Lose weight twice as fast

Vegetarians lose weight twice as fast as meat eaters, according to a study

It revealed that in the first month of a diet, meat eaters shed 0.9kgs on average, but veggies drop by 1.8kgs. The difference is even more noticeable if someone quits meat right at the start of a diet -with the first month's weight loss averaging 2.2kgs. A major reason why veggies tend to be better dieters is that giving up meat and fish leads to people embracing a healthier lifestyle, the research found. The study by a weight loss firm found that vegetarians exercise more than meat eaters and are twice as likely to buy low fat options.

Lee Smith, the company's managing director, said: "All our research shows that becoming a veggie is a great way to lose weight.People feel better about themselves after giving up meat products and are more likely to adopt a healthier lifestyle. It's not that good lean meat is particularly calorific but we find meat eaters consistently have a higher calorie intake because the meat they eat is often cooked in an unhealthy way."

A grilled chicken thigh is just 135 calories but that shoots up to 290 calories when it is fried by one of the fast food outlets, with another 300 calories if you add fries. The study revealed 87 per cent of people find it easier to lose weight after giving up meat. Just 12 per cent of vegetarians regularly use fast food restaurants, compared to 39 per cent of meat eaters. The study of 1,000 people also found veggies are twice as likely as meat eaters to be gym members. Meat products constitute around 35 per cent of the average meat eater's calories.
