Hi, for those who are already starting to change over to a vegan lifestyle, I was wondering if anyone is starting to see a weight loss?

I have been vegan for 10 months and I have lost about 15 lbs. Keep in mind this is without actually dieting, I eat whatever I want as long as it is vegan. Works for me, good luck to you!

So are you saying that you would have lost more had you been watching your portion sizes? What kinds of food are you eating? I'm really looking to drop about 15 to 20 pounds from this transition to vegan.

I make a lot of homemade vegan meals. I do eat frozen meals or veggie burgers on occasion when I am crunched for time. I would like to lose about 5 more pounds. I would not say my portions are real large, but looking at the calorie intake may be the way to go to lose those last 5. Everything vegan is not necessarily low fat. But one step at a time.

Yes, I know that calories or calories when over done. My daughter makes a good vegan chocolate cake but it is still sweets. But I believe that if I stick with the grains, beans, vegetable and fruits; I will reach my goal. I can already see a difference in weight coming off. I started this about a 2 weeks or so before I ran across the 21 Day Vegan Kickstart.

I have the opposite problem, needing to gain weight. I may start a new topic on that subject.

Well, if I could give you some of my weight, I would gladly do so. Very Happy It's not bad but I really would like to be the best me that I can be and right now, I'm not there.

That's a good idea to create a new blog and maybe someone will respond.
