Make sure you eat a lot of broccoli/spinach for the iron in it, since red meat is gone.

Quorn make most meat replacements. You may find that you really miss a certain food ie. chicken, bacon etc. but it will be all down to will power. just replace any meat dish with quorn.

I did it all at once. Explore the Quorn, soya and tofu section at the supermarket (fridge and freezer section) and pick up what you think looks tastiest and interesting. You can get lots of different types from Quorn chunks to cottage pie to lasagne. Quorn is the most like meat so I'd recommend you eat that as it'll wean you off meat and fish easiest. There's loads more choice nowadays compared to when I became a veggie 7 years ago so you don't need to be afraid that you'll get bored. Go at your own pace and whatever seems to satisfy your conscience. You may want to phase out hair and body products that contain slaughter by-products and/or are tested on animals at the same time. It depends on what you yourself think is morally right for you. Don't let anyone force you to do anything. Have a look at the Vegetarian Society's website. It's got loads of info about becoming a veggie and the definition of a veggie and what to avoid that you might not have thought about. Stuff like smarties and some beers and wines and getting photos developed (the process involves gelatin) among others. Basically it's a case of trial and error until you work out what you like to eat/drink/use and what products to avoid. Good luck:-) It depends how quickly you want to change you diet.
