OK, you're seeing less of me. Here's the skinny on my weight loss.

I'm a vegetarian.

And have been for about a year.

But for me...turning vegetarian actually packed on the poundage when I cut out meat and started eating only green stuff.

I was doing it wrong. I replaced the meat with carbs from pasta and breads.

I talked with Dr. Oz and he told me that we vegetarians will be skinnier and live longer IF we don't carb-overload and get the protein.

But watch out for a lack of vitamin B12 in your diet. And make sure you get your iron.
