Has anyone that has stopped eating red meat noticed weight loss??

Question: For the last two months I've given up eating red meat just to help me get healthier. I've never had any health problems (ex. blood pressure, chloesterol) but i don't want to start either. I am a little overweight but i get checked out yearly and i don't have any issues other than my doctor telling me i need to lose a little weight. I've noticed in the last two months that I have lost weight in my midsection without exercise and i know that the only thing im doing different is eating only turkey, chicken and sometimes codfish. I've heard different things from different people such as Pork doesnt put anymore weight on you than any other meat and then you have the people who say that All red meat is bad for you . Don't get me wrong when i was eating red meat i wasnt a glutton for it my weight was mostly put on by being sedentary at work. I still eat the same amount of food that I've always eaten its just now there is no red meat involved. I'd just like to hear some other opinions.

Answers: I'm a red meat enthusiast and have not tested the theory, but it has been said that portions of red meat remain undigested in the intestinal tract for long periods of time, causing bloating. It also depends on the KIND of red meat you ingest, and it's ratio of saturated fat to lean protein. You're obviously on the right track for your body and metabolism; my teenaged daughter has a friend who lost appreciable weight going strictly vegetarian.

Red meat is bad for you. You have removed it from your diet so you are on the right track. Cut back on fried foods. Eat more steamed Veggies and fruits. Detox your system and take antioxidants from natural products. You will be healthier and slimmer.
