Ok please help?!
Answers: i am 14 and i was a vegetarian. I ate chicken but i refused to eat red meat for a while. It was SOO hard for me to swollow. I want to be a vegetarian again but im sick. PLEASE HELP (sick from NOT eating meat. anemic possibly. or something else but it hurts)
If you are having symptoms like that you need to see a doctor and get a full physical. You ate chicken, so you didn't not eat meat(so it is more than possible that these symptoms are from something else). Even if you did stop eating all meat, if you were eating properly, vegetarian diets are perfectly healthy and do not cause illness.
If there is something wrong you need to get checked out by a doctor. You cannot assume that it is because of something. Just thinking you are anemic is not enough, you have to be sure so you can take action to fix the problem(taking a multivitamin, eating more iron rich foods, etc.).
This could be something completely unrelated to your diet. A few years back I had odd symptoms of something. I would run a slight fever(only at night), and become exhausted and need to sleep(around 7pm). If I had been vegetarian at the time it would have been easy to blame this on my diet(and I'm sure other people would have immediately said it was dietary) , and say maybe I wasn't getting enough of something, etc, but since I wasn't vegetarian, there was not a scapegoat to blame it on. I went to the doctor and found it was something in the liver(which eventually cleared up on its own). It is natural to want to find the easiest solution, it makes people feel more comfortable. If you blame it on diet, it appears you have control. If you have no idea what it is, that is scarier to people since they don't know how to fix it.
These symptoms sound serious and nothing to fool around with. Go see a doctor and find the cause of the problem before doing anything else.
Nothing wrong with eating meat..
Listen to your body.
Not eating meat won't make you sick, but not eating properly can. It's hard to know what's causing the problem when all you say is that you're sick.
You just need something to substitute protein and iron. Look for cereals with a lot of iron in them and try peanut butter. It has a lot of protein. Theses are just suggestions. you can probably find better substitutions if you look around.
The getting dizzy and weak and the pains when you are running are normal. Execpt for the pain that goes to all the way through your left arm. You might want to see a doctor about that it's not normal. that aside, drink more water the day before you run and the day you run. That will help with the exhaustion and dizzyness.
Get help from a nutritionist or your doctor.
Why not take a moderate course of action. I cut back a lot on red meat. I have been making turkey burgers and like them as good as a hamburger. Cheaper and hopefully a little better for me. I added a little more potato to fill meself up.
It sounds more like you are into anorexia more than vegetarianism. Get some books on anorexia and bulemia from the library and find out why you are doing this. It is not about food it is about feeling that food is the only thing you can control.
You were never a vegetarian if you were eating chicken, chicken is meat, therefor you cannot be sick from not eating meat.
You don't seem to be sure what you are sick from. "anemic possibly. or something else but it hurts"
As far as I know (my mother was anemic) it does not HURT to be anemic.
GO TO SEE A DOCTOR!
Regardless of your diet, you should see a doctor. Your diet or your reaction to it may be a symptom of something more serious.
