Can people lose weight on vegetarian diet?

Do vegetarians make up for the meat by eating more sugar; therefore, weight loss is not the norm as what I’ve been told? I’m thinking about trying it for several reasons besides weight loss…detoxing from meat and its additives, antibiotics etc., not to be part of society’s demand on animal slaughter and general health and well being.
I would appreciate to hear from all vegetarians and the best way to go into it – slowly, eliminating red meat first etc. What, if any, de-tox symptoms could develop that would be temporary but not a bad sign.

It is possible to lose weight on a vegetarian diet, but simply going vegetarian does not mean you will automatically lose weight. When I became a vegetarian, I gained weight because I ate too many carbs…

Just make sure you are getting enough protein, but watch the carbs. A lot of vegetarian protein supplement items are high in carbs so its a bit tricky…but I did eventually end up losing weight. I like to get my protein from more naturaly souces instead of like protein bars and shakes…I just add some nuts and stuff to my salads…and have some kind of tofu or something with dinner…

    Now whenever it comes to weight loss you should follow these simple steps that have helped me tremendously lose weight, pretty quickly if you ask me. And I’ve been trying to lose weight forever and finally found the correct system to help me out…

    The first thing you need to do is about 30 minutes of cardio everyday, try to get at least 3-4 days of that people…Exercising is one very important issue you don’t want to be lazy in.

    The second thing you should realize is that you cannot eat everything in sight that probably got you looking the way you are right now or the reason you want to lose weight. The pounds come with the food you eat. How do you stop yourself from eating and get a little boost with ousting fat from the food you eat? Simple…

    The third and final step is the correct natural weight loss supplement. For me, I found Proactol to be the best. Now this isn’t aimed towards lazy people that want to take a pill and sit on the couch all night and day. These are to tremendously help out with dieting and exercising. For me they were great because with my diet, they basically take out up to 28% of the fat you intake. Not to mention the killer appetite suppressant Proactol is. Every day you will fall under your calorie intake and find yourself one more day closer to your goal.

    These steps really worked for me, you should try them out for yourself even if you want to lose very little or that extra mile. Also at the time of my 3 month supply purchase of Proactol, I saved a lot of money on it at theweightlossplace .com

    Good luck and I hope this helps you out for your weight loss goals.
