Going vegan for 21 days

[ykdadamaja]

Hey guys,

I'm on this Daniel fast for 21 days until Jan 21. No meat or meat bi-products- including milk, butter and cheese- for 21 days. Just fruits and vegetables. This is called a Daniel fast. Second day in, and I don't feel bad or any ill effects.

Spoke to my doctor before I started it and she encouraged it. I have been losing pounds slowly prior to this too and my doctor advised me of the steady decrease in weight. Let us see if the next 21 days plus my continued running regimen and gym attendance could get me to a point where I am proud of myself.

So far eating these fruits and veggies are okay. Made me a nice vegetable soup today and it is so tasty. Tofu has supplemented meat and while I won't lie that I don't see a difference, tofu ain't bad.

Good luck with the diet. Try making it a lifestyle that you will carry on and keep the exercise going.

Nice start to the year.

good luck, I went Vegan for over 2 years... has its pros and cons in the end I just got pissed off being ripped off for almond milk and my bones just didn't feel they where getting enough to be strong enough to lift and run... but your skin, cholesterol and mind will benefit tenfold if you keep to healthy vegan stuff.

I'm worried about the bones part and the lifting weights part. But, went to the gym today and I don't feel any less stronger had I been eating meat. It's still early yet, but I will monitor my activity.

The first time I went vegan was over 30 years ago. I felt the difference. Lost a few teeth in the process, but don't feel like it was an overall bad experience.

Best of luck mate. I don’t profess to be an expert, but The thing about challenges like this are
the mental benefit you get from proving you can do it.
And then when it’s done, you don’t need to continue forever , but it would be good to incorporate some of it into a normal diet and lifestyle moving forward so your balance is better.
