When I was a freshmen, I decide to become an ovo-lacto vegetarian, but since then I was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. My doctors say that being diabetic can also affect your protein levels (?), and since I was a vegetarian, I already was working to keep my levels up. Since chicken has a lot of protein, I eat that once in a while. I hate to eat it, but it works better than soy when I am feeling sick. I try to stay healthy with the diabetes and vegetarian diet, but is ok for me to follow a vegetarian diet, but sometimes have to eat chicken? I refuse to eat red meat. I don't go on rampages telling people they are evil for eating meat, I just prefer not to eat it. My friends call me a chickitarian, but can I still be an ovo-lacto vegetarian?
