[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most vegetarians I’ve met are fat, so probably not. [/quote]

This is why I will not let my kids join me in vegetarianism.  An unhealthy vegetarian diet is worse than a healthy diet that includes moderate meat consumption.  If you do not like nuts and love processed foods, eliminating meat will cause your diet to become less balanced.  Being a vegetarian helped me lose weight but if I start eating bread, pasta, and sweets it comes right back.  I think it would be easier to stay this slim if I were eating meat because the carb cravings wouldn't be so fierce.  On high-discipline days I eat raw and cooked veggies, 2-3 pieces of fruit, legumes and walnuts or almonds in the evening after a black coffee fast.  [/quote]
Omnivores can be unhealthy eaters as well. In fact more omnivores are crappier and eating healthily than vegans or vegetarians. It is simply statistics. I disagree that eliminating meat will make diet less balanced. I think those that do not eat a healthy diet will eat the same regardless of their intake of meat. Example, my SIL was overweight when she was vegetarian. When she went back to eating meat, she gained a ton more weight. She is now obese.  Gaining weight is simply due to eating more calories than you burn. Eating pasta does not make you overweight. Eating too much pasta does.[/quote]
