    I'm doing something similar, kathy65carnine. I'm not doing anything by name, but I'm concentrating on whole foods (made from plants), no added oil, very little added sodium, and low fat. Please feel free to add me.

    Noel_57: I've been vegan since 2012, but just recently started this way of eating. The diet proposed in Forks Over Knives is far more than simply a vegan diet. Vegans can live off potato chips, if we want to. This is a far more detailed and restrictive dietary lifestyle.

    I am and also the China study. I love it. It makes total sense to me and is backed up by so much evidence. There are a few good FB groups on it too.
    It is working and I'm losing weight and feeling much better. I would like to chat about it and share my diary food plan for comment

    While veganism is fine, the China study ISN'T backed by "peer reviewed evidence" and has been debunked and refuted by other vegans. Only saying this because that study shouldn't be the reason people convert over to veganism if that's what they choose to do.

    I start forks over knives plan the beginning of the year and very happy with the results. I only wish I had watched the documentary when it first came out. I would have changed to a vegan lifestyle back then. As they say, better late than never.

    And Forks over Knives isn't a science backed documentary...it's a fear mongering propaganda piece.
