- Eating meat gives a person B12 vitamins, and without the correct amount of peanut butter or soy products, a vegetarian loses out on essential vitamins.
- Plenty of beginners gain weight by eating lots of junk food or anything that doesn't have meat in it to fill them up, such as french fries or pasta. While carbohydrates that aren't meat-based can certainly fill a person up, they can fill them out too if the vegetarian does not know what to shop for.
- Eating only salads all day long is not only going to land a person in the hospital for lack of other essential vitamins, but it'll also make a person lose weight in an unhealthy manner. Kidney stones can also occur when a person is overeating vegetables.
- Because healthy vegetarians tend to eat more fruits and vegetables, your groceries must be fresh, which means constant visits to the grocery store and more spending.
- Finding vegetarian items in most fast-food restaurants or less-upscale restaurants can be a task. There is usually an item or two on the menu (a veggie burger or pasta usually), but there is often not much variety.
