Vegeterian Diets --Let Me Count The Ways There are several types of vegeterians: Lacto-ovo-vegetarians eat plant foods, milk, milk products and eggs, but avoid flesh foods (meat, poultry and fish). Lacto-vegetarians eat plant foods, milk and milk products, but avoid eggs and flesh foods. Ovo-vegetarians eat plant foods and eggs, but avoid milk, milk products and flesh foods. Pesco/pollo-vegetarians eat meats like seafood and chicken, but do not eat other meats, such as beef, lamb, and pork. Total vegetarians, also called vegans, eat plant foods only.

DIET AND FITNESS
by Susan M. Callahan
Like most Americans, I have lost 10
pounds at least 20 times in my life. Up
and down, up and down. I was a classic
yo-yo-er before I decided to get off the
merry-go-round.
I can't tell you truthfully that there was
one moment where everything turned
around for me. I just know that, over
time, I grew tired of being tired. I grew
tired of making excuses for myself. I
grew tired of being out of shape.
The choice I made was to start.
Here are two facts. Two out of every
three Americans is currently on a diet.
Fact 2, two out of every three Americans
is either overweight or obese. One third
of Americans are obese.
Put these two facts together and you
may come up with some sober
conclusions:
Either our diets don't work; Or
We don't work our diets.
Neither conclusion is any reason to give
up. Research has shown that it's better
for our health to have, as the saying
goes, tried and tried again, than to never
to have tried at all.
Use diets, and plans, as resources for
your personal diet journey, not as
be-all-and-end-all solutions in a bottle.
Take what works and don't despair
about the rest.
Take inspiration from your failures as
well as your sometimes successes.
Borrow mentors from TV, from websites,
from magazines, anywhere you can.
