  • Today I am sharing with you the reasons you may still find yourself overweight or gaining weight as a vegan, eating a plant based diet. So many think that switching to veganism is going to automatically make them drop some extra body fat, but that is just not the case. I'll be chatting with you on the top reasons I struggled (my first go round) losing the weight when I switched over to a vegan, plant based diet.

    OMG! This video is dead on on all points. After working at losing 25 pounds for 20 years with NO results, not snacking between meals has finally budged my stagnant weight loss. I thought I was a deficient not functioning bad unit all these years! It's IMPOSSIBLE to lose weight when your insulin is up. It takes 2 hours after eating for your insulin to normalize and level out. So if you graze all day long, you will NEVER lose weight. You have to let your body rest after working hard on digestion, so that it can then get on to detoxing and cleansing (ie. losing weight). So eat huge veggie and fruit laden meals to be full, and don't snack. Am down 12 pounds - 13 to go.

      @mjolnir9855 Год назад

      If you spread out 1000 calories of pure starch over 8 meals, you'll still lose weight because Calories are limited. More calories will drive up your insulin longer and harder. Calories matter in the end. This is why Roux en Y recepients all get over type 2 diabetes, despite eating carbohydrates after surgery - it's because they are eating far less calories. Less insulin output, and less esterfication (fat absorption).
      In the end, a calorie, is a calorie, is a calorie - when it comes to weight loss. You can lose weight eating 1000 calories of pure carbs, pure fats, or pure protein...because the calories are what will make you fat. Eat low(er) fat, or exercise, or just eat slightly less food overall and you will take off weight.

Initially we gained lots of weight - this was simply because we got over excited about all the amazing vegan products out there and just over indulged! Since mid January we have both lost weight. I lost 1.5 stone, my daughter 15lb. We did this by counting calories, using an app, and weighing food. Its easy and we feel great.

    Good advice. I am a whole food plant based vegan and I avoid oils but in 2020 with the quarantine I gained 10 lbs. I used to go to the gym every day at 5:00 AM but then the gyms shut down so my exercise routine changed and not in a good way. I still run and cycle but not as regularly as going to the gym daily rain or shine. I move less now yet consume the same as when I worked out more. Also working from home I swapped out my daily salad for lunch for more snacks throughout the day. Gotta either eat less calorie dense foods or move more (or both) but 2020 was very stressful so I am trying to be kind to myself about it.

We’re all different, but I lost weight and felt satisfied and didn’t suffer eating a low carb, medium fat diet. We’re all different! It really does come down to calories in/calories out.

    Thank you for this video today. I’m down 30lbs, but since moving house I have really fallen off the whole food wagon, still plant based, but those processed foods have crept back in. Going to plan all my meals for the week ahead and jump back on that wagon xx

    I keep tweaking my diet and Im not giving up ! As you say the main thing is eating healthy and boy do I ever eat healthy now due to covid . I used to go out to eat a couple times a week but I have not gone out for a year now . I figured it was a great opportunity to eat super healthy from home since I dont go out . Very occassionally I will have a tofurky sausage with dinner ( but just one now instead of two ) and everything else is organic whole plant foods . I dont even drink smoothies anymore . No oil , no sugar ! I started intermittent fasting at the beginning of february as well . I finish eating for the day by 6 or latest 7pm on occassion . Then I drink herb teas in the evening to take my mind off food . First calories I take in are the next day at 10 am I have a coffee with oat milk I make myself with a half cup of organic oats and a tablespoon of hemp hearts blended with water . I used to strain in but I find now that I love the thick creaminess and of course I dont lose the fiber that way . It really fills me up and then in a couple hours later I have my lunch and then 4 hours after that I have dinner , always with a big salad and I make my own sauces in the blender with tumeric , cayenne , a bean base , a medjool date , raw garlic or other healthy ingredients so I dont have to feel guilty eating my dressing because it is a nutritious part of the meal . I dont have a scale so I dont know for sure but I dont seem to be losing my belly fat ! The intermittent fasting makes my belly feel much better because before ( I assume because of the fiber abd constantly eating ) my belly would get so distended and Id be so gassy . Im amazed that with all Im doing that I am not losing weight fast but I think it is a whole new ball game when you are post menopausal . Somebody told me that after you finish having periods your ovaries dont make you any estrogen anymore but the belly fat actually produces estrogen for you . Maybe thats why many women my age have bellies . Anyways I am not giving up because generally I do feel good eating this way and hopefully over time my belly will shrink . Ive been hiking quite strenuously 1 hour a day since the pandemic began as well which youd think would produce good results but again , even if Im not losing weight I feel much stronger and healthier . Now I am adding high intensity interval exercising as well . Wish me luck ! Maybe if you have any ideas about the challenges of losing weight after menopause you could do a video on that topic . I subscribed , thanks .

    It’s Jeffrey, great Video! I’m subscribing. Karen and I have been Vegan for years, Karen a few years longer. I’m 56, when I dropped dairy I lost 10LBS or more. I then moved to 100% plant based. I then got to a high school/college weight. 157LBS I’m almost 6 feet. Here is the big learning, I added intermittent fasting and added coconut out to my coffee and don’t eat until 11:00, have to be done eating before 7:00 (I’m working to close that window an hour or two) I dropped 6 to 7 lbs of fat. Thoughts? I have posted some videos around this and will update.
