Well I am going to try it too. It will be easier as I am living with a 30+ year vegetarian and because the fruit and veg in the UK is glorious.   I am not big on dairy and the only meat I like is chicken and turkey but I can give them up.

What I will find very difficult is letting go of nightshades especially potatoes. I can eat a plain boiled potato with nothing on and just love it. So I will replace that potato with legumes. A tin of black eyed peas in water, with a splash of extra virgin olive oil and herb mix will make 2 lunches for me.

I need to start dedicating one day on the weekend to making veg soups to eat through the week.
