurmountable]

I had to write a 5 page speech on animal rights once for college this semester. I wish I still had it. I'm vegetarian, have been for a few months and my body has been perfectly fine and I didn't slowly get in to the diet I just went cold turkey one day.

I get plenty of protein and I don't have any deficiencies from my knowledge although I am going to a doctor to have some tests done to be positive.

I'm not the one to convert others to being vegetarian and I'm defiantly not a cow hugger. If people want to eat meat then fine, I want to be healthy without eating meat and contribute to the harmful effects that eating meat is causing on the earth today. When they kill animals they use a ton of a gas to move the animals to multiple places and the different processes that the animals have to go through. The crops that are wasted to feed all these animals so they can meet the demand on meat that the people want. The water they have to use to clean the slaughter houses and to clean the factories and to give the animals water to live on.
