I love Kiki! She was the one who got me started on my journey. I lost 2.5 sizes in my 60's. I'm not skinny, but no high blood pressure, high cholesterol, arthritis, or any meds. Love you guys!

Dropped seven prescription drugs and lost forty pounds by cutting out the processed foods and processed sugar. I have kept it off for eleven years. This is not easy to do, but definitely possible to the committed. In time your taste will desire the healthy foods. Although you will have to tough it until the shift takes place.

As far as body shaming goes, it really does have a lifelong negative impact. I had cycstic acne that left scars. I am 56 now and I still remember when I was in my mid 20's I had someone's toddler on my lap and they pointed to my acne scars and asked me "what's wrong with your face"? That innocent question was BURNED into my brain...I finally feel like I am almost past that!

I have lost 21 pounds, since the beginning of 2023. I changed to a plant based diet. I do eat salmon once a week and mackerel occasionally. I fast from 7PM until 11AM. I am eating wonderful, delicious food and am having no issues with the partial daily fast. I am so thankful for these changes!

When you guys talked about the pressure during family or social outings, I felt that on Easter! Not so much that they were pressuring me to eat other food but, just the overwhelming amount of misinformation! My SIL was saying that we aren’t rabbits so we shouldn’t eat lettuce in particular or any raw veggies. Then another person was saying- you’ve never seen a fat farmer! Umm…yes I have And, they probably have heart issues. These people homestead with animals and eat the animals. It made my skin crawl the way they were talking farming and then all the fatty dairy and meat they eat. 😭

You can't change people. My mother's family are farmers. Several of them died in their 50"s. Many have diabetes. Almost all are obese. They make fun of me because I get out & walk when I visit. They say, "She's just trying to show us up." My husband was the same. He died at 48.

@runnerolive3759 15 күн бұрын

annemccarron it is so sad to see relatives waste away their lives like that. But what can we do. They were too weak to change. "You were showing them up" They could join you instead they choose failure. So sad.

I was a taco bell guy but honesty the foods I eat today are just as tasty and satisfying. Granted, it's work to make them but it's not much. My main meal today is whole wheat pasta and black beans with cayenne pepper. I'm a simple man and eat it every day usually also eat oatmeal, kale, oranges, bananas and carrots. I was technically obese for a brief period around age 40. I got down to a bmi 27: still not good, but worse considering I had a pretty large waist size. After going whole food-plant based 6 years ago all of those problems just vanished, and permanently.

AMEN KIKI !!I always felt like I had to suffer to lose weight! Now I can get comfortably full and have lost 30 lbs on a wfpb eating!! Only 5 more pounds to go. Also I have Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I WAS able to lose 16 pounds on keto, but had a gallbladder attack and had to stop. Of course the weight came right back. I do plan cheat days. Holidays and birthdays 😆 I enjoy every bite, but I have to be careful because I made myself sick one birthday party because I got FULL on rich food. I make smaller portions now. Also I get one single serve sweet per week, without guilt, and enjoy every bite. I don’t keep ANY other types of foods that aren’t wfpb in the house. I have a grown grandson and had to tell him to keep his treats in his room. I’ve seen other people who had their family members use containers with locks for their lunch meat, cheese etc, because they can’t handle the cravings. Desperate times call for desperate measures lol. I love Kiki and just bought her Plantifully Lean cookbook. I watched hers and other wfpb videos daily for the first 6 months to learn and keep me motivated 💜 I urge everyone to give it a try. Any diet that you can’t stick with for life will not work ultimately!

Realize this is an older interview, but with the mention of good fibers, veggies, etc, an older individual with no medical issues will still see changes in their bodies ability to digest these good foods that were no problem a few years prior. Filling half a plate with even great salad greens can produce extreme bloated issues the following morning : ).
