Vegetarians on MFP?

Hi all,

I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian, and I was hoping to get some support on fellow MFPers who have a similar diet and are trying to lose weight and get fit.

Was hoping to share tips and ideas on what vegetarians eat to keep full and lose weight. I usually used to rely on pasta, but it's so unhealthy that I need to cut the amount back, and substitute it for healthier complex carbs.

Hope to get in touch with some veggie lovers :)

  • 18 years veg here!
  • I eat a lot of curries made with beans and pulses - healthy, low-fat, good for protein, and delicious!
  • Hey there! I am a former long-term vegan (now omnivore, oops) hoping to transition back to a meat-free lifestyle. Feel free to friend me!

    It's all about the beans/lentils/pulses!

    ETA: I'm not actually veggie anymore - I eat meat twice a week - but there is a lot of veggie stuff in my diary if you are looking for ideas.
