| Vegetarian | Why are you vegetarian? | Jul 21 2006 17:53 (UTC) |

| I was vegetarian for about 6 months, not very long I know. I thought it would be a healthy choice to make, only allowing organic items in my body. I still believe i tis a healthy choice but for me it just didn't work. I started to feel weak and slow. My body started to crave meat. I'm still not a red meat eater but I do eat fish and chicken when my body craves it which is about 2 times a week. I'm allergic to dairy so I don't eat dairy. So I'm not sure what it called when you eat meat on occasion but no dairy products. carni-vegi??? | |||

| for gettingmylifeback, I understand what you are saying. I'm one of those muscular girls who added fat on top of that. I can stand to lose some muscle, to give you an idea before I changed my routine i was starting to look like the wrestler Chyna. So all this advice I think greatly depends on your body type, don't starve and like they say add good calories to your diet, atleast 200 more. Oh and don't forget to drink water. | |||

| How many days a week or you using the weights. Have you tried stopping the weights for a couple of weeks to maybe see if it's building too much muscle? | |||

| I did the exact same thing. Don't fret. I consulted my friend who is a personal training and he just had me reduce my calorie intake. I had to find low calorie meals to eat 6 times a day to total up to 1000 calories a day and I'm buring 1060 a day. It sounds hard but it really isn't and I'm no starving myself either, I eat. I just stay away from the surgar, fried foods and crap. I eat a lot fo fresh fruits, vegis, lean meats and fish. As soon as I did that for 2 weeks it started rolling off again. In a few of weeks I'll gradually bring my calorie intake back up to 1600 until my next plateau.
I hope that helps and if anyone reads this and think my personal trainer is wrong, let me know! Advice is hard to come by. |
