We recently embarked on a 10-day potato-based diet called “Mary’s Mini.” We originally set out to complete 10 days of this “challenge,” but decided to extend it an extra 8 days. In this video, we give a recap of what we’ve been eating, how we’ve been feeling and how much weight we’ve lost!

I adore the two of you. Even if a viewer/subscriber doesn't have your amount of weight to lose, you are inspirational in life and grit and positive relationships.

Since I retired on May 1st and have the time to cook now I am finding it difficult to get my tiny kitchen and pantry set up for vegan eating! I don’t own any appliances other than the oven and fridge. I have been practically living at the Amazon and Vitamix websites, lol, and finding and watching different vegan channels to watch. You two are SO real and down-to-earth, I just love it! Thank you for being here and thank you for being such an inspiration for me! 🙏♥️

Vegan physician and don't bother if you doing it for their reason to lose weight only. The world doesn't need another I'm doing it to lose weight vegan and I have sent them to another Channel and two other studies regarding the doctor's plan they are following and he has been debunked for the last I don't know how many years. It is a safe way to get yourself sick! Most people can't follow his advice and be okay. Dr. Elizabeth MD Ph.D

@catspajamas2961 4 жыл бұрын

Elizabeth Shaw What a horrible thing to say - the world doesn't need another I'm doing it to lose weight vegan. Anyone can be vegan for whatever reason they want, and people can lose weight how they want. You're not the boss of anyone here, not to mention insinuating that the world doesn't need someone. Awful, just awful. And what "doctor" has grammar like this: "if you doing it for their reason to lose weight only." And the next sentence is total gobbledygook. I don't believe you graduated from college, much less medical school.

Congrats on the weight loss! I know how you feel Brian! When my weight dropped into the 200’s again I felt so happy. It had been decades in the 3’s for me. Now I am at 220 and looking to the 100’s. So exciting. You both inspire me. We turned vegan 2 years ago and are feeling fine. I am not sure about the Mary’s mini...but still thinking about it.
