So um, hi I'm Selkey and I downloaded this app since against all advice and past experience I've ended up deciding to try being vegetarian again. I'm also losing some weight I suppose but that's not what I downloaded this for mainly. I suppose I might as well use it for this as well though!
As a bit of background and explanation for the above though for very personal reasons I'd rather not discuss I've been wanting to be vegetarian for a long ttime but for me this is... Rather inadvisable. The main reason being that I have several nutritional needs/issues and Im intolerant to several kinds of supplement so pretty much I'm hoping to be able to use this to better keep track of nutrients and try and find a way to meet my needs while being vegetarian still. I have better contacts now to help me find foods I need within my budget so that should help too.
I don't know if it'll work but... Whatever number of try this is the charm I suppose I don't have anything against anyone who wouldn't do this especially in my situation but as I said my reasons are rather personal and I want to give it at least one more go.

Best of luck to you! I've been a vegetarian for about 3 years and so far so good. Here is an article that might be helpful. See figure 2 in the article for some additional resources. http://www.eatrightpro.org/resource/practice/position-and-practice-papers/position-papers/vegetarian-diets
