Go high carb, low fat, whole foods, plant-based VEGAN! It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle change. I went vegan this year and have lost 40 pounds, with minimal exercise, and eating AS MUCH as I desire bringing down my BMI from 30 to 24. I weigh less now than I did throughout high school, as an overweight teenager, even when I exercised for hours while on Junior Varsity and Varsity sports teams. I went to my annual physical earlier this month, and even my doctor was in shock.
My goal for next year is to lose 30-40 more pounds, I just need to start exercising on a regular basis. Nothing crazy, just 30-60 minutes of jogging, Ballet Beautiful, bike riding.. things like that.
I think it's amazing what I've accomplished so far, just by changing my diet, though. It's a lot easier to go vegan than it seems. I was never vegetarian, I went from being able to eat an entire box of pizza or entire tub of ice cream in one sitting to a full-fledged vegan. I now spend a lot less money on groceries, have more energy (never need caffeine, and never feel lethargic like I used to on a regular basis), have more concentration, am learning to cook, and etc. Try it for a week, that's how I started, and I felt so good that I just kept going, and it's now been 5 months! You can get every nutrient from plant foods, including protein!

The only vitamin you need to supplement is B12, and one I personally recommend is Garden of Life's B12 spray (cause I personally hate swallowing pills, and methylcobalamin is better than cyanocobalamin). You can buy it at any health foods store (Whole Foods, Sprouts, Trader Joe's, etc.), or online.

You do not have a eating disorder! It happens to everyone, even me. It's because you wait too long to eat. Your body already feels horrible because you haven't filled it up, then when you finally eat, you feel sick because you waited too long. Try to eat a snack every hour or 2, and remember to have your 3 meals a day. Eat snacks and you'll be fine! hope that helps!

You would know if you had an eating disorder. You may have just some type of problem where you don't feel hungry. An eating disorder is a psychological disorder. I had one and it's something that consumes your every thought 24/7. Every night you go to sleep thinking about what you can't eat the next day. And when you eat a lot, it's a binge of things that don't make sense. Anything in the freezer, refrigerator. Your body goes into this mode where you pick up anything because it cannot take the starvation anymore. The guilt of eating is so big, you throw up, over exercise, or starve yourself the next day or the next week. If you are experiencing these symptoms, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE seek help. Once you start bingeing, it's a harder cycle to stop than is not eating. It's easier to introduce food than to take away food when you are underweight or went through a period of starving. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you can ask me any questions because I know a lot. But, please don't hesitate to seek help.
God bless xoxo
