What type is the best?

Now there are different types of vegetarians out there. Some people say they are not "true" vegetarians, other do not have an opinion. Which every you choose make it so you can stick to it.
I choose to be Pescetarian, meaning I eat a plant diet with dairy, eggs and seafood, for two reasons:
1) I love sushi and I eat it about 4 times a week
2) I decided fish was my protein since I am not a fan of nuts

The other types of vegetarianism are:
  • Lacto-ovo vegetarian: includes dairy, eggs and honey
  • Lacto vegetarian: includes dairy products but no eggs
  • Ovo vegetarian: includes eggs but no dairy
  • Vegan: excludes all animal flesh and animal products including dairy, eggs and honey. This could include and products or clothing that are tested on or made with animals as well.
  • Fruitarian: includes only fruits, nuts, seeds and other plants that one can get without harming the plant
  • Macrobiotic diets: mostly whole grains and beans
  • Pollotarian: includes poultry along with the vegetarian diet
It is up to you which you choose to do. Just be aware that not eating red meat or any meat at all can make you not get enough vitamins into your body.
