*please talk to a dietitian or your doctor, if possible, before drastically changing your diet

I've already had to drop dairy out of my diet, so I figure that going vegan isn't necessarily that much of a stretch anymore. It's not because of moral or ethical reasons, though: it's entirely because handling raw meat squicks me out. I currently have to keep up the charade because my family are kind of dicks about it...it sucks.

handling raw meat squicks me out.

Me too, keeping a box of disposable food service gloves in the kitchen fixed this cheaply. It may not help you the same but it made food prep bearable for me.

Then it's not veganism. Veganism is not a diet. It is an ethical position on the treatment of animals. All aspects of our treatment of animals. You cannot be almost vegan or sometimes vegan or partially vegan any more than you can be almost a feminist. Someone who believes women should be allowed to own property, but not his wife, is not almost a feminist.
