Is it possible to lose weight while going on a vegetarian diet?

i wanna lose some weight fast and it would be very easy for me to not eat meat for a while considering that i don't like it. if i stopped eating meat for a month and exercised alot (like i already do), would i lose the weight fast?Is it possible to lose weight while going on a vegetarian diet?
Hmm...it's two-sided.



Lots of meats are fatty, like burgers, pork chops, etc.

But some vegetarian meals are surpringly fatty too. Tofu is pretty high in calories and vegetarian things like eggs and beans and cheese (protein substitutes) are high in fat.



My suggestion: eat lean meat like chicken and turkey. And lots of vegetables. Just stay away from pork and beef!Is it possible to lose weight while going on a vegetarian diet?
I dunno I am looking into the raw natural food dietIs it possible to lose weight while going on a vegetarian diet?
There are fat vegetarians too... the people who do sedentary work and take rich food... because the veg foods are also often as nutritious as non veg stuff...



The play of genetics descended from parents could also be there... but you can definitely reduce weight by a PLANNED food regimen... normally more salads (raw vegetables, fruits) in diet could do a lot good..



There are things like "fruit fasting" and the naturopath recommends a particular fruit or combination of fruits to be taken daily (only fruits) for a week or fortnight... and it is said to do wonders... Don't try anything yourself... if there are no qualified naturopaths just include more salads in your diet and avoid hot, spicy, tinned stuff in general...



Plus proper exercises (there are specific exercises for burning excess fat) and a yoga teacher could help excellently.... or if there is no yoga institute nearby, take morning walks (steady, brisk walk swinging your arms rhythmically) that helps you to take deep breaths...



All the best to you.
please understand that you can't just stop eating meat. some vegetables may have a bit of protein but no vegetable has a complete protein. And you HAVE to have complete protein.



For one thing you have what is called the intrinsic factor. It is th factor that allows your body to utilize B12 in meat. If you do not eat meat, chicken and fish do not count, your body can and will stop producing th intrinsic factor . Once it stops producing it you can not make it start again. And you will have to take vitamin b12 shots the rest of your life



The absorption of dietary vitamin B12 occurs in the small intestine and requires a secretion from the stomach known as intrinsic factor. If intrinsic factor is deficient, absorption of vitamin B12 is severely diminished. Vitamin B12 deficiency impairs the body鈥檚 ability to make blood, accelerates blood cell destruction, and damages the nervous system. The result is pernicious anemia (PA). In the classical definition, PA refers only to B12 deficiency anemia caused by a lack of intrinsic factor life.



You also need protein for your muslces, hair and nails. And more.



Point is you need to know what you re doing before you go on a radical diet. See you Doctor for diet suggestions.
