Comments on: Low-Carb Can Be For Vegetarians, Too http://livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog/low-carb-can-be-for-vegetarians-too/711 To educate, encourage, and inspire the world to start low-carb living Thu, 24 May 2012 05:07:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Haihttp://livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog/low-carb-can-be-for-vegetarians-too/711#comment-1346 Hai Wed, 02 Jan 2008 16:44:00 +0000 http://livinlavidalowcarb.wordpress.com/2006/03/10/low-carb-can-be-for-vegetarians-too/#comment-1346 Thank you for this resource. I have been vegetarian for 15 years now and can not imagine eating meat again. I've been wanting to wean myself off carbs but without meat there are no obvious alternatives unless you want to drown in tofu.<br/><br/>My vegetarianism is 100% my choice (primarily one of taste) and I loathe equally those vegetarians who try to force it down others' throats, and meat-eaters (with a guilt complex?) that reflexively bash vegetarians.

My husband grew up eating lots of meat. About 5 years ago I became a Lacto-Ovo-Vegetarian. My cholesterol went from 220 down to 149. The good cholesterol high...the bad low. My husband that always had to have red meat and potatoes at every meal is now eating basically low-carb and meatless. He will have chicken and fish occasionally. We both feel a lot better with our change in eating. I grew up eating very little meat. My husband grew up eating lots of meat. About 5 years ago I became a Lacto-Ovo-Vegetarian.

Thank you Jimmy for a informative, interesting and wonderfully balanced article.<br/><br/>I do have deep respect for Lactoovovegetarians like Sheryl. And indeed this way of eating is healthy. It is well documented in the medical literature that lactoovovegetarians do not risk their health, like pure (fanatic) vegans do. <br/><br/>In case it was not abundantly clear yet what your position is, then it should certainly be clear by now.
