Nope, but my mum is.

No. I eat a balanced day. Some meat, same amount of veggie or fruit.
Did you know that chickens are T-rex's closest relatives? T-rex must've tasted like chicken. 

I'm more of a carnivore than an omnivore
Anyway, not eating any meat at all? I don't think fish is included in that because you need a source of protein

Yeah, I heard about that. Some north american tribe converted to a religion where they couldn't eat meat on Sundays, but they were starving, so the government changed that. It was on Manswers :D

Okay, look, I get my protein, meat has protein, but so does other stuff... and also, fish is meat, so I can't eat it. Meat is any type of flesh(Uggh...)

I know vegetables don't give you protein and stuff... I hate most vegetables...(I didn't become vegetarian for my health, I don't even think becoming a vegetarian is that healthy... I did it because I felt bad for animals.)

You know being a vegetarian doesn't stop the animals death. Just a heads up.

I'm not a vegetarian. It's dangerous to your health - you'll waste away until your a blob...
Okay, I am supporting you, go for what you believe. I just find it a little odd. The cow's already dead when you buy it in Asda, you're not preventing its death, and wouldn't you rather put the meat to good use and not let it waste on a shop shelf?
Just my opinion 

No.

By the way you are describing it, you're a vegan.

Vegetarians eat fish (I know I would if it was my favorite food) and they also eat eggs to get protein. I think the general rule is one serving of either a day to stay healthy.

Funny.
I have been a "Vegan" for my whole life (12 years)
It is not as bad as it seems if you are used to it.
I don't even eat dairy or fish.
Now that is hard. Can you imagine?

Scratcher till I take a shower.

Being a vegetarian is a healthy lifestyle, because it partly cleanses your body. However, not eating any kind of flesh is bad. Not eating meat is okay, but you should at least eat meat to get iron and proteins, and not to forget, omega 3.

You said you were doing it because you don't like animals being killed, and I'm not trying to discourage you, but even if you stop eating meat, animals will still be killed. It doesn't matter if less animals are killed, because over-hunting, clothing, and land reclamation make up for that by huge amounts.

If I start eating meat again, my parents will have to buy extra meat, which means supermarkets selling the meat will get more money. The more people that buy meat, the more animals that have to be killed. If a small part of our population stops eating meat, then stores that sell meat would be losing money, because they have too much extra meat that isn't getting sold, so they will have to reduce the amount of meat that they buy from farms, and places like that, which means less will be killed.

Even if I'm just one person and if I'm not going to make much of a difference, I'm happy feeling that I don't support animals being killed.

It's not very nice to kill animals...
