Vegan Lifestyle Weight Loss Plan

By Pamela Reynolds


Once you start being a vegan, you will probably lose a few pounds. This healthy lifestyle brings numerous benefits, but, after your organism gets used to this new regime, you can still gain weight, whatever people might think about it. So, if something like this happens to you, a vegan lifestyle weight loss plan might become quite useful.

Even if you consume less calories, it doesn't guarantees that you will start losing weight. With limited choice of foods, and knowing that your body needs to get certain things, for example protein, vegans have limited choice of diets they could try. Considering the fact their meals are mostly based on grains and dairy substitutes, they have to find a balance.

Taking care about sufficient intake of protein, mineral and vitamins sometimes may end up with taking too much carbohydrate. Since all carbohydrates end up being blood sugar, or glucose, it's not strange that vegans may gain weight easily. Another problem is they consume larger quantities of food, and if something is missing in their organism, and often is, they will feel hungry.

Human organism satisfy its needs for fuel mostly using glucose. Once you get these extra few pounds, it is hard to get rid of them, because your body will use glucose reserves if you limit your food intake, not your reserves of fat. While people who eat meat and animal product can help themselves by forcing their bodies into ketosis, it is much harder for vegans to do the same thing.

The best thing about ketosis is that you lose fat from your belly, and this type of fat is hard to lose using different types of diets. When it ketosis, the body starts releasing fat acids from fat cells reserves, and it uses these fat acids as a fuel, instead of using glucose. The most difficult thing for vegans here is to consume enough protein during this process.

The whole idea is to eat predominantly fats, while cutting carbohydrates, and to also consume adequate amounts of protein. So, the source of fat is easy to find. This may include vegetable oils, primarily olive and coconut oil, soaked seeds, avocado and, of course, nuts. When it comes to other foods, for example vegetables, you have to choose those with low percentage of carbs only.

That's why you should know more about the amount of carbs in each vegetable. For example, you can eat kale, broccoli, lettuce, spinach, cucumber and cauliflower. Needless to say that you should stop eating most fruits, starting with bananas, apples and similar. You should also stop eating legumes, tubers and all grains.

So, what can you eat while on keto. You can eat milk substitutes and vegan meats, but be careful not to get too much carbs when you add it all together. Learn more about hidden carbs in different foods first, and organize your meals to get 35 to 50 grams of carbs max. Try to base it mostly on leafy greens, and make sure you are getting enough minerals and vitamins.
