As long as you are eating the right foods to suit you and feel as if you are healthy and your body is working (fairly) optimely, eat as you choose... I find if you eat food as close to fresh as you can get, your body processes it easily and thus uses the nutrients readily, the more processed the foods get, the more work your body does to digest and, generally, the less nutrients available. I am a vege and my body reacts really well to a vege diet as long as I have heaps of fresh fruit and vegies and enough carbo's to see me through, i'm sweet. but there are some who do seem to need meat in their diet. I have heard that it is actually specific blood groups that can handle a vege diet (a groups), and others need meat but - whatever works for you and you gotta enjoy your food.
