Fish and chicken are animals. Vegetarians do not eat animals ever. There is no such thing as a semi or partial vegetarian either. Either you are or you aren't.
You could always replace the meat with a faux meat product if you are talking about dinner time. Other then that, just make sure you eat a well balanced healthy breakfast and lunch. There is a great book for teens called vegetables rock! with nutrition info and recipes.
According to me, fish and chicken are non-veg. U can use tofu, mushrooms, potatoes as subsitutes.
You can cook ur own food and mind it eating and living animal is considred as NON Veg. Eat beans and many more protein rich vegetables.
I only eat seafood and chicken myself.
So I guess I'm considered a partial vegetarian?
My family doesn't shop around my eating habbits.
Veggy burger is really good. I tried it at a texaco and fell in love with it. Heh.
ramen noodles are a really good substitute and pretty cheap when i go to friends' house for the weekend and they're eating stomach flipping types of meat that i won't touch with a 100 foot pole.
i'm only 14, i've been a semi-vegetarian for a few years. i seem to be in pretty good health. i eat chicken and seafood though so i guess that's the main thing saving my *** because my family eats chicken alot and i always have access to seafood because i live in teh south. so i guess me and you are two different cases.
