The thing that was difficult for me was that I gain a lot of weight when I eat starchy carbs. If I look at a bowl of pasta or a loaf of bread, I put on a few pounds. In the past when I tried to go meatless, I gained weight and my sugar would go sky high.

I think that everyone's metabolism is a bit different and different people do well on different foods.

For me to go vegetarian, I had to stick to lettuce, cucumbers, broccoli and things like that. I tried whole grain everything, quinoa, rice and every other imaginable starch. I always gained weight. I'm sure that this works for many people but it's very difficult for me to live on vegetables alone without any starches.
