I'm vegetarian (not vegan) and of course since I do it for ethical/emotional reasons I'll be all for it, as long as you pay attention to a few nutritional issues. HOWEVER, it is not immediately obvious that a vegetarian diet automatically makes you or helps you lose weight. Sometimes the opposite is observed, people who do not know how to cook properly eat *worse* upon becoming vegetarian because of the more limited options. I think however that becoming vegetarian might help you lose weight for a simple reason: you are forced to think more about what you eat, and this heightened awareness might automatically help you control calories. Do you cook for yourself, live with parents or partner, or mostly eat out or takeaway?
I'm 16. I live with my mother. Do you have nutrition tips? Such as foods to replace the protein, and some good recipe ideas. I'm not gonna eat wheat either. Wheat isn't good for you. Well, with me anyway. I know that from experience. Vegetables, eggs, fruits, etc
