Hi Tayamazer,
   aside from trying some of the recipes mentioned in the response above mine, there are usually many vegetarian alternatives to typical meat products.If your family is eating burgers or cold cuts usually you can find garden burgers or soy cold cuts to replace the meat.
 
However if your main reason for cutting out meat is simply to loose weight make sure to consider other options! Lean meats are actually a great part of a healthy diet, and simply changing your food priorities (having a little meat to go along with your other dishes instead of the other way around) can make a great difference
 
Even non meat containing food can still be quite bad for you (for example plain white bread, sweets, fried vegetables, etc.) so just make sure that you pay attention to whats in your food (avoid too much sugar, sodium, and saturated fats)
 
Regardless of your choice, vegetarian diets can be very healthy but make sure you get your proper amount of protein. Meats are considered a "complete" protein since they contain all the necessary amino acids your body needs. While it definitely is possible to obtain such proteins as a vegetarian, these proteins must be obtained from a variety of "incomplete" sources such as vegetables, beans, soy, dairy, etc.
 
Here are a few protein guides to a vegetarian diet, hope this is helpful!

Hello Tayamazer,
 
Many people are now becoming vegetarians, so the options available in and out of your home will be easier.
 
First, remember to read up on how to keep a healthy diet as a vegetarian.  Some people have unbalanced vegetarian lives and eat too may carbs or high in fat foods and forget about fruits and vegetables!  Libraries are now filled with recipe books (as are bookstores, of course).
 
Beans, cheeses, and rice have been a staple in our family.  Amazing products made from soy and chick pea products are readily available in most large supermarkets and are mostly great in taste.  Lots of fun meals can be made with a tortilla, lettuce wraps and taco shells!
 
Good luck!

Hi Tayamazer,
 
In addition to the other suggestions you received in JustAsk, I would also recommend that you (and/or your parents) talk to your doctor about your plan to stop eating meat, and get his/her guidance for maintaining your health and well-being through diet. Your doctor will be able to examine and diagnose the state of your current physical health, and help you and your parents decide if a vegetarian (or meat-free) diet is the right option for you. Your doctor can also monitor your health after you change your eating habits and help address any issues that may arise from the change.
 
I think it's wonderful that you are focused on eating healthy, and urge you to involve your parents and doctor in this decision and in the implementation of the new diet. I'm including below some links to additional information your parents' may also find helpful.
