eating meat or to not eat meat??

Question

I’ve been vegetarian for almost 3 years now. When i first went vegetarian i lost about 10 pounds. But now i’m about 20 pounds heavier and i’m REALLY wanting to lose fat. I know i’m going to need about 120 grams of protein a day, and being vegetarian i’m having a hard time doing that. What have you found most helpful? Should i eat meat or while that’s cause me to gain water weight?

Answer

I mean, I guess ask yourself why you went vegetarian in the first place. Is it from a place of compassion towards animals, or did you primarily do it to lose weight? I’ve been vegetarian for 9plus years for the compassion aspect, but that’s just me 🤷🏻‍♀️ if you really feel like eating meat will make you happier, go for it. BUT that being said, there are so many other sources to find clean protein that come from somewhere else besides meat. Just a quick google search away for tons of recipes! Also theres a lot of amazing vegan youtubers out there. If you REALLY wanna lose weight, I recommend going vegan even for a few weeks just to try it.

Answer

There isn't as much protein in meat as there is fat and I think it isn't worth it to start eating it only to lose weight I don't even think that would work. You better stick to all beans, lentils, chickpeas, split peas, tofu aldo nuts are good.

Answer

I personally find it better for myself to eat meat. When I don’t eat meat, I resort to eating basically cereal and junk all the time. Eating some chicken helps me eat a decent dinner and keeps me full.

Answer

I actually gained weight when I was a vegetarian. I got sick too. Dr told me to eat meat. I did and never looked back. I love my steak now.. 5 yrs was way too long.

Answer

I’m a meat eater- I understand there are some bigger plants that don’t treat their animals well at all. But organic can be just as cruel to animals (many doctors don’t give their sick animals medicine when needed so they can still get organic prices). So I buy from local butchers and meat markets; ones that I’m familiar with and all that. 
There are plenty of ways to eat meat and not support the cruel companies. But, with that said, there are other forms of protein if you want to
Stick to being vegetarian :)

Answer

Lots of snack food is vegetarian. That might be contributing. 
Also, start eating mean slowly if you’re going to. Many people get sick eating meat after a period of not.
