No meat, Fish rarely...
I have done this before and lost 60 lbs. Gained it all back when I started to eat meat again. Im not doing this to "save the animals" I am just not a big fan of meat and I know I loose a bunch of weight. With me being female and doing this diet are there any vitimans I should be taking? I want to do this as healthy as possible.

If you stick to less processed, lower carb, or at least lower glycemic index, carbohydrates this probably won't be too much of a problem, but it's something to think about.

Maybe think about replacing meat with vegetarian meat substitutes made from things like tofu, tempeh, and wheat gluten. Of course make sure to eat a wide variety of different fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to get the nutrition you need.
I'd also suggest you invest in a good vegetarian cookbook (The Moosewood Cookbook by Mollie Katzen should be a staple in EVERYONE'S home!!). Also seek out good diet blog to help you with your menu planning.

Thanks. I think the hardest part will be keeping my husband happy and making him meat meals.
