Please tell us about gaining 50 pounds on a vegan diet. I became raw vegan and gained about 50#, also. I couldn’t (and can’t) figure out why since I was eating so “healthy” and no matter what I do now, the pounds won’t budge. I would love to hear your story. Also, I’m assuming that you don’t use oils or salt when cooking. Have you eliminated them altogether or only use occasionally? I love the VFB concept that you talk about here and will definitely be trying it. This morning, I had roasted okra from my garden, but I used some olive oil and salt. Tomorrow is another day, as Miss Scarlett said. Where can I get more detailed information about this program that you follow…Chef AJ? I can’t wait to learn more!
After listening to Dr. Peeke on food addiction, I’m very interested in reading her book on the subject.
I gained 50 pounds over 10 years. Mostly vegetarian, a little meat (less than 5 pounds a year). It was through overeating, and including carbs in the overeating. You may want to share the link.
Your website is really cool and this is a great inspiring article.
