Can a vegetarian be on the Atkins Diet?

Lowcarbfriends.com Low Carb Diet Newbies FAQ's
Animal proteins are a vital component of the Atkins Diet and the diet cannot be done as successfully without them. They contain many essential fatty acids that cannot be found in any other sources. There are patients, however, for whom we derive a modified ovo-lacto vegetarian diet; they can eat eggs, cheese and tofu for their protein (although it is usually necessary for a person to be able to eat fish, in addition, for the diet to be enjoyable). A vegan cannot be on the Atkins Diet.

Will I lose weight if I go on a vegetarian diet?

Personal Training and Fitness Coaching : Frequently Asked Qu...
That depends on how you eat overall. A vegetarian diet is not automatically a low-fat diet. Deep-fried vegetables have more fat than a grilled, skinless chicken breast. Vegetarians who rely on nuts and full-fat dairy products for their protein (versus beans and peas) and have a low intake of fruits and vegetables could find themselves on a higher-fat diet than someone whose daily menu includes lean meats along with plenty of steamed vegetables and fresh fruits.

I'm a Vegetarian and do not want to feed meat to my pet. Can I still feed a raw diet?

BARF for Beginners - Most Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely, you can feed your pet a vegetarian diet. But the most important thing you will need to remember, since your pet won't be getting any meat, is to feed high quality protein with the meals, just as you do. The amino acids in meat are essential nutrients, and if you're not feeding meat, your pet will get all the necessary amino acids from tofu, grains and beans. As you learn more about feeding a raw diet, you'll likely bump into many people who are totally against feeding grains.
