How to Lose Weight Quickly for Women Over 40

Recommended Answer:

No - there are plenty of overweight vegetarians. Chocolate, fries, pizza - all vegetarian, but you won't lose much weight shovelling that into your face every day. The only way to lose weight is to eat less energy (counted as calories) than you expend in walking, talking, breathing etc.
