Can I still eat fish and be a vegetarian?
 

I want to be a vegetarian or vegan, but I don't want to give up on sea food, I love sea food! Can I still be a vegetarian, I mean I won't be eating meat. Is fish consider meat? Fish is good for you.

i'm not a vegetarian but my friend is and she eats fish but no beef, pork or chicken.

The term is "pescetarian"

Then that's what I want to be a pescetarian, I don't know why but lately when I smell meat I start gagging. Something with the meat that I just don't want to eat anymore. It disgust me! I want to eliminate cheese and milk too, even thou I love cheese, but I know is not good for your health.

Pesky widdew pescewians. :smile:

I'm so sorry, but I am bugged by people that call themselves a
vegetarian and still eat something with a face.

What that is is a person that doesn't eat red meat.

When I was a vegetarian for 15 years I didn't eat a brownie if it
was made with an egg.

I don't even understand how someone could kill and eat flesh and say that word
about themselves.

No judgment on what people eat...just the misnomer.

i agree,it bothers me too that is most definitely not a vegetarian. however, eating a brownie with an egg is vegan. i was vegetarian for 14 years,and am now vegan. cheese now grosses me out as much as meat.

You choose your diet the way you feel it is most appropriate, and if you like to give it a name, by all means give it a name.
Make one up if you like.
I personally design my diet to my needs, and I do not eat many things a vegan would eat, but I eat one or two particular yogurts and butter milk which are OK for me as well as certain honeys.
I would not eat any grains, cane sugar or anything that is processed, and only drink water and green tea. But this is my diet, and it has no name.

AAHH!! So that's the no-name diet!! :D :D

Well, I agree with you. Choose the diet that best fits with you. Don't worry too much about the names.

If I would choose a name for my diet I would call it the Cheap & Healthy Diet.

If that's the case I can't never be a vegetarian. I was just wondering what category I be in. Cause I'm almost there on eliminating meat from my diet, but I'm not giving up sea food, or eggs either. If I have to choose a name for my diet would be sea food lover, lol :D I do agree with you Rah nam!!
