veggies can be filling. but don't let that be the measure of how much you eat. make sure you are eating enough calories in a day or you may not have the energy to do much. also make sure you don't eat veggies and fruit at the same meal as they should be consumed at different times.

You don't need any vitamins to be a vegetarian, unless your one of those weird vegans, then you may need vitamin B12.

You might want to consider getting a cast iron pan to cook your eggs in, to help with iron.

You don't need any vitamins apart from vitamin D (5 micrograms daily vitamin B12 (2.4 micrograms daily) and calcium – 600 milligrams daily. Especially B12 cause most vegetarians and vegans lack it. Besides, taking multivitamins makes no sense to me as vitamins neutralize others.

That is why it is important to make sure you get your vitamin and mineral levels checked every few months at the doctors, so you know what you are lacking, and where you should add suppliments.

A quality multivitamin is a good idea for everyone. Nutritive levels in the soil have declined significantly since the 30s, due mainly to modern farming practices.

Vitamin D supplementation is also a good idea for everyone. Hardly a week goes by without vitamin D being shown to help prevent or alleviate this or that disease.

A recent Tufts general population study found that 40% had low levels of vitamin B-12. With 16% having a near deficiency and 9% an outright deficiency.
The number of vegans in society is around 1%. And no-one is more clued up about B-12 than a vegan.
So we see that B-12 supplementation is also something everyone should be considering.

Amen to that...as a vegan I take a supplement called Veg 1..contains B12, Iodine, Vitamin D and a couple others. There have been a few studies showing that the general populace tend to lack B12 so even if I were a meat eater I would consider taking B12 supplement.
