I would love some more vegetarian friends!!

enkennon

Hi all!

I would love if i could find some more friends who are vegetarian! It's hard looking at friend's food diaries for ideas and everyone eats meat at every meal.

Although I will accept meat eating friends too, of course :-)

I have between ~10-15lbs to lose still.. according to my original goal I have 10-11lbs left, but I feel like I may want to lose a few extra lbs after I hit that.

Over 2013 I have completely revamped my fitness regiment and have made huge gains in that area..HOWEVER I struggle to eat clean.

Anyone want to be friends? Vegans Vegetarians and Carnivores welcome--but especially vegetarians :-)

Sent you a request. I'm not vegetarian persay but in February I read a book that made me cut meat WAY WAY back. I don't have any meat during the week. Sometimes i will have chicken on weekends if we go out to eat. I also would be interested in checking out a vegetarians diary for ideas

I'm not a vegetarian, but I very rarely eat meat, and never cook it. I would love some more veggie friends for the same reason as you... I love getting meal ideas and stalking other peoples' food, but it's not as fun when I don't eat most of the food they track.

Hey all! And I sent you a friend request. I've been a vegetarian for almost 3 years (in January). and i"d love to know your workout regimen.

Hi, I am vegetarian, have been for 30 years.
Don't freak if you see meat on my diary, I sometimes use meat entries if the calories fit what I am eating but can't find anything equivalent in the database. I don't really look at macros, just calories, so an approximation is ok by me!

I do eat quite a lot of the same stuff, especially during the working week, but I am open to ideas!
Best of luck, sending you a request.:happy:

Vegan here Have 30 lbs left to lose, just had my 2nd baby and gained 50 lbs... yikes!!

I try to mostly eat what I feel is 'clean', so hopefully my diary can help you and I would love a friend that doesn't eat meat so I can get ideas from your diary too.

Will add you!

:flowerforyou: Hello! I'm a vegetarian and always open to supportive friends regardless of dietary preference.

Although I don't eat meat, sometimes I have meals in my diary which indicate meat because I'm simply too lazy to add a vegetarian version to the data base. I'm trying to do a better job of adding vegetarian recipes. I love getting new, healthy ideas from other friends diaries.

Feel free to add me!

I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't eat dairy, I don't have meat that often, and I stick to free-range options when available.

enkennon

Hey again! Thank you for all of the friend requests!! I have so many new vegetarian and vegan friends now and yes Vegan is quite alright with me! I just want to see someone that isn't eating meats be successful at losing weight. What is everyone's macros set to?

jessa271

Feel free to add me. I've been a vegetarian for 27 years next month.

LilaLavender

Vegetarian 21 years (Vegan for the past year) I know the feeling well: 'Wow they look amazing' *checks out their diary* *chickenchickenchicken* 'well, damn, guess I won't be looking like that :S' It's easier when it's something you can relate to. My food diary is a lil' bit of a mess lately (trying to sort it out) but feel free to add me anyways I just changed my macros to 45/30/25 - still undecided if it's what I'm gonna stick to though.

I would LOVE to be more vegetarian/vegan, but doing insanity makes me crave crazy amounts of protein... I do vegan protein shakes, but I try to limit it, because, it's processed. One smoothie a day, I get around 34gms give or take of protein (garden of life brand). My question for those that are doing intense workouts, how do you get enough fuel(protein) to sustain yourself? I do lots of soy and tofu too...

ShrinkinMel

Seems to be a big group here. I'm not fully there yet, but could easily go that way. I gotta deal with some allergies/sensitivities right now. I've had a nickel allergy awhile and just learned some food sources I should try to eliminate. So not a time to be reducing proteins when some might be cut for other reasons. I'm also lactose intolerant. Fun deals. I'm sure you will find a lot of friends here that are vegetarian though.

Hi,
Im looking for more inspiration. My husband is a great supporter but I think its easier to relate to those going though the process. I'm pescetarian and would love some healthy meal ideas!

I'm an omnivore, but up until just the last few days I would say about 80% of my meals were vegetarian or vegan. I've been on MFP for about two and a half months, and when I started I really only worried about hitting goals (or limits) for calories, fiber, saturated and trans fats, and sodium, but I've noticed that I frequently come up short on protein on vegan and vegetarian days (I love beans and whole grains, but the volume that I would have to consume to hit 70 to 80 grams of protein is beyond what my stomach will hold). The last few days I've been trying to reach my protein goal, and consequently I've been eating more animal carcass than I normally do -- I doubt it will last, because I really don't enjoy having meat/poultry/fish this often. Anyway, if you want to add me, just look back prior to this week for meal ideas. Some of the meals are recipes that I've entered, so please ask if something sounds good -- I'd love to share (or maybe it's possible to look at recipes when someone accepts you as a friend? I haven't tried that.)

Veggie for 19 years

Please only add if you eat at least your BMR most days. We wont have much in common if you net 900 calories a day...

Hey, 5th year of being a vegan...10 years veggie in total. i'm awful at keeping updated though.

I seem to come and go on MFP, and don't keep a food diary anymore because I found I spent way too much time using it as a procrastination tool, but I wanted to share a few online resources that I love for getting my vegan food fix:

OhSheGlows is a wonderful food blog. Her macN"cheese recipes are fantastic (esp. the butternut squash), great cookies, burgers, snacks, etc.

VegWeb is a good tool for when you're trying to find an exact recipe for a craving. You can search recipes submitted by users, and those recipes are also rated by users with user comments on what they liked, didn't like, or how they adapted the recipe.

Pinterest is my new favorite site. I've "followed" a few good vegan recipe blogs, and every few days I check in to see what goodies they have to offer. I then bookmark the ones either like or want to try later.
