The same way as the "meat eaters" have the will to avoid a "vegetarian diet".It's all about personal choice and likes.

Like non smokers have will power to control their urge..lol

Meat products are tasty, but there are even more tasty non-meat products, like ice-creams, cakes, french fries etc.

I am a vegetarian, and willpower has never been an issue for me.

For many of us it is disgusting to think of meat as food, and it doesn't take any willpower. With some, simply being more ethical gives them the willpower.

a lot of veggies i know dont eat meat because they dont like the taste/texture of meat which i fully respect. i dont respect the opinion not to eat any meat because its unhealthy because our bodies were made to eat meat.

I've been a vegetarian twice in my life. I'm not a big fan of meat in the first place.. it just doesn't taste very good to me. The only meats that I enjoy and like eating are poultry and seafood. I hate pork, it's disgusting. And I could care less about beef. I definitely wouldn't even consider eating a deer, rabbit, turtle, or buffalo... even now that I'm not a vegetarian. The only thing, I think, that makes being a vegetarian hard.. is that people aren't as supportive and that it's harder to visit friends and have dinner with them. You don't want them to make something special just for you or go out of their way and have yourself become a pain.

I love meat so I couldn't imagine not consuming it at least once a day. That was UNTIL I took a cruise and had to walk past the "Burger Bar" several times a day. The smell of ground beef cooking all day started out as something great and ended up causing severe nausea (spelled wrong?). I couldn't eat red meat for a few weeks after that because I was so repulsed

Nobody who has ever tried my grilled vegetable lasagna has said something like "it really needs some meat in it"

If you regard meat as "ewww - dead beings", it isn't hard. What would be your reaction if invited to a cannibal feast? Would you need willpower not to tuck into roast leg of neighbour? Or other things that westerners traditionally gag at eating: sheep's eyeball, dog, monkey, vulture... A true vegetarian would regard all meat as like the most repulsive meat you know.

it's repulsive for most veggies, so no big deal wit willpower thing...!
