It's just that not all veggies or vegans are health nuts-some people tend to think that they are. There is a lot of crap food that's vegan! And I've made vegan cupcakes, let me tell you-they are LOADED with sugar. My veggie daughter lives for ice cream, pretzels, and Luna bars. She'd live off of cereal if I let her. A healthy diet limits the Klondikes and encourages the kale, either way ;>) Lynne A |

She has to try anything I make, and then she can decide. I agree very much about educating yourself, any time you cut something major out of your diet! A lot of veggies I've seen do eat a LOT of cheese, and even the vegans eat a lot of not so healthy food. Not all of course, by far-but plenty. Fake *ice cream* is still fatty. Really, it boils down to the same thing for everyone-lots of real food, not so much of the snacky, junky foods. (God, do I miss snacky, junky foods sometimes!LOL) Lynne A, eating as clean as I can |

Vegetarian food is not necessarily > low calorie. Vegan maybe. The vast, VAST majority of vegetarians/vegans I know are *extremely* unhealthy... If they aren't grossly obese they are skinny to the point of anorexic...also a goodly number of them are severe substance abusers, e.g. alcohol/tobacco/drugs (up to and including heroin and crystal meth), I guess that particular sector feels guilty about their substance abuse and so seek to atone their guilt by going the "vegan" route... "Oh, yeah, I do a lot of coke but I don't MEAT...". Yeah, sure... Lol... Every single vegan I've met has not the slightest clue about combining foods to make complete proteins or amino acids, in fact more often than not their pantries and fridges resemble those of lazy college frat boys (sans meat), e.g. frozen pizzas, pita pockets, tater tots, Stouffer's mac 'n cheeze, and the like... The several vegan restos I've been to have staff that are not only dull looking, e.g overweight, bad skin, hair, and teeth, but they are also dull - witted. They need to get some COMPLETE PROTEINS...there is a reason they have BUGGY eyes, they've got thyroid problems because of their crummy diets. This is especially true of the menopausal women I know who are vegans, I'm like, "Girls, you need to get some IRON...". Supplements won't cut it... Vegetarians/vegans in any case bore the uck - fay out of me, they are always lecturing about the evils of meat, they are picky and impossible to cook for... -- Best Greg |

I mean this seriously, a woman *really* needs to be careful about getting the right proteins, amino acids, and such in order to stay healthy...severe nutritional deficiencies in a woman are *not* pretty. At least how you describe her unhealthy diet, she won't be able to have her monthly "time", let alone be able to conceive... :-) -- Best Greg |

It is often some sort of whacked-out attempt at a social statement, or an attempt to be hip or "more ethical then thou." A lot of really shallow people jump on the "fashions in food" bandwagon. And a lot of teenagers. If you aren't going to become a nutrition scientist, you need to eat muscle meat. Most people are way too lazy to give up meat and still get proper nutrition. Lack of complete proteins doesn't just make you ill, it makes you ugly. And, I think a number of vegetarians are fat because they keep eating starchy things trying to get what their bodies need, but their bodies need complete protein. |

I am not a vegetarian, but I actually don't like meat at all. When I find myself being hungry 24/7, and feeling fatigued easily, even though I'm snacking almost constantly (on real food), it dawns on me that I need some meat. Then I'm OK for a few days. I get plenty of milk and cheese and eggs, but there is just something about getting some meat that keeps me from being hungry all the time (well, every 2 hours, like a baby!). Yes, I would be a ax-handle across if I snacked on the wrong food when this happens. I keep fish in the freezer all the time, but somehow I just don't think of it; nor chicken, nor pork, nor beef. I just never want it. Dee Dee |

And best (or worst, depending on how you look at it) of all, it's cheaper than muscle meat. The fattest I ever got was when I ate such things to get cheap, complete proteins. I was just in school, not enough time to make enough money for more expensive food, then out of school and starting over at the bottom of the pay scale and just plain poor. Add anxiety over money and leaving my bartending gig, and there I was eating this great carby fatty stuff at night. Oooo, yayah, I was Abundannnnnza! |

I was a vegetarian for one year, to the date, the experience was enlightening. My youngest son is a vegetarian, he is 6' 2" tall and he weighs 135 pounds. He is a musician, a neat freak and he is very picky about what he eats, yet he can not keep his hands off drugs. He is a handsome young man with big, beautiful green eyes and long lashes. He is over 21 and he does not live at home. I hope for the best, that is all I can do at this point. It is sad to see young people ruin their lives with drugs. Becca |

Diet And Weight Loss Advice For Vegetarians.
I'm wondering which came first.
Is vegans' apparent ill health from inadequacies in the diet? Or are sick people drawn to the diet for some reason? I know that nutritionists say that one can get all the nutrients one needs from a vegan diet, but it takes a lot of work and paying attention. You can't just put a meat, veg and potato on the table and assume you're getting all you need. You have to think about protein sources, iron, B12, fats, etc., and you have to keep thinking about them all the time without ever letting down your guard. I've noticed that a huge problem with a vegan diet, and a problem that escapes the notice of many people, is the one about just getting sufficient calories. If the vegan is trying to go the all natural route without a lot of processed foods, the amount of fiber in the diet will be enormous. It takes an immense amount of chewing and shoveling in of food to get enough calories from brown rice and vegetables. Winter squashes are denser, and oil and nuts have concentrated calories, but mostly it's hard to eat enough. That could be why vegans are drawn to convenience junk food. They're hungry, and the pizzas with soy cheese provide calories. In general, it's the lack of stored calories that cause women to stop ovulating and therefore to stop menstruating. It isn't necessarily something wrong with the mix of proteins, carbs and fats, just insufficient intake of all of them. Of course, there could be a lot of medical reasons for something to go wrong the menstrual cycle, some that have nothing to do with diet. I have the same questions about vegans and drug use. Which came first? If there's a connection (I haven't noticed one outside of occasional anecdotal evidence), was there something crazy about a person that made him drawn to both drugs and the odd diet, maybe something off about his metabolism that made meat disagree with him and drugs make him feel better? Or does someone choose the vegan diet first, then develop the craving for drugs? Or do drugs lead to veganism? --Lia |
