Vegetarian Nutrition must-knows?

I'm a teen who has just recently decided to become a vegetarian. My parents think I'm doing it because they think i want to loose weight. Which isn't true because I'm doing it for the animals good. Since I'm taking all meat out of my diet and leaving in eggs and dairy, what foods should i eat on a normal basis or what vitamins should i be sure to get to continue to grow and live healthly?

Nutrition before and after cardio?

What is the correct strategy for administering food intake around the time of a long cardio session? Some books and websites say that it's important to eat afterwards to replace the lost glycogen in the liver and the muscles, but my trainer says that anything I eat will be added as fat. Conflict!!

Organic baby food vs home made?

When my daughter first started on solids I opted for making the baby food myself but it got to be such a hassle I started buying the organic foods and she loved them. That was 4 years ago though and they are now a lot more expensive. My son is still a little way from solids but I am curious as to what other parents are doing.
