I'm not a vegetarian, but I am interested in increasing the amount of vegetarian meals that I eat because I'm concerned about the negative environmental impacts of the meat industry. 
I think it's a good idea for that reason as well as some of the potential health-related and economic benefits as well.
Very true - plant based proteins are a lot cheaper than buying most meat products. 
I agree, I don't think I could be a vegan though, I really enjoy eggs and kefir.
Haha, yes. Don't forget cheese - I know that there are cashew based cheeses and other substitutes but I'm not convinced I'd be able to forego real cheese entirely.
Cheese is pretty addictive, I think it's because it kind of melts in your mouth and gives a pleasurable sensation.
I agree! And there are so many different varieties I'm not sure that you could create a vegan smoky gouda that replicated the real thing. 
Definitely, but vegans are certainly devout to their cause as they really believe in animal rights advocacy to the fullest extent.
True, and I do admire them. I'm glad that part time veganism is beginning to become a larger trend as it is a way to reach those of us who aren't able or willing to be as devout.
You certainly need to find a balance between what you'd like to do and what is actually feasable, so I think part time is fine, whatever suits your lifestyle.
