I'm realizing how much harder it is to have a vegetarian diet when it causes inconveniences for your family. I think that if I was to become a vegetarian I would need to be in a supportive environment that didn't tempt me. My mom keeps forgetting that I'm not eating meat and I end up eating a salad (like tonight) that doesn't leave me very satisfied or full, so I move onto ice cream! Even though this is just a trial period, it might be interesting to try vegetarian substitutes or recipes rather than just avoiding certain foods. I noticed that I haven't been eating as much as normal (could be seen as good or bad) because when I normally eat meat it is usually with pasta or other carbohydrates.
