I started being a vegetarian on August 20, 2016. It has been three weeks, and I lost 3-4 lbs with moderate exercise every day. I want to see if there are anyone out there doing the same thing.

    I've gained and lost weight as a vegetarian. Potato chips and iced cream and Indian cream sauces don't have meat in them, so, you still have to do appropriate serving sizes, etc.

    Me too, @NorthCascades . I've lost, I've gained, I've lost some more and gained again, all being a vegetarian (pescetarian) for almost ten years now.

    You can eat super healthy as a vegetarian, but if you're like me, you can also eat an entire box of pasta in two sittings with a whole wedge of French brie and a bottle of wine, so....

    Portion control and moderation, just like with every other type of diet.
