    My wife and I have cut most of the meat from our diet (down to 1lb a week). We are reducing dairy. We are watching your videos together and figuring out the next steps in our transition. Thank you for the info. I got Dr. Gregger’s cookbook after watching your interview. Thanks for the information and motivation!

    Thanks so much for this video. I became vegan during the pandemic and that was over 3 years ago. January of 2023, I decided to get into fitness and hire a personal trainer because I was out of shape and didn’t like where I was. June of 2023, I started running by joking a 5k run with my personal trainer. November of 2023, I ran my first half marathon. And now I’m training for my first full marathon which is going to be in March of 2024. My plant-based diet has helped me find the athlete inside of me. From being a couch potato to a marathoner in less than a year! I’m so excited to follow you guys as I continue my fitness journey while saving animals and our planet!

      @@TheVeganGym Thank you for your reply! By the way I'm 45 years old and I thought I would never be able to run! I'm Filipino and in my culture, we have a narrow window of tolerance for exercise and we're only encouraged to finish college! Also, it's hard to find Filipino and vegan in one sentence! Your videos have inspired to be the best vegan I can be so I can influence my community to adapt this lifestyle.

    I’m also a Marine Veteran/cancer survivor (x2…thank you 1980’s camp Lejeune) and NOW plant based! Thank you for your service to our country and the Corps! And thank you for your channel . I follow Chris Work and his square one program. But lost 15 pounds and am now super skinny. I am NED currently and want to build muscle again! As a Marine I have always enjoyed endurance/resistance training but have had little energy to do so. Very excited to try some of your meal plans while still trying to stick with some of Chris’ recommendations for long term cancer survival! Semper Fi Marines!

    Went wfpb 5 years ago, me and my family decided to change our diet because my husband got ill, medication wasn't working, infact it was making things worse, he too did his homework into the best healthiest diet. He tried other diets like keto 1st, then discovered wfpb and we've never looked back. He's know well and fitter than every. Just wanted to share x

    Its awesome to see other people comprehending the logic and well-being of plant proteins.
    Most people think its tough and aggressive to eat meat and dairy, which I think is an apocalyptic outlook on life, not to mention all the blood and gore thats associated with meat consumption, especially the deforestation of life giving rainforests for our planet that gets destroyed for farming, we'll end up with a very very hot dessert of a planet.
    All I can say to all this is GOD HELP US 🙏

    Wow you're story is so inspiring to me. I always seem to get into an argument with people that believe being vegan wouldnt be healthy bc of not enough protein. I have been a vegetarian when I was younger and felt better. I have found out I'm allergic to gluten and dairy so I'd like to go full vegan. Do you get enough protein? Should I be a vegan if I have low iron and a problem absorbing nutrients? I take vitamins and eat ok but I'm always anemic. I'm always low on iron, b12, vitamin d. Any tips or advice would help..thanks! I'm happy for your life change ❤❤❤

    • @TheVeganGym
      @TheVeganGym  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Amanda, thank you so much for commenting! You can absolutely meet your protein requirements on a vegan diet, we recently did a video on high protein vegan meal prep that you can check out for some inspiration. We also cover micronutrients such as iron and B12: th-cam.com/video/AQxG258gOx8/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgxvkWOPYx6YGWXeE_N4AaABAg
      Many people (not just vegans!) have Vitamin D deficiency, and while there are vegan B12 options such as fortified plant milks and fortified nutritional yeast, I recommend taking a supplement for both to ensure you reach adequate levels. Leafy greens and tofu are great sources of vegan iron!
