if you put 2 people on a 2k diet, on of veggies and one on meat(deficit)
the meat one will lose weight, yes, but he would lose weight slower than the one in the veggies diet.
one would be hard pressed to eat 2K worth of veggies...and they would also be lacking nutritionally. vegans eat more than just veggies. i know fat vegetarians and fat vegans and fat omnivores.
lol, like if eating only meat is healthy...
Who eats only (or even mostly) meat? Do you think we are all eating a traditional Inuit diet or something?0 -
Well, to avoid the kindergarten "yes you are", "no I'm not", we have to present facts, not opinions. Cite, please. I did.0

Yes, you are. Insisting you're right, doesn't make it so. My kids wish!0 -
Curious what you're asking me to cite? Because the article you are citing, by the abstract at least, defends my point

Vegetarians are all vampires who sneak into the rooms of fair maidens at night and steal their souls.

the example i put was a 2k cals diet of only veggies and of 2k only meat, he bash the veggies one but the one that was only meat.
u getting it?
It was a silly example that you gave. People don't eat just meat (well, very few do). You seem to think all veggies is healthy, so he pointed out it is not. No one here has asserted all meat is healthy. Trust me, I've argued against that claim in another thread.0 -
In other news... 12 inches of string is actually longer than 12 inches of wire.
Also somewhat surprisingly, A pound of feathers actually weighs more than a pound of bricks0 -

when did i asked u to cite?
wat
You didn't ask me to cite, I was quoting someone who was tagging you in their post.
Also no one can eat a diet consisting of only vegetables, you will die due to malnutrition, just like you can't eat a diet of only meat for the exact same reason0 -

Chose a diet you can stick for the rest of your life, not for quicker weight loss because you'll gain it all back with getting back to your old eating habits. It's just a waste of time and years of struggling with a jo-jo weight.0

Oh, yeah. The OP.
Hey OP, this is really good advice. If you're not going to maintain a vegetarian lifestyle, don't pick it up for weight loss.
ETA: @MayaEmProject - Did you post that using voice-to-text?0 -

male vegans are in average 10-20lbs lighter than meat eaters, thats a fact.

Yeah it was you and @janejellyroll that I assumed were the ringleaders in that vegetarian/vegan soul sucking scheme0 -

i didn't bash the veggies...i said you'd be hard pressed to eat 2K worth of veggies...and that you would also be lacking in nutrition...i only mentioned the veggie part because eating 2K worth of veggies is not remotely a realistic scenario whereas one could pretty easily eat 2K worth of meat...either scenario would result in nutritional deficiencies...
u getting it? probably not...you dense.0 -

This would be a silly strategy if you like meat. Many meat and poultry dishes are quite low in calories and many vegetarian dishes are high in calories. Protein is generally pretty filling and the things that have the best protein bang per calorie happen to be from animal sources.0

I was vegetarian for 5 years.
Did it help me lose weight?
Nope.
Just eat a balanced diet and stick to your calories... there are no "good" foods or "bad" foods. Cutting out food groups isn't the way to weight loss. When I stopped cutting foods out of my WOE, I lost weight without the stress. If I want a chocolate bar, I'll fit it in my calories. Weight gain doesn't occur unless you're eating more than your maintenance, no matter what food it is.
A calorie is a unit of energy, so yes, a calorie *is* a calorie.0 -
