We have quite a few vegetarians here. Several times a year I'll enter all my food into the livestrong site and I have no problem getting my protein in. I eat dairy and eggs, but not every day.
My husband is a vegetarian. He tended to go along with South Beach accidentally the last time I did it because that's the food that's in the house.
I'm a lazy cook though so sometimes I end up eating veggie-SB too.
He's glad I'm back on SB now and he's decided to start next week (his birthday is this Friday. no need to set up for a phase-1 failure by starting this week).
Thanks for the responses...still thinking about it!
zel, it's great that your husband is going on SB. My husband is thinking about it - mainly because he's having back problems from being overweight (all his weight is in his stomach!). I'm so hoping he'll come along for the ride.

If you make dinners and dessert that he'll enjoy that is on the plan, then he's almost there anyway.
I'm not a vegetarian, but I have noticed that I'm eating a lot more vegetarian meals on the SBD. There's just so many great SBD recipes that happen to be vegetarian - I've become an accidental vegetarian some days! Specifically, the recipes I have in mind are:
- Cauliflower crust pizza
- Eggplant and/or zucchini lasagna
- Taco Salad
- Shiritaki noodle stir-fry
