I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian. I chose to be that because I'm still in high school, and it's very difficult to become a vegan. I do drink soy milk, but finding soy cheese/mayo/sour cream/any other dairy related product is very difficult.

I'm an ova-lacto-vegetarian. And there is no such thing as 'best' but there IS such a thing as 'best for you' - find a level of vegetarianism that you're personally comfortable with. Better a lifestyle that you stick to than one you're constantly breaking. Ova-lacto-vegetarianism was the best compromise for me (and my meat-eating partner). )

I'm a lacto ovo vegetarian , we can eat fish and dairy. I was born into it, i had no choice, but i'm 18 now and i'm gping to remain a vegetarian cuz it's just way healthier. Recently i'e been thinking about just going vegan, no fish and no dairy. I've cut out the dairy so all thats left is the fish. Good Luck!!

I'm Lacto-Ovo. I eat dairy and egg products. mainly because its too hard to be total vegan. When I go out to eat its hard to get rice cheese and soy milk. Go slowly in to becoming vegetarian. Its a big change. Deciding what kind depends on what you are willing to "give up" or replace.

At the moment I am a ovo-vegetarian.
I dont eat dairy(mainly because i am casein intolerant, but also because i am trying to ease into veganism) but i do eat eggs because my protein is limited(no nuts, no gluten, no dairy)

I feel great. I think i feel even better with no cheese or dairy. I just feel healthier!

The best kind is the one that takes in the least amount of animal products. Less animals will be breed and possibly mistreated if we stop supporting it with our money.

I'm a lacto-ovo-vegetarian. I eat extremely small amounts of food with milk and eggs, and plan on cutting it all out when I get my license.

Read "Eat to Live" by Dr. Joel Furhman. Great book.

Vegan; no meat, no dairy, no eggs. I have dairy allergies, and I find eating meat immoral. And I think eggs are the nastiest things on the planet. I also don't wear animal products like leather and fur. It's always grossed me out.
But that's just my opinion.
