Hi,

I´m also a vegetarian, since I´m 9 years old (so it´s nearly my half live).  This is, because when I was 9 I realized that all the hamburgers und sausages I ate came from the cute lambs, cows, fishes and pigs I love so much. Then I looked at my rabbit and I was very shocked to imagine that people were able to kill and even eat him, that’s really cruel. From that moment I never feel hungry to eat meat, I would actually prefer it to starve, than to eat it.

 

In my opinion all the things, that some people argue with like: “it`s unhealthy, your body need meat to grow up, ……….” I really think that’s all totally shit. Like I mention above I don’t eat any meat or fish, since 1999 and now I´m 17 and I have a completely fit and healthy body what also shows a blood sample at the doctor. I think it is because I eat a lot of cheese, nuts and drink so many milk.

And the crazy rumor, that you need meat to grow up,…… I´m a girl and 178 cm tall.

 

I really hope more peaple would think about, what they eat and what they do to all the poor animals which can´t  defend themselves.

Please think about my words, it´s really true.

some people dont eat meat because they feel sorry when animals killed,, and they want to stop that

but its not a good reason.. I mean when god create us and create animals he allow for us to eat them,, and its part Of Ecosystem when we kill animals to eat them
