    Feel free to send a friend request to see my Diary. My eating habits aren't 100% healthy yet (I did make many changes in the last 4 months), but it is working in regards to weight loss.

    Hey, I eat kosher by eating most of the time vegetarian (because i live as a student and have a really small kitchen so no place for both meat and diary. ) When I'm at my moms or other jews who keep kosher I do eat meat. I think my diary is open when you add me. (not totaly sure about that)

    Hey just found this - I also eat kosher and while I don't find that a challenge at all, I would say it's big Shabbat/holiday meals that are the problems. You guys?

    P.S. Would love some kosher/Shabbat observant friends - I think it's really a whole other ballgame, dieting-wise. Thanks!

    I grew up in a kosher home. I don't keep kosher anymore as an adult, but I keep a fair number of the traditions out of habit -- for instance, I don't eat pork or shellfish, I don't drink milk with meat, I tend to overeat at shabbat dinner with my family, etcetera. I also eat very little meat in general -- again, not vegetarian (since, like kosher, that implies something very specific and I don't want to disrespect it) but I tend to eat mostly vegetarian meals with a few throw-ins for chicken or fish during the week.

    My diary probably wouldn't be all that helpful to you, since, as I say, I'm not kosher anymore. But I think that a challenge is probably getting enough protein when you don't want to mix dairy and meat. Vegetarian protein sources tend to have lower "usable" protein, so you need to eat more of them than you would meat to get the equivalent protein benefits. Which, depending on what you're eating, can mean quickly going over a calorie goal.

    Are any of you still active? Shabbat is out here in Jerusalem and I'd love to add some kosher people :smiley:

    *waves* I'm not sure how useful my diary really is - I eat veg/fish out or at friends' a good bit, then wind up guessing what the nearest database entry is - but I could make it friend-viewable if you'd like. Let me know!

    My diary is mostly vegetarian and kosher. I'm working on eating mostly veggies and I get very creative with my proteins. Feel free to friend me.
