This article is originally published on Freedom from Diabetes website, available here. In recent years, plant-based nutrition has gained significant popularity, because they have a many heath benefits. And also good for weight managment. And people also understood this, how it is helpfull for us. So more and more people are turning to plant-based diets to shed excess pounds while enjoying a host of other advantages like improved overall health, reduced risk of chronic diseases, and a lower environmental impact. Plant-based foods are packed with essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytochemicals. This nutrient density ensures that you receive the necessary nourishment while cutting back on calorie-dense, processed foods.

Here we understand its benefits one by one.

Reduced Caloric Density: Plant-based diets tend to be lower in caloric density, meaning you can eat more volume of food for fewer calories. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts are rich in fiber and water, making you feel full and satisfied with fewer calories.

Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Plant-based diets have been shown to enhance insulin sensitivity, reducing the risk of insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. Stable blood sugar levels can curb excessive hunger and cravings, aiding in weight management.

Enhanced Gut Health: A diet rich in plant-based foods promotes a diverse and healthy gut microbiome. A balanced gut microbiome is in turn associated with better metabolism and reduced inflammation, both of which play a role in weight control.

Lower Saturated Fat: Plant-based diets are naturally low in saturated fat, found predominantly in animal products. Reduced consumption of saturated fat can help lower cholesterol levels and contribute to weight loss.

Practical Tips for Plant-Based Weight Loss

Embrace Whole Foods: Focus on whole, unprocessed plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Minimize or eliminate processed plant-based foods like vegan desserts and snacks.

Portion Control: While plant-based foods are generally lower in calories, portion control is essential. Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating.

Balanced Meals: Your means should include mix of carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats to maintain energy levels and satiety.

Include Protein Sources: Ensure an adequate intake of plant-based protein sources such as tofu, tempeh, legumes, and quinoa to support muscle maintenance and promote fullness.

Healthy Fats: Incorporate sources of healthy fats like avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil in your diet to support overall health and satisfaction.

This is most of what I had to eat yesterday. I’m trying to intuitively eat, and I ended up eating too little. I wasn’t hungry at all yesterday, but I’m trying to do better today.

I also had some popcorn with nutritional yeast.

once my foe, now my food.

[runveganwankerrun]

Mon 27th May '24

I'm really proud of myself. I've completed week one of the couch to 5k. Three run/walks. It's a double edged feeling. I'm pleased I've done it, but I can't help going back to what I've achieved in the past, and wondering how I let myself get so unfit and unrunnery.

If someone was telling me they'd completed week one, I'd be all over them, telling them how great it is. Why aren't I treating myself the same way?

Plus points. I went out there. I found it very difficult to talk myself into running in the middle of the day, in broad daylight. I kept putting it off, telling myself that I'd get up in the morning, and do it then, when there was no one about. I'm talking 5.30am. I never did it. I kept chickening out. But there's not a day has gone past since last November when I haven't told myself that I'd go for a run, and it's been the same amount of time since I've managed to do it more than once. I ran once in November, once in February and once some other time. Three runs in six months.

This week, I ran three times. All run/walks, as the C25K prescibes, but three runs in a week, nonetheless. And it was at 10 or 11am, since the early thing wasn't happening.

It was tough and sweaty. I used to "enjoy" tough and sweaty, in that fucked up way that runners do. Not any more. But I didn't want/need to boke, so I'm already ahead of the game.

I also walked on the days that I didn't run, so made sure I left the house and got out into the world. I've been a bit in danger of becoming a recluse, sitting at home, on my ever expanding arse, crocheting, eating shite and watching Judge Judy. I've been eating no shite for a couple of weeks now, making my own sauerkraut, which means I'm getting a great amount of veg, good fibre and all the good bacteria my greedy gut desires. It helps to fill me up. I've eaten too much sugar in the way of grapes and bananas, but even that's a win, coz it's full of fibre and vitamins and minerals, and it's not crisps and Ben & Jerry's. The worst thing I ever did was discover vegan friendly Ben & Jerry's! As I ran today, my favourite tee shirt did not ride up over my belly as much as before, so I think there's a minuscule improvement in flabberosity there! A couple of weeks of no shite, two portions a day of fermented food, and some exercise is already making a difference.

Is it bad that my fave tee is my fave, not only because it's almost big enough to fit comfortably, but because it's my first ever marathon tee? It's my way of showing anyone who cares to look that I've run a marathon, despite what my running looks like now. Such ego!

I'm trying very hard to make this about health, both bodily and mental, rather than weight. I want to enjoy running again. Yes, being lighter will help that, but a generally fit body will do that too, rather than just a light one. I want to smile when I'm running, be glad to see people, instead of worrying about how I look. I know my gait has changed, my posture, my stride. I'm so shuffley now, in comparison to how I was. I need to forget "how I was" and get into how I am now. Things will improve with time, so long as I keep going. Just half an hour a day is enough to make a HUGE differrence, and it won't be long till I can see it in my running. SO KEEP IT UP, YOU RUNNING VEGAN WANKER!

As I run, I'm listening to a book called The Slow AF Run Club, by Martinus Evans. It's helping me a lot. This is a guy who started running way heavier than me. If he can do it, I sure as fuck can too.

Gratitude Journal Entry (6/30/24)

Today I'm Grateful For:

*My mental reset day!!!

*That I have new motivation to lose weight. For the next 3 weeks I'm doing a plant-based diet (to see if it'll help my bloating) and I have a Pilates workout I just got that's about 40 minutes. Really looking forward to seeing the aftereffects!

*That I got my poem done yesterday and that I actually liked it! That's how I know that writing is my dream and that I'm not following someone else's dream for my life. I could never listen to myself sing, but I can read my own writing, and I could spend all day writing.

Something I'm Proud Of:

That I am more self-assured and don't feel the need to do what others expect me to do simply to please them. It took a while and caused a lot of distress, but I've finally realized my own dream.

Tomorrow I'm Looking Forward To:

The official start of my writing challenge. EEP!!! For what I want to do, I'm going to have to do multiple poems a day (which there's no daily limit). Since I'm just getting into this, it's going to be a challenge, but I'm happy at the thought of spending most of my day focusing on writing. Despite how thrilled I am of getting started, I do have doubts: Will I be good enough? Will my poems be stupid? Will what I want to share come across how I want it to? But if I don't do this, I will spend the rest of my life regretting it and wondering what would have happened had I faced my fear.

Whenever I crave something non-plant based, I immediately search for the alternatives.

It’s amazing how much is out there. I've been able to soothe every craving.

60 days into my journey and there’s nothing I crave that I can’t get from plants. I love it here. 💚🌱
