True/False If you stop eating meat in general, it can help weight loss?
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Nutrition?
Meat does contain a lot of fat but it also contains the whole set of amino acids which are building blocks of protein. And you need protein in your body for growth and repair of lost cells or damaged cells.
If you stop eating meat in general, it probably will help lose weight but you lose energy and proteins in general. If you want to gain back those proteins you will have to combine different vegetables to eat and have the complete set of amino acids. Foods that are high in protein are beans and corns. ]
No, meat give you protein and energy to be active. In fact sometimes eating meat helps you to lose weight because you have more energy to run, and play sports. If you do start to be a vegetarian though, make sure you get enough proein in your diet to keep you healthy!

That's an extremely broad question. Vegetarians don't necessarily lose more weight than meat eaters and they aren't necessarily healthier. It doesn't matter if you're vegan or not- if you eat like garbage then nothing is going to work. ]
I'm gonna have to say false. I've been a vegetarian for almost two years now and I weigh the same as I did when I was a meat eater.
Also, if you stop eating meat in general, be sure you get enough protein through vitamins or any other alternative.
Maybe talk to your doctor about the kind of diet that would be good for your body.
:] hope I helped. ]
***EDIT***: Wow, I misdread the question... thats a first. My apologies, I was in a real rush there.
I was a vegetarian for six years (I missed the whole meat thing altogether) or so in my twenties. I can safely say that it does not categorically help you lose weight. Sometimes some temptations are by default easier to overcome, but you can easily get fat as a veggie (particularly if you still eat dairy).
So, I would say the answer is probably "true" since it can help, but not by much, and its in no way a guarantee.
Once again... ooops. And thanks for not giving me the 2 my answer deserved :) ]
Technically yes, but meat has protien in it which your body needs! If you are going to stop eating meat just to lose weight I'd suggest excersing more (bleh, I know) and also eating more fruits and veggies, with at least a little bit of meat. That'll help tremendously! If you want to stop eating meat because you want to become a vegitarian then go for it, but drink protien shakes to keep it in your body.
