Can vegetarianism cause Weight Loss?
My daughter (who is 15), one day came home one week and said she was becoming a vegetarian. That week she had been doing a health project and claimed she had watched the process of cows being slaughtered for meat. That was about 3 and half weeks ago, now. I think this might go on for a while. Will she lose weight over thing im worried she won’t get enough protein but i wont discourage her belief.
I hope she isn’t useing vegetarianism as an excuse not to eat. This info will help you.
