    I have recently switched to a vegetarian diet. I have been eating a lot of beans and lentils. They are a great source of protein. I make a bean soup that has 27 grams of protein per serving. The lentil mix I make has 23 grams of protein. I don't eat eggs, cheese or milk. I do eat yogurt which has a lot of protein per serving too. Since, you do eat eggs, a spinach quiche would work.

    Good luck.

    Losing weight on a vegetarian diet should be quite easy, provided you watch your carb intake. I liked Parker's suggestions, as including plenty of proteinaceous foods can fill you up faster, and help you build and tone muscles, and help in fat loss. I've seen this work on my son, who turned vegan recently and lost a lot of weight in less than six months. He looks more toned, even without much exercise!

    I agree with the previous posters. I don't eat meat either, but eggs, beans, yogurt and cottage cheese are all staples for me. Limit your carbs (that's always first advice for everyone) and increase your fiber, fruits and veggies, and you'll see a difference for sure. Good luck!

    Lentils, fruits, vegetables, cheese and milk products make up a healthy diet and is great to reduce weight. I am almost a vegetarian. I love yogurt or curd and eat it after every meal. I top it with dried fruits and nuts and a spoon of honey and it turns into a dessert. Increasing the raw foods in your diet helps reduce weight. Avoiding foods that are high carbohydrates in your diet helps reduce weight much faster. Eating more of green leafy vegetables also help lose weight.

    The Mediterranean Diet would be a good one to follow, because it doesn't rely heavily on meat - just lots of fish, fruit, vegetables and whole grains. Even if you don't eat fish, there's enough in the diet to keep you healthy and help you to lose weight. A soup-based diet would also be a good way to go, as there are lots of different meatless soups you can make.

    Green vegetables are good choice for the weight loss purposes.
    You can take green leaf vegetables, cucumber, broccoli, cabbage, radish, oat, and kale etc. in raw form or in salad form to lose your weight. You can also take green tea, coffee, lemon water, citrus fruits juices, and green vegetables soups for the weight loss purposes.
