Not a True Vegatarian?

[Anonymous]

So for about 2 weeks now, I've been a pretty good vegetarian...Until today at work...

I'm a portress in a convent, at my old high school, and I was there pretty late so whilst rummaging for a snack in the closet, the sisters saw me and invited me to have dinner before I had a chance to leave...

So we're talking, I'm eating...and I say goodbye after about 30 minutes...Meanwhile I'm walking down the stairs to my car and I neaerly dropped my bag right there...I ate an ENTIRE CHICKEN BREAST! I sat there, even commenting on how dry it was in my mouth and using water to wash it down...I ate CHICKEN.

I feel awful, because I've committed to doing somethng, and because for some strange reason, my mind didn't register that "hey you shouldn't be eating that"...I just feel as if I lost all that hard work I've put in over that useless and really dry piece of meat (no offense Sisters)

Has any vegetarians ever had as big as a slip up as this?!

Hey, don't sweat it. First, think about why you became a vegetarian in the first place.

Then remember that it's not the end of the world. You've been doing it for two weeks, so it probably just hasn't sunk in yet. Nobody is going to judge you harshly for it. You need to just write it off, and continue on eating as a vegetarian, if that's what you want to do.

I don't think you are going to vegetarian Hell. Relax.
