Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Welcome to yet another Australian Nice to have you join us, Rebecca! You say - > Hold on > to your hats but i'm not a vegetarian.tho most > people call me a vegetarian. Ah well, don't worry - we don't mind that you're not a vegetarian - there are lots of non-veggies here. All that we ask is that you respect vegetarian views and lifestyle and don't discuss me*t in your posts to the group (and leave any references to me*t out of recipes, of course!). This made me smile: > the day after our wedding [my husband] decided to go full > vegetarian What a surprise! LOL Well, since you eat only vegetarian meals at home, I guess you will have no trouble coping - after 13 years of marriage to your James - with the idea of a vegetarian group and all-vegetarian recipes after all!! > I have also done a cert 4 Community Health > Education, which is a course of how to run > vegetarian cooking demonstration and talk about > how to have a healthy vegetarian diet. Excellent. Then you will know which way you want to eat as a vegetarian. It's always important to remember, after all, that just 'going vegetarian' isn't the answer to good health (if that's why someone is making the change) - a menu of porato chips, chocolate and icecream is vegetarian but won't do much to making you feel well. Btw, this is as good a time as any to remind you that, regardless of other theories on How To Lose Weight (and I just ran across another one, would you believe, that advocates eating lots and lots of so-called 'healthy' fat!), this group is a low-fat group, for various reasons, as well as being vegetarian. > I am also trying to lose weight. I need to lose > about 30kg. ( theres 2.2lb to 1 kg so 60+lbs to > lose) That's what we're here for If we can help in any way, please let us know, okay? Meanwhile, you might want to check our Files and also the Links (both reached from our homepage) - we have lots of good information there, including vegetarian recipes. Enjoy the group - again a big Welcome!
