Okay, well uh, a little over a month ago I became a vegetarian. The other day my grandmother commented that my stomach was getting flatter, and at first I was just like, 'Oh cool.' (because my stomach had been irking me for the past couple weeks) And then today I noticed that my jeans were a little baggy on me. These same jeans were nice & tight a couple months ago. So now I'm starting to get a little worried, because I'm skinny enough as it is.
 I think this is happening because I became a vegetarian, from the change in diet. I'm still kinda new to the whole vegetarian thing. Are there some certain types of food I should be eating to maintain my weight? What can I do to stop this? Please help

Don't complain. Do somethng about it. Anyway, you're lucky. I want to lose weight. Why would getting a flatter stomach be a problem? Most people strive for that. Unless it's getting to the point of being seriously underweigh, don't worry, it'll adjust. Otherwise, suck it up and adjust your diet. I don't know. Your body could be changing anyway. My stomach has been getting flatter for no apparent reason, but that's a good thing.
Oh, I don't know. I ramble. |

I ramble.  actually, she shouldn't just be "happy" about losing weight because it could be caused from an imbalance of vitamins and minerals. since meats and other non-vegitarian foods are complete proteins, people that aren't vegetarians receive the daily amount of vitamins from those foods. however, being a vegetarian makes it harder because you have to combine incomplete proteins (fruits, vegetables, grains, etc.) to receive the vitamins you need. i suggest you see a nutritionist or do more research on what your diet should be because you can be putting yourself in danger if you don't eat right. |
