    Hi hunnie! I'm vegan as well, more whole foods tho. Welcome to the brightside. You can definitely get lean on this lifestyle. So far, I have lost close to 30 pounds, gained glowing skin and just feel stronger :) depending on your activity level 50 pounds in three months is ambitious. Everyone person is different but a healthy weightloss is about 1.5 pounds a week. Make sure you're healthy and performing at your greatest version. Vegans can still gain weight, and eat crap foods. Try opting for complex proteins, and grains. Keep your protein intake high, get your b12, omegas 369, stay free from simple carbs, and level up your staple meals! All the best!

    Of course! You can eat your protein. My favorite sources are buckwheat, watercress, chia seeds, hemp seeds, beans, and pumpkin seeds. Don't restrict yourself and create a Pinterest for recipes and info. I highly suggest all newbies to jump on Pinterest!
