Why do you need protein? You know your body is full of protein. Diseases like Alzheimer’s are caused by a build up of protein in the brain. If you weren’t eating so much protein then your body would use that protein. Also your skin is made of protein, and your body can use that too. Just saying or you can eat like 200 g of…

I have a T-Fal one and I use it for sweet potatoes and hashbrowns. I made spring rolls in it once, they were ok.

As a fat vegan, I can say you need to still watch calories, 2000 calories of kale is still 2000 calories. I have dermatitis and it was not caused by my diet but by soap. I put cold pressed flax seed oil on it and it helps. As for weight gain, limit nuts and simple carbs. Keep fruit to a minimum and eat mostly greens and…

Intermittent fasting helped me to stop binging. You can’t binge if your eating time is only 4 hours. Although my eating window is 8 hours now and I purposely make it so that it’s not late at night, I know I can’t binge because it’s not my eating time. I eat from 12:30 to 7:30 every day if it’s 10 pm, I can’t eat because…

Iron Vegan is the only protein powder I drink. I find all other ones to be chalky and weird.

I do intermittent fasting and for 1300 calories into two or even one meal. Feel great and losing weight.

My dinner was 1000 calories and it’s lentil soup on rice with Pumpkin seeds. Of course I do intermittent fasting so this was my only meal.

I like Iron Vegan. Best taste and consistency hands down.

All the carbs basically lol

I poop 3 times a day on a strict schedule where I know exactly when. Not pooping for 2 weeks would make me feel really weird.

Drink a protein shake before dinner or drink lots of water so you won’t feel like having seconds. Or don’t eat stuff that’s tasty enough to want seconds. I never want seconds of broccoli and brown rice... never.

I just take my preworkout and go hard. I have a hard time working out when I can taste food especially a banana or apple. Makes my stomach hurt.

B12 is not made by animals. It’s made by the bacteria inside animals which humans cannot produce. That’s why it’s in dairy. Plant based sources of B12 include tempeh, kimchi and other fermented foods. B12 is super important so getting enough is key but lots of omnivores have deficencies because of a lack of the enzymes in…

If you are one of those people that’s constantly hungry and a binge eater, I think intermittent fasting is amazing. That’s me and I find I’m finally not literally hungry enough to kill lol I feel great and it’s showing me a lot about my body and connection to food. I’m only 2 weeks in and I eat a lot of carbs because…

I just want to say I love all these shows. I wish there were more shows about being healthy and getting your life together.

Have you read the plan by Lyn Genet? It talks a lot about inflammation and individual food reactions.

I eat it sometimes . I melt it down and use it in cakes. Frying with it makes food taste like coconut lol But remember any fat that turns solid when it’s cold isn’t that good for you.

It’s hard not to eat too many carbs but as I have learned it really doesn’t matter. I’m fat because some junk foods are vegan like fries. Read the Starch Solution, it will show you why “omg where do you get your protein” is so dumb to say to vegans. Good for you for trying to help the environment and the world by eating…

With a fork.

Good for you!!! The mass production of animals is gross and weird. Eat plants!!!!

Intermittent fasting helped me to stop thinking about food 24/7. I fast for 16 hours and I never eat breakfast because it makes me hungrier throughout the day. I eat my first meal at noon and my second at 6 and I feel a lot less hungry than when I was eating 3 meals a day. I don’t go to bed dreaming of pancakes or…

I follow 16:8. It works for me even though I haven’t lost much weight. It’s helping to break the cycle of constantly having to eat or snack on something. I have my first meal at noon and a second larger meal around 5 or 6. I do drink a lot of tea and water though in the morning and sometimes I have them with lemon. If I’m…

Rice, pasta, nuts. Seriously I’m fat I don’t think eating enough calories has ever been a problem being vegan.

I used to have a problem with the Amy’s burritos. I seriously can’t buy them because I just eat them all.

I drank waaaay too much over the holidays and packed on 10 lbs in that time. Not drinking for right now to cut down.

Hi, My SW is 240 - heaviest I have ever been :( it’s been a bad year of stress and emotional eating coupled with deaths in the family and a *kitten* job situation. GW is 150. No more excuses.

It hurt a lot and I'm not fully weened off coffee at all but I don't need it like I used to. I had bad headaches, and sometimes they still happen but I was a 3+ cup a day person. Sometimes I drink a tea if I really need something.

No the school cafeteria is gross lol

Wow, I would not have the will power to work there lol

I think that would be to hard for me personally but I know it worked well for high carb Hannah. I just can't do low sugar because I love fruit in the morning but I kind of already do very little oil or salt.
