Are there any vegetarians here?

Hi, anyone else here a vegetarian? I always like to meet folks who eat fruits/veggies and love it. Just wanted to swap those kind of recipes and cookbook ideas, etc.

Also, in the past I had seen people asking what to feed vegetarian family members, feel free to ask me questions.

    Yes, been a (religious) vegetarian for 17 years now, and am raising two children vegetarian.

    Did you see the recent news that the American Dietetic Association finally endorsed vegetarian diets?

    “Vegetarian diets, if well-planned, are healthful and nutritious for all age groups and can help prevent and treat chronic diseases, according to an updated position paper released by the American Dietetic Association. The revised recommendations are published in the July issue of the Journal of the American Dietetic Association. The position was adopted by the House of Delegates Leadership Team in 1987 and was reaffirmed in 1992, 1996, 2000, and 2006; the updated position paper is to remain in effect until December 31, 2013.

    “Common reasons for choosing a vegetarian diet include health considerations, concern for the environment, and animal welfare factors,” write Winston J. Craig, PhD, MPH, RD, from Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan, and Ann Reed Mangels, PhD, RD, LDN, FADA, from the Vegetarian Resource Group in Baltimore, Maryland. “Vegetarians also cite economic reasons, ethical considerations, world hunger issues, and religious beliefs as their reasons for following their chosen eating pattern…. Individual assessment is required to accurately evaluate the nutritional quality of the diet of a vegetarian or a self-described vegetarian.”

    So it’s tomato and avocado sandwiches for supper tonight, with a fruit salad on the side … don’t you live summer foods? (Not that I don’t love winter foods too!)

    Best wishes to you and yours -

    Yes!  Medically tested and told that my body can prperly digest animal products, so I cut them out.  Lost weight and never felt or looked better in my life.

    When people ask why vegetarian?  Best for MY body-MY choice for me aloney.  NO other questions asked after that response.
