Fat Free Vegan Recipes and lifestyle

Sachita · 01-24-2012, 04:39 PM

I recently decided to take the plunge and do something extreme. (big surprise huh? lol) I have been juicing for some time now but still struggling with a few health issues and losing weight. I was still having issues with blood pressure and blood sugar. It's important me, part of my plan, to be healthy, strong and be an active force in my granddaughters life. She is my world and the truth is when she's 20 I'll be 70. I want to be a rocking 70 year old.

Anyhow, I recently stopped using all oils (for now), no meat, no dairy, no coffee and even though I only smoked very little I stopped that too. My diet consist of lots of green juice, steamed veggies, salads, rice, fruits. pretty much a vegan diet.

I love to cook and I am good at it. I also love to eat what I cook. lol I can do lots of vegetarian meals but admit I'm struggling to find vegan recipes that appeal to me. I need more variety and would like to perhaps get some tips. I have all the links and youtube videos so please refrain from posting countless links to sites. I'd like to know about the recipes you've actually tried and what your vegan lifestyle is like. I am eating quite a bit but already after 4 days my pants are loose. I am going through some withdrawals, especially from coffee and lots of other uncomfortable changes.

Thanks!

There are many vegan cookbooks available on Amazon. If you wanted to see actual recipes, I have a massive collection that I've collected over the years....some are family recipes, others from my travels and the rest my 'experiments'. Very few use fake/mock meats and those that do can easily be adapted using beans and lentils.

We eat fat free vegan, and I have lost 56 pounds in 5 months. I posted a couple of really good recipes in the diabetes thread. There are several on-line groups, and mega recipes available. I feel better than I have in 10 years, and have so much energy! Good luck on this journey to long life.
