Question by : How much does a vegan diet benifit you and your body?
I’ve recently gone on a vegan diet and its been 4 days. I havent lost any weight, and I dont feel that much more energetic though my skin looks healthier. Have you been on a vegan diet? If yes then please tell me all about what you went through and how much difference it made. If you havent been on a vegan diet but know something about it, then do share.

Answer by Final H
I’ve done the vegan thing two times. Each time I went for about a few months. It was out of curiosity and interest. But I didn’t stay on it. I did feel energetic but I wasn’t sure what the longer term effects would be. As in years.

Don’t forget the benefits that meat has. We absorb iron from red meat better than most vegetables with iron. Egg whites are a superb source of protein. We get protein from egg whites best when they’re cooked. Canned sardines are great for protein and calcium. And sardines are low on the food chain so they have little if any traces of supposed mercury pollution.

Michael Phelps’ recent tabulation of his daily meals conjured up an image of reckless abandon: 2 pounds of pasta, an entire pizza, energy drinks, two cups of coffee, a five-egg omelet, a bowl of grits, three slices of French toast with powdered sugar, three fried-egg sandwiches with cheese and chocolate chip pancakes. The account left many asking, what do Olympians really eat?

Question by hollynikolle: What is the best diet plan to follow for weight loss?
I need to lose 20 pounds by summer and I need a easy diet plan to follow. I work 2 jobs and don’t have a lot of time to prep food. I’d like a diet plan that uses minimal processed foods and doesn’t take a long time to prepare. Has anyone found a diet plan that works for them? I will be incorporating some exercise as well, but I have a knee injury that prevents me from doing anything with much impact.

Best answer:

Answer by .^.
okay, to get into shape , rid yourself of excess fat and lose weight ,,,,,do as follows:

Stop drinking & smoking (if you do this regularly)
eat fruits & vegetables all you can (buy a food/rice steamer to make it easy on you)…(vegetables are not tasty, like junk foods,, but can be as you aquire your taste to them..and are loaded with energy and nutrients)…avoid all junk food, cokes, sweets, etc…and drink water . If you eat meat ,,eat only steamed fish or chicken.

also, do an hour of walking each day at least. or some type of excercise.

* you should lose about 10 lbs per month

I know eating poorly and not exercising can lead to a build up of cholesterol and plaque in your heart’s arteries. I am just curious if one starts a diet and exercise program after a bunch of cholesterol has built up, will the build-up go away or is it there forever (other than surgery)?

Thanks for your insight, I appreciate it.

Answer by susan o
Of course it will at least decrease if you have a drastic change in diet.
Or, you could take cholesterol lowering medicines and possibly damage your liver.
There is no surgery that removes arterial deposits.
Exercise helps some but diet is what really does the job. Simply avoid fatty foods like dairy products (milk, cheese, butter). Personally, I’m 65 and have no intention of stopping dairy. I love pastries and chocolates.
The body is designed to handle a certain amount of cholesterol, everyone has SOME cholesterol and it DOES have it’s job to do.

Food plays such a crucial role in our daily life. It does not really matter on how many miles you run, how many exercise you do, if you are not eating healthy.

A sample bodybuilder diet. To all those interested, I am certainly not the guy in the video, but would totally love to look like that. I am just an average Joe who likes to go to gym.
