I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian, to be specific, though i don't eat many eggs. just don't really like them much - or scared of them.
also, you don't NEED to be hulk hogan or arnold schwartz to be strong, and how strong to you NEED to be anyway?
nutrition comes from plants - PERIOD.
you get nutrition from animals because they eat plants.
some of the nutrition in animal food is sythesized by the animal itself - fine, eat animal products that don't intrinsically require death or pain to the animal - like cheese or whatever.
you'll be strong enough - trust me.

Vegetarians and vegans are modern day quasi ascetics crying over the pain of chickens and on top of that, idiots. It's a dogma just like religion. It?s a philosophy created by others that ensnares the weak looking for a "cause".
Homo sapiens are omnivores, we can and require both meat and plants to survive. It's our biological imperative to survive.
If you eat only plants and don't take artificial supplements, you will die.
