I'm proud because it's something I've always wanted to do but never had the courage to try. I've always felt a sense of dependence on animals when I ate meat, and becoming a vegetarian has given me a real sense of freedom. It's a very personal thing to me, and I don't object to people eating meat (I still live with my parents who both eat meat). I'm just proud that I stuck with my commitment.
To each his own right?
