I love meat and doubt I could ever fully give it up, but decided to drastically minimize my consumption awhile back (as much for budgetary concerns as for health and ethical reasons). Several months ago, I decided to be a weekday vegetarian, so now I don't cook with meat during typical weeks. On Friday nights when I eat out, however, I eat meat, and on Saturday nights, when we make a batch of tortillas, we typically fill them with bacon and eggs (a Tex-Mex favorite). Not cutting it out completely has really worked for me and helped me eat better without feeling deprived; I don't miss meat at all during the week. Now if I could just tackle my love of sugar...
