My mom won't let me be a vegetarian?

Paul Mccartney inspired me to be a vegetarian too! Along with some of those videos of the slaughter houses and stuff. Anyway, when I started being a vegetarian I lost a little weight but it was nothing dramatic, and making veggie friendly meals is easy! The trick is to keep tofu in the house at all times! It has lots of stuff in it that's good for you and it has no taste so you can add it to almost anything! If you just explain to your mom why you really want to do this and tell her that she won't have to give you any special treatment then maybe she will think it over, my mom was skeptical at first too but now she doesn't mind it at all. Hope this helps! Peace! :)
