Quinoa Protein

Can a serious ballerina go vegetarian?

I’m an extremely serious dancer and I plan to have a professional ballet career. I also want to be vegetarian, for many reasons. Would it be unhealthy for me to cut meat out of my diet, because of my dance? My mom is arguing with me about it because she says I won’t get enough protein from beans, nuts, quinoa, tofu, things like that. Please help me!
i’m 13 and still “growing”. should i wait until i’m finished?

There’s absolutely no reason you can’t go veggie and be healthy whatever you do, even extreme excercise like ballet.

It might be worth making sure you eat the right veggies to give your body what it needs though. Also vitamin tablets might be a good idea (that meat eaters on the whole, me included, actually more often need than veggies)

Good luck.
