Any vegetarians in the house? - Friends wanted!

Hi! Been a vegetarian/pescatarian for 6 years now. Trying to shed some pounds to help alleviate a recurring knee injury. Anyone want to be friends? :D

    Just joined, but been vegetarian for decades due to a digestive intollerance. Didn't think there would be ANY vegetarians on here.

    So how do I manage to be overweight when I don't eat meat, don't drink alcohol and now find I eat about 1200 calories a day to begin with?

    I'm veggie, I also don't eat dairy (except eggs) and because I'm celiac I can't eat gluten either! My food diary is interesting for sure lol :D

    Just been veggie for 3 weeks now and I really like it. It's cheaper and easier to prep food. Still crave burgers, but I'm working through it - my lentil burger recipe is good!

    Hi! I'm not technically a vegetarian, but that's mostly what I eat! I guess I just make exceptions for myself for well loved meat! lol

    Feel free to add me!
  • I'd love to be friends! I have been vegetarian now for the past 3 years, and I was vegan for 2. After a doctor's visit when I learned I had a severe protein deficiency, I had to start easing eggs and dairy back into my diet, so now I'm only vegetarian.

    Unfortunately not vegetarian, but would love to talk to you guys and share ideas. I don't know how to lose weight without eating meat. I don't eat much of it, mostly when I go out, but when I'm trying to lose weight I'm hungry all the time unless I eat it.
    I'm trying to eat more quinoa and egg whites for protein. Interested to find out what helps you guys stay full.
    Thanks. Add me if you'd like.

    Just started myself. I still eat meat every once in a while simply because my folks are getting older and a bit on the sickly side and I don't need to upset them over something as silly as vegetarianism.

    Hey i'm vegetarian ! I was vegan for about 6 months (i did the switch directly from omnivore to vegan) but then i switched to a vegetarian diet because i find it easier to sustain for me according to my lifestyle. I just added a bit of cheese to my diet (like the laughing cow kind, philadelphia, or babybell) because i can digest them normally but i can't have milk, yogourts or dairy ice-cream (they give me horrible stomach crampes) so for that i stick to the soy/almond/coconut based ''dairy'', and i also eat some eggs here and there.
    Feel free to add me !
