Vegetarian diet... Where do your calories come from?

2 days on a vegetarian diet. My main meals come from salad and beans. Just grilled some mushrooms and yes they taste great, but are like only 20 calories.
Here is a normal day
1 pack of instant oatmeal with fruit, salad mid morning, bowl of beans for lunch, salad mid afternoon, dinner was grilled portabello mushrooms and a banana .
I'm not really hungry, but I know that I'm not taking in enough food to make this a sustainable diet.

I'm not one of those vegimatarians, but one of my favorite snacks is celery sticks dipped in crunchy peanut butter. ![](https://i.imgur.com/GJNX1U4.gif)

Black beans and rice together is an official protein serving and has plenty of calories.
Soy burgers, eggs, bread.

I am a piscetarian and what you are eating sounds awful. You could eat some Indian or Thai curries, falafel wrap, veggie tacos,bean and cheese burritos....or veggie burritos, lots of different asian foods....Kimchi fried rice with Thia chili roasted brussel sprouts is a favorite of mine.....tons of options out there but you do have to educate yourself on them.

Why are you vegetarian? You said health reasons, but is fish and chicken out? I can understand not eating red meat or pork.

How are you going to counterbalance the drop in testosterone?

i probably use more oil/fats in my vegetarian dishes than when i am cooking with meat. also, i throw nuts and seeds and sometimes cheeses on salads when i dont add an animal protein. 10 pecans is like 210 calories so those can add up quick. goat cheese is my favorite because i can just do half an ounce for less than 50 calories and the flavor comes through more than most cheeses.
dont know if you do eggs at all but thats 70 calories a pop.

What health reasons are you talking about? Are you allergic to meat?

Pretty much anything at Taco Bell qualifies as vegetarian , lord knows they don't use real meat
