I was a vegetarian for about 6 months. I was also working out every morning and training for a marathon. At first it wasn't too bad. I felt good, but I ate a ton of food. As my mileage started going up, I couldn't get enough protein. I started to lose muscle mass, which resulted in getting weaker, and then I started to get injuries. I can't stand tofu anymore, and eating beans/lentils constantly ended up being pretty disgusting.
My wife was also vegetarian. When she got pregnant, the first and only craving she had was steak. We went to the Keg, and damn, it was awesome.
