Happy New Year!!!!! As someone who has been eating plant-based for about 5 years, I am excited to share some realistic tips on transitioning to a plant-based diet or simply incorporating more plants into your diet.
What is plant-based: The diet consists primarily of food made of plants: fruits and vegetables, in addition to nuts, seeds, whole grains, and legumes.
I am not a nutritionist, professional, etc. These are tips that I have found to work for me.

I started my Plant-based journey 7 months ago, and the reason for me was to support my daughter, who was diagnosed with lupus. The transition was difficult. However, I am learning to create new recipes daily and getting much easier. And frankly, I don't miss the meat at all. I love your meal ideas. Thank you.

Vegetables, beans and rice is what saved me. Initially I wasn't eating enough and I felt miserable and was ready to quit. Once I figured that out, I felt comfortable trying different things. It's still my go-to when I'm needing a simple and filling meal. Your channel has definitely been instrumental for me. I started freezing my tofu because of you. It was definitely a game changer.

But Sis, I promise I feel like you made this video just for me. I'm going to show out this year and give my 100%, and if I fall a little short some days, I will give myself grace. I'm claiming this year is my year to go 100% plant based. I gotta plan my meals out just like I plan my week out for everything else. Thanks hun for the video, and stay beautiful not only on the outside but inside as well❤ Happy New Year

Hi Sweet Greens Vegan. This is my first time commenting on one of your vids. I simply enjoy watching your content. I like this vid as well and I too am incorporating more plant-based meals into my diet...love it and so does my body If I had the time to explain...lol. I call myself somewhat vegetarian because I still have meals that have meat...but not all the time. My journey started with a desire to try eating vegetarian meals, and then one day my job was participating in a food survey "Pass the Love with Mochi and Waffles" meal kits that challenged you to make vegetarian meals with the ingredients sent...I had a ball and just never went back to eating like I use to. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with us.

I also agree, make foods that you like to eat! I love alfredo and just made a homemade alfredo sauce for my tuna alfredo. I'll never buy jarred alfredo again. Also, your tip to keep it simple is key. I made a very simple but delicious veggie scramble with cheese over a whole grain bagel. My Aunt and Uncle are vegans and they love it! Yes, Girl, get that protein in! I sure do. It's important.

I absolutely Love this! I’ve been contemplating going plant based for a while now….I purchased books, already started buying some groceries, but have been very much overwhelmed. Some of the ideas you’ve shared I had the thoughts, even down to meal substitutes a day or week at a time, planning ahead of time and not going cold turkey. Overall I felt like I was not on the right plane as far as my ideas about how to. So this helped me greatly in seeing that I do have the right ideas! My favorite tip was taking at least 10 favorite meals and learning how to substitute for plant based options, I didn’t think of that, and thats the thing I think I needed to hear to help me to actually start, combined with all other ideas. Thank you for sharing! peace and blessings🙌🏾🙌🏾

I have been vegan on and off for several yrs now, but I recently committed to doing it full time. It’s been only 2 months, but I’m hardly missing meat. I think w/ anything in life you just need to prepare. I have been making extra amounts of dishes and just freezing them for those days when I don’t feel like cooking. I have always loved mushrooms, but the variety I am using is expanding and I’m enjoying the experimentation. Having well seasoned food is helping my taste buds not miss meat. I also have Cava on deck so if I need to order a healthy vegan takeout then it’s my go to. I bring granola bars or little snacks w/ me for whenever I’m out and I get hungry and the meat temptation wants to creep in and catch me off guard. Being gentle with myself as been helpful. I’m not following any rules, just doing what serves my body best and asking the Lord 🙏🏾 for His guidance.

Thank you ShaKayle for your inspiring videos. I have been considering transitioning to vegan for years, but when I wanted to my nutrition team in 2017 warned against for one reason or another, however digestion systems loved but weigh lost slow down. I was fine with that fact but they were not needless to saw there words still echo in my head, “ plant based is not a one step solution for everyone. It doesn’t provide enough protein among other nutrients.” This make me look 👀 the other direction through my body started to have similarities as before. Which brings me to my point now. Thanks to influencers as your self and research I am finding my way back to something I inspired to for my own reason and my body is appreciating. The truth is that they didn’t check my blood levels at the time.

i have attempted 4 times to become vegan and every time i did something wrong. the main thing i did was start cold turkey and threw everything that wasn't plant based out of my fridge. i didn't plan my meals at all so i would walk around the store and get mostly junk or things i knew i didn't like but felt like i needed. i had a few recipes written down but wasn't in the right mindset to actually cook them and meal prep. watching this video really helps because i'm going to take it slow. i know meat doesn't satisfy me and i'm lactose intolerant so i need to cut these things out. but before i do that, i'm going to take the time to plan out my meals and make sure i am going to be both satisfied hunger wise and also emotional and mentally wise. thank you! and i'm going to take a look at more of your videos. i plan on slowly incorporating vegan meals until i'm 100% comfortable switching over completely.

I really need mean ideas especially because I have food allergies and I don't like certain foods. I really want to learn how to make tofu, mushrooms or any vegetables look and tastes like meat. I miss eating meat ONLY because it's filling but I don't wanna eat meat at all. I need help with my meals badly.

I went vegan cold turkey and I fall off after one year. I feel like I can start again but I'm going to go pescatarian this time only because I like having salmon every now and then. I love love love your content.

I'm working on becoming Vegan/ vegetarian and I am proud of some of the changes I've made so far. Got a ways to go, but I'm going in the right direction. One challenge that I've found so far is that everything does not taste good.

Love the content. What are your thoughts on oil free cooking? As oil is high in calories

@Shakaylafelice Жыл бұрын

I don't see anything wrong with oil free cooking as long as you enjoy what you eat!

Hi, what kind of matcha do you recommend. There’s so many options and I’m a bit overwhelmed 😅

Fun fact about protein….Protein is only made in plants. It’s pretty difficult to NOT get enough protein. In fact protein deficiency is INCREDIBLY rare, medically speaking I’ve found out!!

I’m attempting to incorporate more plant based recipes into my diet because I have texture sensitivities that are mostly driven by meat and therefore I tend not to eat enough protein :/

I just joined your channel to learn more and start more clean eating. I have a question though, you said food is healing, but even plant based can be healthy correct? If so, what makes it? I geinuly want to know as I am trying to no jeopardize the taste.

I'm happy you're here! Are you asking if plant based can be unhealthy?

Good morning Ms Shakayla. I live in London, England. I have been following your page for sometime, and i have noticed that you have lost some weight. How much weight have you lost? Will you be doing a Q & A session soon?

@Shakaylafelice 8 ай бұрын

Hi!! Thank you for tuning in. Im not comfortable discussing weight gain/loss on my channel but have really enjoyed eating more whole foods on a weekly basis versus ultra processed foods.
