I slowly transitioned over several years. I first stopped eating pork, then started doing a meatless day once per week, then twice per week.
There were a lot of factors involved in moving over fully, but the precipitating event was joining a farm share for the summer. I got a huge box of vegetables every week and it just didn't make sense to keep buying meat on top of that.
I had serious (and strange!) meat cravings about 6 weeks in, but those stopped after a week. I tried a few meat dishes after the summer ended but they didn't taste good to me any more. And I noticed after a couple of months that I felt physically better than I could ever remember. So it was easy to not go back.
