What is the ratio of weight-loss between those who follow a vegetarian diet v.s. high protein meat diet?

Posted by admin on July 24th, 2010

Is there any data on weight-loss for people that followed a vegetarian / vegan diet, compared to those who eat lots of meat / high protein? I have heard varying reports of what is better in terms of weight loss and know most of the facts. Are there any articles / data to substantiate either argument?
I’m not looking for diet advice. I’m healthy, fit and exercise regularly. Just looking for anything that supports either argument.

    There is no difference.

    It is the amount you eat that is the real factor.

    I am a fat vegetarian. I have a high protien diet.

    good luck!

    The most important statistic to remember with "dieting" are these two numbers:

    ALL diets have a 90% failure rate within one year.
    ALL diets have a 95% failure rate within five years.

    So realistically, if you are looking at "dieting" to lose weight, neither is actually effective at all. Now in terms of just general nutrition one could make arguments for both and against both. As long as your diet is well rounded you will be doing well.

    If you are planning to lose weight, just eat a well balanced diet and exercise. It’s not complicated and doesn’t require a gimmick.
