Are any of you vegetarians?

Question

Been thinking about making the switch but I want to hear from someone who is a vegetarian to help explain what that life style really means

Answer

I was a vegetarian for about 7 years. It can be challenging if you enjoy meat. I stopped eating meat because I care deeply for animals & I didn't want to partake in the killing of animals for food. I think that helped me quite a bit in not eating meat. I had a friend who was vegetarian for a short period of time. She stopped eating meat to lose weight, but she loved meat too much to stick to it. (Also some people gain weight when vegetarian. But that's only because they turn to prepackaged food & such)
I did enjoy being a vegetarian a lot. I had to start eating meat though because i was severely anemic. (This does not happen to everyone). If you do chose to be vegetarian, I strongly recommend keeping track of the nutrients you're taking in. MyFitnessPal would be good for that. It's easier than you think to get malnourished by not eating meat. There is a brand called Morning Star that makes "artificial meat" it's all soy products. They taste like meat without the meat. They have like chicken patties & sausage links, bacon. All soy based though. I felt pretty good for the first year. Much more energized. But then I started to feel fatigued & weak. But that was due to not having the proper nutrients I needed. So overall I recommend it as long as you keep a close eye on the vitamins, protein, etc you're taking in so you don't get malnourished.
Best of luck ☺️
