Two months ago, I gathered all my courage to walk up to the weighing scale and stand up on it. The scale flashed 150 pounds. I was shocked and immediately swore to myself (for the third time in two months) that I would do all that it takes to get that number to at least 140. I resumed my regular workouts and went on a vegan diet as instructed by my nutritionist. Unfortunately, I could not regularize gymming due to my hectic work schedule. Nevertheless, I continued with my diet and to my surprise, I checked my weight yesterday and I had lost ten pounds. I am really excited that after eating only vegan food (no meat and dairy products) for two months, I managed to shed 10 pounds and that too without any workouts. I urge all the busy working women out there to convert to Vegan Food to make up for your hectic work schedule and absence of gymming.

You really motivate me sara_jones. With a three-year-old baby to take care off and a hectic work routine, it gets difficult to remove time to hit the gym. I have tried a variety of diets but that only worsened my situation as those diets starved me to the point that my hunger cravings could no longer take the load and I gave in and indulged in junk food. Could you share details of your diet plans? It would be really helpful to give it a try.

I agree completely with you sara_jones. Nowadays, it is best to go the vegan way. With no meat and dairy products in your diet, the fat intake is automatically cut out of your meal plan. It is rather difficult, to begin with, considering the diet of the average American cannot do without meat. However, it takes only a week of accepting the change after which, you kind of develop a liking for it. I have been eating vegan since the past six months and believe me, I am enjoying every bit of it. I don't prefer any other kind of food nowadays. My weight dropped 15 pounds in the first three months and has been stable since (Not that I'm complaining as it is the ideal weight as per my height).

Thanks, joanna_cooper for sharing your views. I do hope I can succeed in completely turning vegan like you have. For the moment, my diet has been completely vegan for the past two months and looking at you, I take pride in your achievements and inspire to transform myself and be like you.

motheronmission, I would suggest as a start, eat vegan as one meal of the day (preferably dinner) for a week. Have fruits and salads only for this particular meal. Now with only fruits and salads, I'm sure you will get hunger pangs in the night (if you eat vegan for dinner), for which I suggest you break your dinner into two small and light meals, probably salads first followed by fruits (Papaya definitely as it helps in cutting fat) after a couple of hours. If you are really hell bent and dedicated to losing weight, I suggest you also make it a habit to sleep early, that way you can avoid any urge or cravings for a midnight snack. Slowly and steadily (say after a week), start having vegan for your other meals as well and as rightly said by joanna_cooper, the vegan style shall imbibe within you. Give it a try and let me know if I can help out in any other way. Keep updating me on your status, it always helps to share.

Hey, joanna_cooper, thanks for the tip. However, let me tell you, I have made umpteen futile attempts to turn vegan but have not succeeded in any of them. It is easy to say, but very difficult to follow. You may have succeeded in turning into a vegan, but for meat lovers like me, it will always be an uphill task where the summit will be impossible to reach.

What you say may hold true for you bettybotsomebutter, and I am not trying to evoke any reactions in this forum. Just sharing my experience with all. You can either take the motivation from it like motheronmission or choose to ignore it. The call is yours.
