A friends query
i "WAS" a vegitarian, and trust me... it was no good. Being a total vegitarian is not gud. Our body swells if it lacks iron and hence less haemoglobin, which happened to me.. and hair start falling. Eat "Everything" including all the sorts of meat etc, but eat it just to fill ur hunger. Eat small meals often in a day, rather then ... Read morehaving big and heavy meal, like a whole pizza(which i usd to do
)... eat whenever u feel hungry. Don't STARVE! ur body metabolism hibernates if u starve.
and so ur body will b healthy and will get thin and energetic automatically..
Thats wat i'v been doing in my holidays... 
My answer
Being vegetatrian has a lot of advantages..it is basically not about eating vegetables only its about giving up eating 'flesh' and all that comes from flesh.
All you need is to be aware of the basic food groups, their veggie substitutes and how to incorporate them in your diet..like you have pulses and spinach for protein which is good proteiin source compared to animal protein. carbohydrates come from bread and rice so no compromise there. Minerals and Vitamins are already abundant in veggies and fruits.. animal fat are 'bad fats' so its not a big deal substituting them with good ones..
you need to be a good cook, to create interesting veggie dishes..even last night as i were eating my cucumber sandwich with tomato soup, dad left his regular dinner and joined me..
Exercise portion control, get substitutes for salt and sugar, quit caffeine, switch to herbal tea..be creative in exercising..
and you'll rediscover you..
No matter what you do never strave!!
What do you have to say?
