The Stoned Jester Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 just watched it then, pretty interesting research and they got the data to back it up.It really makes you think about your own mortality and choices, quite provoking. I could probably cut out going to fast food places that would be easy enough, but changing diet completely would be a challenge especially with 3 young fussy kids but hell I just don't think I could ever give up my toasted bacon, egg and cheese sangas, that shit is sacred man .

Partimus Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Hey guys, I went vegan at the end of 2016, that combined with exercise I went from 144 kgs of out of shape slob to 79 kilos of mean machine with a six pack. now I am mostly vegan with the odd bit of lean meat and eggs when I feel I need it. For a long time I felt good just eating vegan but after training hard for so long I felt a bit down and flat and so had some quality lean meat and felt better. So now once a month or so or if I feel flat I go and get a nice lean steak and eat that and I am good for a while. I train a lot though, run every day and four hard two hour sessions per week minimum, more in fight camp so to be vegan doing that you need to have everything on point. If I had a nutritionist working with me I reckon I could get enough out of a vegan diet to sustain me with plant protein and if I wasn't training so hard I have no doubt that a vegan diet would be ample. On a side note, dairy is something that I feel a lot better not consuming. I always remember having a upset stomach after eating lots of dairy so maybe I am lactose intolerant somewhat but yeah, after not eating it for so long dairy products just smell bad to me now. Anyway if anyone is struggling with weight loss I encourage you to consider a vegan diet even just for a while. If anyone wants any advice about it hit me up as I've done it myself and I am happy to help others. Edit.PS my mrs changed her diet with me and has lost 20 kilos so far, her exercise regime is one aqua aerobics class per week and walking the dog, so you dont have to be an athlete to make lasting change Edited June 5, 2018 by Partimus 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
