Another thing that helped was to hold of 'recreating' your favourite dishes by making them veggie/vegan, at least to start with. Since you'll have just given up meat, you'll be directly comparing to the meat counterpart.

There are so many amazing veggie and vegan dishes out there, have a go at making some of them first. After all you want to give yourself the best chance possible.

It certainly takes a lot of effort to change your eating behaviour, but I've certainly felt a lot better after making the change. Good luck and remember to start small! :)

Great advice overall! Thank you! Hopefully others can make some small changes, too. :) Step by step. But completely stopping on recreating meals is really tough, at least for me.

No worries! Yeah for sure I get that, if it doesn't work for you then it doesn't work, just gotta try and make the transition as easy as possible, so knowing what works for you is always the best :)
