    Its what you feel best with

    If you are happy at your current weight then why stress about it?

    Just because you are a vegetarian doesn't mean you eat healthily.

    As you are quite active , it's probably your diet that has you overweight ( if you are, you may not be!)

    Good quality meat and eggs are extremely healthy btw.

    try giving this website a go www.myfitnesspal.com
    You can track calories as well as carbs fat and protein. I'm vegetarian too so I use it to make sure my protein levels are ok. I eat a lot of chick peas, soya mince, eggs, beans and quinoa :)
