Changes happening with the foods we eat

Over the past couple of days I've been watching a documentary called earthlings. It's about the way us humans treat animals. I've never been so ashamed to call myself a human & be appart of something so horrid. Really. This documentary is horrible. But at the same time I think we all need to see it. Stop turning a blind eye.
Ive always had a soft spot for animals.. just ask my mum. She will tell you how I would bring home any stray I came across. I wanted to be a Vet when I was younger but I knew I couldnt bring myself to put an animal down if it needed it. So watching this really upset me.
So now I've decided to become vegetarian.

I would love to be vegan, or eat completely raw, but im going to start with cutting out meat.
Watch Earthlings and see how you still feel about eating meat...I do love eating meat and I will miss it.. but I just cant do it!
I think even if people just cut back and not eat so much meat, that will help. We all consume way too much. Im looking forward to seeing any changes in my body & finding new recipes to learn and create.
Its not just about eating meat... there are all different parts about all kinds of other issues such as animal testing,puppy mills, animal entertainment and the production of leather and fur.
Most of them I already dont support so the big change for me is to not eat meat anymore. I know im just one person, but everyone is just one person! So if we all did something little each, it would make a massive change for these poor animals.
