Final Results - 30 Day Vegan Challenge
Manage episode 310225052 series 3050416
This episode I breakdown the results of my 4 week vegan challenge. Although I was only planning on doing it for a month, I have decided to continue on with my plant based life.
My end weight after the 4 week challenge was 177.6 pounds and I started out at 181.4 pounds. I essentially lost 5 pounds by not changing a thing, I still worked out, meditated, and surfed, but only cut out meat and dairy from my diet. I’m feeling and looking better than ever.
What has really helped me is having the support of my wife, who also did this challenge with me. She has been doing a lot of cooking which has really made it easier to life this lifestyle.
I have tons of energy, I’m still lifting weights and feeling strong. I never realized how meat and dairy affected the way I felt, mainly in a negative way.
I believe that everyone needs to go all plant based or at least mostly plant based. There is too much information available proving how much healthier we will be as individuals and a society if we switch to a plant based diet.
Besides just feeling and looking great, you will reduce your risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. One thing we have to realize is that we have been fed the wrong information over our lives regarding meat and diary.
We are also trying to cut down the amount of processed food that we eat. Many times we see something like almond milk and think that it’s healthy, but if you look at the ingredients you’ll see that there is lots of chemicals used in production.
You also have to learn about the impact that the factory farming is having on our environment. The amount of land, food, and water that is required to raise and grow animals for food production is extremely costly. We have to realize that these problems are real, and if you spend some time and do the research you’ll realize that you need to start making a difference.
Do it for your health. Don’t you want to live a long and healthy life? If you keep eating a rich meat and diary diet your health will be effected. If you really want to feel better, live longer, and do something to help the planet, then you have to start to make a difference.
