What should I tell my grandma?

I said something about trying to become vegetarian and she seemed worried and asked why I want to. I don't want to tell her that I think I'm a fat ass so I don't know what to do.

If you think giving up meat alone will make you lose weight, your grandma has a right to worry.

What do you mean?

@repeters1027: You said you think you are a fat ass and that is why you are giving up meat.

@Gumba1000: I'm planning on eating more fruits and vegetables and cutting out junk food all together.

@repeters1027: That's better but you will lose more weight by doing that and continuing to eat meat.

@Gumba1000: Really? How?

@repeters1027: Because meat makes you feel full and the feeling lasts longer than anything else you can eat. Therefore you are less likely to eat rubish food in between meals. Also protein is a bodily requirement. Eat lean meat, don't cut it out.

@Gumba1000: Drinking a lot of water also helps with hunger. There is protein in other foods.

@repeters1027: Not as much as is in meat. Also the texture and viscous fibrous nature of meat is harder to break down so keeps you full.
