I appreciate your story, but like you literally said 130ish pounds is chunky. Really? I do not understand that way of thinking.
Yes my Girl if people still didn't get the message from plantbased eating what the BENIFITS are, they miss out alot. Glad you enjoyed plantbased. 🥝🥦🥔🥑🍅🥕🍎👍
It was encouraging for me to hear you talk about the little treats that made this diet sustainable. It’s the coffee, creamer and occasional latte for me too! Thank you for sharing:)
I’m just past 4 months and I’m down 37 pounds! It’s been life-changing already and I never would have guessed it could be this easy to eat this clean. I don’t plan on ever stopping!
I'm just starting out on my journey. I hope I'm successful!
I’m a beans and rice girl too! Mexican too 😊
You are super adorable,
You did good🤗 keep up the great work❣️
would b much better if you put in bowls/on plates etc with the foods you ate on a counter with camera focused on each one, listing the ingredients and how to make, for breakfast/lunch/dinner and what snacks/amts you consumed, and a scale showing weekly weight loss with head to toe pic weekly pics in spandex to visualize the shape change. instead of just a head talking, although you are pleasant looking enough and talk fine…for next time…
I am so happy to have just stumbled across your channel! I am a fellow petite mexican and was brought up eating the traditional cuisine along with good old American fast food… there were 6 of us kids and we know how much cheaper drive thru where in the 80's and 90's. I am 5'1 and find it super hard to relate to eating and workouts that taller people post because it doesn't make it more difficult to loose weight when your a small person. I have also lost about 35-40 pounds it fluctuates within that range… you know how it goes. Thank you for your content and I am happy to be your newest subscriber!😇🙏
How tall are you?
🙏🏾 Thank you very helpful
You are right I feel so much better I am never going back!
I love beans and rice! I always have them in my refrigerator! Always!
I am on day 23 wfpb and have lost 11.2lbs. Just ran into this video of yours! Good job! Gives me hope
I eat nice cream pretty much daily. I don't bother with smoothies much, but nice cream is how I get my fruit in. I feel like I get to enjoy a nice little dessert every day!
Are you on Instagram? Would love to follow your journey. I need all the encouragement I can get.
You had me at beans and rice! Lol. Another fellow Latina here! Soooooo happy to have found your channel!
I hope this works for me 🤕. I'm on week two and haven't lost a single pound. I will give it a month and if it doesn't work I don't know what I'll do
Que pena que no tengas vídeos en español! 😔
The fat we eat is the fat we wear! The body burns up those yummy natural carbs and stores all the fats. So happy to have found this way of life!
Thank YOU!!!!!!
I love how you said losing the weight is a side effect. Just feeling good is amazing. Great job 👏🏽
Congratulations on such a great accomplishment! 👏👏 I was vegan from 2016-2019. I lost weight at first but then became a junk food, processed food vegan 😔 I gained weight & it discouraged me and I fell off the wagon. Now, I am struggling with weight gain and high blood pressure, ugh! So, I am recommitting and this time doing oil free WFPB. Thanks for sharing your experience!

One suggestion…you may want to write a script beforehand for a smoother presentation…a viewer can see you thinking thru what you want to say. It would be crisper if you have a script to keep the chat focused & avoid repetition. 🙂
I Love dark chocolate and it keeps me from binging… is it ok?
Funny that you say spinach is bitter. I find spinach to be a very mild green vegetable (and I’m someone that absolutely cannot drink coffee because it’s too bitter no matter what I add to it). Its amazing how much taste buds can vary person to person, and even with the same person over time. Also, if you’re someone that doesn’t like arugula, this is a veggie that is amazing in soups. You don’t get any of that spicy strong flavor you get with raw arugula.
Well done!
How tall are you if you don't mind me asking? I'm 5 ft tall and aiming for between 102 and 113 lbs. Been eating mostly WFPB since May 2021 and lost about 6 lbs so far! Currently at 118.
Beans & rice are delicious with salsa!! I could eat Mexican food every meal 👍🏻
Amazing congrats …thank you for sharing
What u order when u go to eat out?
This is inspiring, thanks, because I like how you are so positive about your surprise of not expecting the results from the diet but it just working. It was the same with me. I may have said it before in another comment but I went on starch solution to lower cholesterol since it was going up and I tried 'no sugar' and my cholesterol went up even more. So after going whole food-plant based, it dropped from 215 mg/dl to 125. 4+ years it's been the same and I don't bother getting it checked. Blood pressure is normal when before it was not, and heart rate was too high also, both controlled by medicine. I stopped taking medicine with doctor supervision and both are normal.
I, too eat nice cream! My recipe for nice cream is 2-3 bananas, frozen for 12 hours after breaking up, and 6-9 grams of cacao. I am probably going to reduce the amount of cacao just to save money cause I pride myself on being frugal. I blend with some amount of water so it mixes better, but not too much. I like it thicker.
My usual meals during weight loss, which will be over in less than 2 pounds: whole wheat pasta, and canned black beans with salt, and spinach on the side. Then, I also eat 15 ounces of baked potato slices during weight loss: Important for me for reduced calorie density. I use salsa or salt to taste.
As you eat plants your gut bacteria population changes and a lot of food cravings are actually from the gut bacteria so they keep telling you too eat plants. The bacteria that eat fast food and oil and fat goes down in population so they stop telling you to eat that.
Thanks so much for sharing! Very inspiring! I have been eating by the starch solution for 5 months but way too many compromises so my weight loss has been slow. I needed to refocus, thank you! Love being vegan and whole food based! ❤️
just found your channel, you are so cute, glad you found the way to good health is through a WFPB diet, I have been following Dr. McDougall for awhile. My favorite meal, black beans and rice with pineapple salsa, so yummy. I never gave up my coffee either, my favorite creamer..Silk almond milk creamer caramel flavor..so good
I have quite a bit of back pain too. To clarify, within the first month your back was feeling better?
