PsychoCola, you're apology is completely accepted. You have every right in the world to express yourself as you see fit at the time and, believe me, I've said far worse things.

I'm amazed at all the strong, athletic, intelligent, and graceful people who are Vegetarians. I'm thinking about becoming a Vegetarian to change my life around. I am 48 years old. I suffer from osteoarthritis of my left knee and my lower back. I had neck surgery to remove a herniated disc. As a result iof this injury, I have permanent weakness in my left triceps. I haven't exercised in about two or three years. I'm developing an awful lot of fat around my midsection.

Now, I think it's time for a change. I want to try the Vegetarian lifestyle, combined with exercise, to see how much I can improve. But, right now, I have a lot to learn.
