I loved animals, too so I went vegetarian, too. I always was in awe of vegans and thought I didn't have the dedication to do it. Then 6 years ago I was going to veg meet ups and noticed most people there were vegans. So I thought if all of these people can do it, I should at least try. I tried it and realized it wasn't that hard and kicked myself for not going vegan decades ago.

I can't recall an actual defining moment when I said "wow that is too much I won't eat an animal." As I recall I remember thinking "there is so much I can eat, why eat an animal" and the factory farming go so much worse over the years.
