Frani,
Sounds like you are doing great. Congrats on the healthy choices you’re making. It’s more than weight, isn’t it? I am Pescatarian moving toward Vegan. I would say I eat 90% Plant Based. Twice a week though, I have wild caught fish. I eat a very small amount of dairy too. This works for me.
David, I have a couple of groups on Facebook that I get recipe inspiration from. Vegan Enthusiasts is one. Google searces for vegan recipes are very fruitful too. Maybe we should collaborate on a Vegan cookbook some day!
Kell, I’ve done something similar. I’ve been on Juice Plus, six fruit and veggie capsules daily, ( I empty them into their protein shake since I can’t swallow them easily) I also add a banana , spinach, blueberries, etc. I am supposed to have two of the shakes a day but one gets me so satisfied, then I have a good dinner. I have lost 10 lbs in about 2 mo. I will feel even better after losing another 10. !!! I found out about Juice Plus after my girlfriends husband had a liver transplant, recovery slow and after a year, he still could not process mentally or get his strength back. A friend of hers introduced them to Juice Plus and it has changed their life. It took a few months but his strength and cognitive ability has improved so much, they are elated. They are strong in their faith as well! Besides losing the extra lbs, my Gerd is almost non existent!! Would you say you have become a vegetarian? You look great!
Have you found a good source for recipes? Are you also staying away from dairy and gluten?
