Stir-fries and curries are great ways to incorporate more veggies into the diet.

Sadly, vegetarian doesn't mean fat-free. She still needs to count calories (or just to watch what she eats). It might be worth pointing her at Slimming World if you have it in your neck of the woods. It works on sensible eating to lose weight and has advice for vegetarians as well as omnivores.I need some help here.
My grown grand daughter became a Vegetarian (not Vegan) a few years ago. In that amount of time she's gained an alarming amount of weight! My guess is that she's replaced animal protein with high caloric carbohydrates, as green vegetables sure wouldn't do that to her.
Are any Vegetarians here willing to share what a typical daily diet should sound like?
I need some expert advice and at least sound like I know what I'm talking about.
She's a wonderful young woman, and I love her to pieces. I need to think long and hard about talking to her about this at all.
Thanks in advance.
I have another question...
Can Vegetarians eat Animal Crackers? (G. Carlin)
Kayelle, your Low Carb High Fat diet, minus the meat, would be perfect for her. Beans, cheese, nuts for protein. She needs to be very choosey about the carbs she does ingest, only high protein carbs.
A list of links to Vegetarian food festivals in the USA:
There’s a VegFest near you | A Life Vegan
Some of the links don't work, and I'm sure there are better sits than this to find one near you. Its just that its 4:30 am and Im not functioning at %100 yet
