I don't think most people realize that "most" vegetarians (not all, most) are also pretty health conscious, and our diets in general are more mindful and therefore healthy. I know I'm aware of every single thing I put in my mouth!The Lazy Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06738192796915646848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081735431860618261.post-16017085600780166462009-07-31T11:29:07.679-05:002009-07-31T11:29:07.679-05:00Great article, I wish there are more people realis...Great article, I wish there are more people realise this.

I find, too, that if I actually eat junk food like chips or lots of white flour, at first I find it very salty, have indigestion, etc., but if I eat it for a couple of days, I start to crave it. So it doesn't take much! But if I stay away from it, I don't even miss it.The Lazy Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06738192796915646848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081735431860618261.post-69358064941314228932007-10-22T15:04:00.000-05:002007-10-22T15:04:00.000-05:00I have found that the less I have things the more ...I have found that the less I have things the more I am used to not having them and less I crave them. Fortunately, I have always loved fruits and veggies. I didn't realize I had weight to lose but I've been satisfied and still lost about 7 pounds!

You're right that you'll lose it as you adjust. And if you need to go back to eating a little meat, you'll probably lose some then, too, since I think folks who need a little meat probably overeat sometimes to try and satisfy that urge if they're trying to go completely vegan and it's not right for them. :-)The Lazy Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06738192796915646848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081735431860618261.post-43237922604982847482007-07-02T10:01:00.000-05:002007-07-02T10:01:00.000-05:00Another great post, Kim.

Just last night, Brian and I were talking about how surprised he was that had actually GAINED as opposed to lost weight, since cutting out meat and poultry. I'm sure it has to do with the fact that I have been indulging in more bread and cheese than I did when I ate meat. Also, I have eaten out more in general since falling in love (love pounds!) and haven't been exercising regularly like I used to. <BR/><BR/>Your post also makes me laugh at articles that I've read in publications like Veg News that insists all vegetarians are lean paragons of health. When one of the most popular vegan cookies are well over 400 calories EACH, it's clear that non-animal derived junk is still junk and can still lead to weight gain. <BR/><BR/>I've done Weight Watchers for over 2 years now and . Weight Watchers taught me how to notice and change very ingrained patterns so it helps with cutting out meat. But, an adjustment still takes time. As I continue to refocus on eating well and moving more, I'm sure I'll have my "vegetarian weight loss" then! :)Josellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15446698567577764380noreply@blogger.com
