Vegetarian here (not vegan though, I cannot give up cheese...) and yes, people do seem offended by the fact I don't eat meat. I was not a vegetarian when I started the dance, but I have to say, I feel much better now that I don't eat meat. I did it gradually, I gave up pork then red meat and last chicken and turkey. I have never been a fish-eater as I don't care for the taste.

And yes, I get the unhealthy sermons as well from people. I truly don't think people realize how annoying it is, but I usually just smile and say that I eat a balanced diet and take vitamins and usually they leave it alone!
