if you don't eat meat, there are other food out there for vegetarians to get the nutrients that they don't get

it's ok to not eat candy or pie

but you've got to follow the new food pyramid --EAT HEALTHY

The real answer is a question; why do you only eat fruit? and if
you are truly "scared", then what can you do to change?
Lack of food can cause your periods to stop, but that doesn't do
true physical damage to you. But the lack of protein and vitamins
does. Do you suffer from headaches? Fatigue? Loss of concentration?
Irritability? All these are symptoms of the type of vitamin loss you may
be suffering. I know, food was never a real big priority for me and I ate
much the way you describe-when I remembered to eat at all. After 20
years of bad habits I finally turned it around just this year (had somethingto do with turning 40, I think) and I feel so much better than I
did back then. As a bonus-my skin looks great and I truly look SO much better than 10 years ago. So, to answer your question-again- No, it won't kill you but you'll look and feel so much better if you change
your eating habits-even if it's just a little. Good Luck.
One who knows.

You wont die from lack of meat or candy. It is possible to be a veg, and be healthy. I have been one since 5th grade and am now entering my junior year in college. In fact when done properly it can be healthier than eating meat. The main thing you will get from meat is protein and B12, so look out for places to catch more of that. Morning star makes a great line of veg hotdogs, chicken nuggets, burgs, bacon strips, and almost anything you can imagine, all meat free! Tofu is another great way to get it, however it can be yucky and i tend to avoid it. Although you cant just eat fruit. You also need to work in whole grains, dairy (unless you are a veagan, which in that case it is much more difficult to get a balanced diet), and such. If you are worried about animal cruelty look in your area for local farms, they tend to sell eggs and such that come from free roaming chickens.
It takes great self control to be a veg. But it can also be a very rewarding diet, no matter what you are in it for, too lose weight, because you dont believe animals should be eaten, or b/c you believe there should be more humane ways in which our meat supply is raised and slaugthered (thats my reasoning).

Dont forget we are naturally omnivores, we have evovled to eat meat. Hence why i believe people should eat meat. However due to our intelligence we are able to find ways around this and still be healthy (now if only we could use it to be more humane :( )
I have often encountered people who cast a negative veiwpoint on my diet. Yes i am thin, maybe partially due to my diet, but if you saw my dad (the human garbage disposal) you would understand its mostly genes. Dont worry about them, and most importantly dont try to change them, because then you are just as bad as they are.

P.S. its better to eat no meat or candy then to eat no fruits or veggies ;)

No. I am a licensed doctor. Whoever told you that is lying. However it's not a good idea healthwise to only eat fruit. You should incorporate all aspects of the food pyramid into your diet, if you want to be as healthy as possible.

We are all going to die. Some sooner than others, but you need to consult a dietitian, you are not eating a proper diet. You don't have to eat meat to be healthy, but you sure can't be healthy eating only fruit.

Eat your vegetables and whole grains also. They are also necessary. I advise seeing a nutrition expert. She can probably help you on this issue because this is a serious case. Also, you can suffer from malnutrition if you eat only fruit.

your body needs meat, even people who only eat vegetables or fruits must eat meat at least once a month

you should change not only your diet but the people you get opinions from. As for being vegiternian make sure you get enough iron to your system and thats it.
p.s. you can't die so easy these days

You defiantly need to take a good multi vitamin, you will not get everything your body needs from fruit!
