If it’s any consolation, I don’t feel like many people go cold turkey. It was tons of baby steps for me, too. It requires going out of one’s comfort zone to try out some vegan food. And if your comfort zone is big enough in that direction, then it doesn’t hurt anymore to leave a slice of meat/dairy comfort zone behind.
It’s tough. I will probably not be able to even be fully commit until my parents pass because there is no way I’m going to ask my mom to not cook the meals she’s made every Christmas since I was a kid.
But I think I’m ok with that…I’m not trying to win a contest or anything. I’ve already stopped cooking meat at home and next step is to stop ordering it when I go out.
