You're not helping.

Meat is not a main source of carbs, meat is a main source of PROTEIN.

TS wants to switch to full vegetarian, so learn to RESPECT the wish of TS.

Be abit more constructive by HELPING, not PROMOTING FALSE INFORMATION AND POSTING IRRELEVANT STUFF. There are many professional athletes who are vegetarians, some only eat fruits. So be quiet.

As for TS, if you feel that it's alright for you, then go ahead and do it. I'd just advice you to be extra alert and listen to your body during the 'transition time'. You know your body best, if you find yourself being too lethargic and not having energy, then perhaps you might need to do some modifications.

Also you might want to try adding in taufu.

My mom has skip eating rice for dinner since like so many years ago. But that was because she wanted to go on a diet. She goes for more protein than carbs.
Wrong. Meat is a source of protein like what Desvaro said, not carbs.
And TS is switching to full vegetarian la, as bolded.

In fact, it's better and healthier to reduce carbohydrates at night. In many western countries, a lot of people don't even take carbohydrates past 7pm, and have an early dinner.

The carbs you eat for breakfast and lunch can be burned throughout the day, as you'll be active (walking, moving around etc). But carbohydrates you eat at night tend to be stored more as fat, because you're inactive at night.

agreed. Esp when you're a very active person.

There are olympic greats who are vegetarians. The last time I checked, athletes are active people. And the last time I checked, oylmpics is serious business. And since you're so into swimming:

Amanda Beard - Won 200m Breaststroke in Athens 2004

Just google and you'll find that Carl Lewis and Al Oerter were vegetarians. Enough said.

Having an opinion is one thing (i.e. saying its healthier or unhealthier) but trying to back up facts by talking out of your a$$ when you can't differentiate between carbs and protein is completely different.

I've seen many of your posts lately (unfortunately). When it comes to health & fitness matters you generally butt in and give out wrong or irrelevant advice, acting as a little miss-know-it-all.

The best was still in cupid corner, you were called a 'dog that never stopped barking' even though you had 'knowledge on the inside story'.

That made me LOL.
